...vindictive wind which had been of no service in the first half, suddenly rising to a half gale, so that the flag-staff bent, I could not imagine what instructions you could give the men. In the face of it all to carry the ball 80 yards without once losing it and to a touchdown, was a feat not often seen on any field. I trust we shall never hear again of Harvard's lacking sand.

No team should be allowed to wear the "H" unless it has the standing in the University which firm establishment and general popularity alone can give it.

Although the score was always against them, they played with great spirit and pluck, never once stopping. The way in which the ball was rushed 70 yards by short rushes without being lost once, and a touchdown scored, was as good a piece of football work as any Harvard team has ever done...
