A closely contested game was played on the Cambridge Common yesterday afternoon between the Cambridge High School and the freshman eleven. Cambridge had the strongest team in the field while the freshmen were obliged to play two substitutes. The only point of the first half was a touchdown for '92 by Wrenn. No goal. During this half the ball was kept in Harvard's territory most of the time and Cambridge did better team work than Harvard.
In the second half, Cambridge started off with the ball and by a series of vigorous rushes brought it to Harvard's line. Burns soon made a touchdown. No goal. For the rest of the half Harvard kept the ball well up into Cambridge territory and a moment before time was called, Brooks made a good sport across the line and scored a touchdown. Goal by Forbes. Brooks, Forbes and Draper all rushed well for Harvard and Newell did the best work in the rush-line. Corbitt's rushes for Cambridge were a feature of the game. Following were the teams:
Harvard Freshmen-Curtis, Chase, Heard, Hunt, Travis, Newell, Wrenn; quarter-back, Neff; half-backs, Brooks and Draper; full-back, Forbes,
Cambridge High Schoot-Whittemore, Wrenn, Thayer, Haynes, Rogers, Clark, Mulford; quarter-back, Stevens; half-backs, Corbitt and Whitman; full-back, Burns. Mr. Baker '92 was referee.
