...start a series of trick plays and unusual formations that entirely upset Harvard's defense. These plays resulted in a touchdown for Carlisle in less than five minutes. Then Harvard by a temporary rally took the ball to Carlisle's thirty-five yard line, where Daly kicked a field goal. This bit of individual playing alone kept the teams tied during the first half of the game, since Harvard was clearly outplayed during the rest of the half. Finally, however, toward the end of the game Harvard had more success in stopping Carlisle's attack, and through greater endurance...
...been unable to play his position well. Eaton was a little weak at his position in defense, and Graydon, who took his place, could open no holes. The guards and centre were slow and barely held their ground against lighter men. Daly hesitated noticeably in running in the open field and was a little slow at times, but his interference for the backs was the best he has yet done.

The half soon ended with the ball on Harvard's forty-five yard line. Score...

Stillman fumbled badly in trying to make the catch and Rogers recovered the ball and started for the goal with almost a clear field. Daly, however, downed him on the ten yard line. Time was called before the teams could line...
