...neither could rush the ball beyond its opponent's 25-yard line. Punting was frequent as neither side was able to gain consistently. Andover made two fumbles on both of which the Freshmen made long gains. The only time a score seemed imminent was when Porter, Andover's fullback, barely missed a field-goal from the 40-yard line...
