...been improving rapidly, it is still a question whether he will play in tomorrow's game. The probability is that he will play, although the matter will not definitely be decided until just before the game. Kennard was in at fullback in the signal work, but Ver Wiebe will play most of the game if he does not start...
...hardest proposition before the coaches this year has been the selection of men for the backfield. Of the backs, Corbett, Kennard, Smith and Ver Wiebe never played behind the line before, and Cutler, at quarterback, is new to his position. The present set, Corbett, White and Ver Wiebe, or Kennard in case Burr does not play, is strong and fast. White and Ver Wiebe play hard, aggressive games and are both good line plungers. Corbett and Leslie, who alternate at left halfback, have proved the best ground gainers, and their running through a broken field is particularly good. Kennard...
...York will bring the team back to Cambridge. The following men will be taken: Captain Burr, R. C. Brown, G. G. Browne, Corbett, Crowley, Cutler, Cutting, Dunlap, Fish, Forchheimer, Galatti, Gray, Graydon, Hadden, Harding, Hoar, Houston, Kennard, Leslie, Long, McKay, Maguire, Nourse, Pope, Robinson, Smith, Sprague, West, White, Withington, Ver Wiebe; Managers Eggleston, Amory, and Scudder; Coaches Haughton, Campbell, Daly, Graves, and Kersburg...
...passes with wonderful coolness and punted well. MacKay, Nourse, Hoar, and Withington all played well. The work of the ends also showed improvement, Browne and Crowley doing extremely well. It is hard to discriminate in the back field. Corbett and White only netted four yards, and while Leslie and Ver Wiebe proved themselves hard line-plungers. These two men made good gains on Harvard's long rush down the field, and it was Leslie's plunge through right tackle that gave Harvard the touchdown. Smith did well during the short time he was in the game...
...yard line. Pollard made a fair catch of Cutler's punt on Dartmouth's 39-yard line, Sherwin was thrown for loss, and Pishon's onside kick went to Browne. Cutler failed to get off an onside kick, but recovered the ball on Dartmouth's 50-yard line. Ver Wiebe was sent in to take Kennard's place at full-back, and or his first two plays made twenty yards through the centre of the Dartmouth line. Corbett was downed on the 31-yard line, White made four yards and Corbett gained first down. Dartmouth had just got the ball...
