The first game of the Freshman eleven, which was played with Exeter on Soldiers Field, Saturday afternoon, resulted in a tie, neither side being able to score. The Freshmen played a mediocre game. They tackled well, but fumbled a great deal and ran too high. Only once, in the second half, did it seem likely that they would score, but the ball was lost and Brill quickly punted it out of danger. Exeter, on the other hand, played a sharp and fast game, but missed the chance to score by attempting four goals from the field, which were all unsuccessful. Had they adopted a line-plunging policy they might well have scored, for the Harvard eleven seemed unable to check their rushes. On the whole, the Freshmen played a poorer game than the Freshman eleven did last year, when Exeter was defeated 10 to 0. That game, however, was played two weeks later in the season.
Baldwin ran the team well and was strong on the defense. Fox played the best game in the line. The line-ups follow: Freshmen -- Campbell, Story, l.e.; Cudahy, l.t.; Ayer, l.g.; Sugden, c.; Riggs, r.g.; Fox, r.t.; Clark, Macdonald, r.e.; Baldwin, q.b.; Hersey, Lennon, Knowles, l.h.; Derby, r.h.; Stillman, f.b. Exeter--Burgess, r.e.; Jones, r.t.; Cooney, r.g.; Gilman, c.; Brill, l.g.; Hogan (capt.), l.t.; Rockwell, l.e.; Belknap, q.b.; Humrichouse, r.h.; Scott, Dearborn, l.h.; Dillon, f.b.
