Before the scrimmage there was a long practice in blocking and breaking through on punts. The defensive team was under a disadvantage as the opposing team could devote its entire attention to breaking through, instead of being forced to watch for fake kicks. Brill and Leonard did the kicking and Leonard's punts had good form and distance. White's passing for the punts was unsteady. After the scrimmage the backs were given work in starting and the linemen tried picking up the ball...
...yard line and a touchdown was soon made. Jones, the substitute quarter-back distinguished himself in this half. Once he ran back a punt 35 yards and a second time with only three minutes left to play scored a touchdown after a 30-yard run on a fake kick.

After Matthews' place had been taken by Pruyn, Shevlin ran Sperry's kick-off in 19 yards to his 29-yard line. Parker stopped a fake kick without gain and Hoyt punted to Starr, who ran the ball back 11 yards from Harvard's 43-yard line.

Yale lost 15 yards for holding and Hoyt punted...
