...spite of the fact that Saturday's game at Groton was played in a snow storm, the freshmen showed improvement. The interference formed well but the ground was too slippery for sharp rushing. Most of ninety-nine's gains were made between tackle and end, Groton's heavy centre proving invincible. Sargent. who has been playing on the 'varsity squad, was a valuable addition at tackle.

Though Harvard men may look forward with confidence to the issue of the game, it can not be denied that the eleven will be much handicapped in playing on strange grounds. This can partly be made up by an enthusiastic assurance of interest and supply those who remain in Cambridge...
