Porter and Holden did almost all the playing for '88; their rushing and kicking was very fine. After Holden was disqualified the work all fell upon Porter, and although every man on the other side was laying for him, he made some remarkably plucky and brilliant rushes.

Willard's long kicks kept the ball from the '87 goal. Peabody played a faultless game, and Keyes, Faulkner and Fiske did good work...

...freshmen, Scott, Perry, Woodbury and Morgan did the best work, the latter's tackling being effective. Perkins made a number of fair catches. Of the sophomores, Porter, Woodman, Noble and Palmer are most worthy of special mention. '88 plays a good game, and with Holden on the team will possibly give '86 and '87 a hard tussle. The teams were made up as follows: '88, rushers, Bancroft, Stowell, Woodman, Churchill, Purdon, Hallowell, Crocker; quarter-back, Noble; half-backs, Porter and Palmer; full-back, Reynolds.
