Meanwhile, at number five, Harvard's only freshman, Larry Scott, pulled off an impressive come-from-behind win of his own over Jeff Sparr. Not playing at the top of his game, the lucky yardling survived a first-art loss by hitting a backhand winner to break serve at 6-5, three-all in the second set. Scott then finished off his opponent in the third...
...first touchdown was scored in the first five minutes of play. Sparr kicked off to W. J. Murray, who ran the ball back to the 30-yard line. Virginia was then penalized for being off-side, and on the next play R. Harte '17 skirted left end for a 25-yard gain. Only eight more plays were necessary before R. H. Bond '19 went over the goal line, and later kicked the goal. For the remainder of the period the University contented itself with trying a few rushes and then punting, and the Southerners did the same. At the beginning...
...University of Virginia eleven faces a difficult schedule of games, and she does not feel that she is overly equipped to make the best of it. There is but one backfield veteran available Captain Sparr, the fullback. Mayer Anderson and Rhodes, who made such an impression at New Haven and Cambridge, are not in college, and Tippett is not expected to return to the University.

...strong. This eleven last year won the championship of the sough and two weeks ago today, by using a carefully planned defense and by taking every advantage of its opponents' tactical mistakes, defeated Yale at New Haven by a 10 to 0 score. In attack, Virginia depends on Sparr's swift line smashes on Berkeley's shifty end runs, and no Thurman's long punts and dropkicks. So far the team has no showed a disposition toward the deceptive play for it has found speed, strength, and alertness quite sufficient for victory...
