...game was an interesting one to watch. Harvard played a rushing and Yale a kicking game. During the second half when the Yale team had the wind at its back, their kicking tactics were very successful and kept Harvard on the defensive a considerable part of the time. But in the game as a whole the Harvard eleven easily demonstrated its superiority to the New Haven team. The rush line work of the freshmen, especially during the first half, was excellent. The whole line played steadily, and Hallowell, Upton and Ellsworth aroused enthusiasm again and again by their brilliant work...
...play. But at this point a bad pass lost Yale fifteen yards, and immediately afterwards Harvard secured the ball on four downs. After the ball had been worked near to Yale's goal line Tratford made an unsuccessful try for a goal from the field. Loose work by both teams followed putting the ball in play, and the ball stayed near the middle of the field. Lowry was disqualified for slugging, and Cartwright took his place. Trafford again tried for a goal from the field, but the distance was too great and the kick fell short. That ball was brought...

It will be no longer possible for men from other colleges to watch the Princeton team at practice, for the parts of the grounds where there was formerly no fence have been surrounded by a stone wall on the top of which is built a wooden fence eight feet high. The entire field now measures 570x500 yards. There will be laid out on it two base ball...
...pleasing contrast to the poor success of our university teams in recent years stands the record of victories won by the freshman teams. By defeating the Yale freshman eleven at New Haven Saturday, Ninety-three has added another victory to the long list. The game was played under discouraging circumstances,-on strange grounds and before spectators whose sympathies were almost entirely with the opposing team, and the credit of the victory is, therefore, all the greater. For in spite of the disheartening support received from the class, the freshman eleven played a steady game, not so good a game...
