BROWN BEATEN 18-0.

Brown was beaten by Harvard last Saturday by the score of 18 to 0. Not only was Brown prevented from scoring, but only once did she force the ball into Harvard's territory to any alarming extent, and that through Harvard's carelessness in fumbling the second kick-off. The Brown eleven were clearly outplayed. They succeeded in gaining their distance by rushing, only three times, and were unable to hold the Harvard line for downs. Harvard, on the other hand, plunged through their line almost at will, and proved herself to be unusually strong on the defense, Brown being held for downs at four different stages of the game. Brown undoubtedly was weakened by the loss of their star back and captain, Fultz, and adding to this a weak line, and the effects of their hard game last Wednesday, it is generally conceded that they put a weaker team in the field Saturday than that sent against Yale last week.

Nevertheless Harvard's game was very encouraging, as it brought out the best football that has been seen on Soldiers Field this year. The defensive work of the team was unusually effective, as with the exception of a few end runs by Gammons, the line was found to be practically invulnerable. Swain showed up the most promisingly of the forwards. He was always in the game, and by his opening of holes on fake kicks, probably did as much as any one toward helping his backs on the long runs that these plays always netted. He was very aggressive, and repeatedly tackled behind the opponents line. Doucette and Shaw both did their share in tackling and stopping centre plays. On the ends, Cabot was not quite up to his usual form, allowing Gammons to circle his end three times. He was always down the field well however, and never missed his man on punts. Richardson, on right end, stopped everything that came his way, besides doing some clever tackling and blocking off.

Throughout the game, the backs played with a commendable amount of snap, though there still seemed to be the old fault of either starting a little ahead of the signals and thus making a change necessary, or of starting slowly. The weakness of the Brown line unquestionably covered up a good many slow starts. Dibblee played his usual star game, and by following his interference more closely, covered much ground on end plays. Sullivan made many good gains until he was injured and forced to leave the game. Aside from his deplorable failures at goal kicking, and his fumble of the second kick-off, Brown played a fair game, rushing hard and tackling strongly at times.

Garrison ran the team with excellent judgement and backed up the line strongly on defensive play. He seems to be a shade better than Cochrane as he is quicker with the signals and gets into the interference better.
