...either team to be practically equal. Should the double and triple lateral passes which Yale has so successfully promulgated this season result in victory, the wide open game, the worth the result that the runner has made a substantial gain through the line.

...Saturday, Tufts began on their own 48-yard line, and in 9 straight rushes had the ball across the Harvard goal, an accomplishment which has seldom been seen in the Stadium. In all, Tufts rushed 52 times for a total of 266 yards, an average of 5 yards on each play; the University rushed 45 times for 187 yards, an average of four. Tufts made 17 first downs the University 12. Had not Tufts been penalized at critical moments, and if better judgment had been shown in the use of the forward pass, it is not unlikely that the eleven...

...yard dash will be fought out between representatives of Cornell, Michigan and Pennsylvania. All four men who placed last year, including J. E. Patterson, of Pennsylvania who tied the record of 9 4-5 seconds, will be in the finals tomorrow. Seldom has such a remarkable field of sprinters been gathered in one race. The five men to place will probably be Patterson and Lippincott, of Pennsylvania, Bond and Seward, of Michigan, and Reller, of Cornell. Since Bond has done 9 4-5 seconds this spring and since all are capable of 10 seconds flat, the winner is extremely doubtful...
