Clothier, pitted against an end of national reputation, showed himself not inferior to Shevlin, and played a game more sportsmanlike than that of his opponent. Captain Marshall at quarterback, played a remarkable game, handling punts reliably, running back the ball spiritedly and carrying the ball for long gains around end. If it had not been for poor judgment, in attempting a drop kick with the ball on Yale's 8-yard line and but two yards to go for first down, and again in calling on LeMoyne to punt from within the 15-yard line after he had clearly been...
...Yale players, Mitchell was preeminent, both in his kicking and general ability. Rockwell at quarter played an effective game and his dash and certainty in running off plays contributed no little to the team's success. In the line Hogan and Shevlin were the most effective men, but because of the work of their opponents failed to show up as brilliantly as previously.

All the Yale backs on their secondary defense were noticeably capable...

...Harvard's 5-yard line. Marshall runs the ball back 18 yards. LeMoyne punts out of bounds on Harvard's 15-yard line. Yale is evidently taking advantage of her punting ability to get the ball within striking distance of Harvard's goal. LeMoyne's punt is blocked, and Shevlin falls on the ball right behind goal for a touchdown. Mitchell fails to kick goal. The ball hits one of the goal posts and bounds back. Score: Yale, 10; Harvard...
