...game as a result of Foster's fumble, and was scored by Lamson in four rushes from the 10-yard line. When Harvard quickly followed with a touchdown in 11 rushes from--the 10-yard line, helped by two 5-yard penalties for Torrey's aggressiveness, and Burr kicked the goal which tied the score, few doubted that the Harvard team had begun to play its game and would keep Pennsylvania on the defense for the rest of the time. During the first half this was true as far as the latter team's ability to gain was concerned...
Both teams were forcesd to punt frequently and although Burr's kicks were about equal to Sheble's in length, the Pennsylvania ends were faster in getting down the field and thus gave their team the advantage on nearly every exchange. As soon as Parker was taken out it became evident that Harvard's weak places were the three centre positions.

Brill added a yard and, on a divided play without interference, Foster gained four more. Pennsylvania was twice penalized for offside play and three...
...line. Lockwood went through centre for seven yards with Squires back, and the latter added five more. On a split play Hurley gained four yards and Squires followed with an equal distance through Hobson. Harvard then lost 15 yards for Brill's holding and on a fake formation with Burr back, Hurley was thrown by Folwell for a two-yard loss. He fumbled when tackled and the ball went to Pennsylvania in mid-field. Parker was ruled out here for unnecessary roughness and was replaced by White. After a penalty Sheble punted to Foster on the 35-yard line. Harvard...
