Pennsylvania scored on a pretty dropkick from the 20-yard line. For Harvard, Stillman played an excellent game, punting well, and running low and hard. He kicked six out of seven goals. Hersey was a good ground gainer, and Graydon did well at guard, often breaking through and tackling the runner for a loss. Clarke played a low and hard game...
...field, made accurate punting impossible. In the first half Coombs punted frequently, and had the slight advantage of the wind over Hallowell. The latter made some longer punts in the next half when he had the wind in his favor and gained over Coombs on every exchange. He was well supported by Campbell who made every punt count for its full distance...

Daly plays the same game as last year but Reid has fallen off. Kendall is a brilliant line bucker and Sawin dodges well.

Kennedy, left halfback, has recently shown great improvement in his work. He runs well with the ball, is strong on his feet, and is a sure tackler. Potter and Coombs, the ends, are very fast in getting down the field under kicks...
