...strong wind, blowing diagonally across the field, made accurate punting impossible. In the first half Coombs punted frequently, and had the slight advantage of the wind over Hallowell. The latter made some longer punts in the next half when he had the wind in his favor and gained over Coombs on every exchange. He was well supported by Campbell who made every punt count for its full distance...
...Freshmen scored their first touchdown from the twenty-five yard line, and Stillman kicked a difficult goal. A few minutes later Ladd plunged through centre and was tackled when Stillman secured the ball and ran it across the line for the second touchdown...
...downs when Daly scored on a clever criss-cross, and Lawrence kicked the goal. Soon after the kick-off the Indians were forced to punt but Ellis blocked the kick and fell on the ball. Daly, with Donald back, then attacked the Indian centre, and soon sent Ellis across the line for a touchdown. Lawrence missed the goal. During the rest of the half, the ball changed hands often. Once Metoxen broke through Lawrence for 40-yards, but was downed by Daly. Many tricks were tried by both teams but few were successful...

Campbell's playing was good. Burnett missed a goal from the forty-yard line, besides making some poor passes...

After more punting, Harvard obtained possession of the ball, and, by vigorous plunges at centre advanced it until Ellis finally carried it across the line. The touchdown was not allowed, however, because of holding in the line, and the ball was brought back and given to Brown. A successful trick on Campbell ran the ball back to the centre of the field, where Chesbro was disqualified for unfair play. Burnett then secured the ball...
