Burnett kicked off to Hudson, who ran back fifteen yards before he was downed by Donald. Attempts at gaining around Harvard's ends failed, and Miller punted. Gierasch, annoyed by the Indian ends, did not catch the ball cleanly and it rolled to one side. Redwater dropped on it, scrambled to his feet and broke away down a clear field. Daly caught him from behind, but too late to prevent a touchdown. Wheelock missed the goal...
Succeeding the next kick-off, both sides fumbled continually. After an exchange of kicks to Harvard's favor and an off-side play by Carlisle, Ellis rushed the ball to the Indian's 20-yard line on a fake kick, and by successful line-plunges, carried it to the five yard line. Here Carlisle held for two downs when Daly scored on a clever criss-cross, and Lawrence kicked the goal. Soon after the kick-off the Indians were forced to punt but Ellis blocked the kick and fell on the ball. Daly, with Donald back, then attacked the Indian...
...game between the Freshmen and St. Mark's at Southboro yesterday resulted in a tie, 5 to 5, each side missing the try for goal after the touchdowns. In the first half the Freshmen in less than five minutes scored by line plunges. During the rest of the half the Freshmen had a little the best of it, but were unable to score again, although Stillman barely missed a goal from the field. In the second half, St. Mark's gained repeatedly around Harvard's left end. On the five yard line, however, the Freshmen obtained possession of the ball...
...pass Roche by straight return-strokes as the latter covered the court with ease, without using any back-hand strokes. To offset this difficulty, he pursued from the outset the policy of steady accurate lobbing, thus forcing Roche to smash. Most of his returns passed Ward along the side lines, but owing to the difficulty of playing a steady smashing game accurately, many of them went outside...
Hallowell and Sawin were given a day's rest yesterday, and Burden directed the practice from the side-lines. Boal appeared in football clothes, but did not take part in the practice. Reid, Parker, Gierasch and Fincke were all in the line-up. The centre of the line was unexpectedly weak. So long as Burnett was in the game, the forwards were able to break through fast enough to stop the guards-back play before it started, but towards the end of the first half, gains were made steadily through Sargent, Hollingsworth and Barnard...
