...ball and made a considerable gain; then Sherwin dodged through the Bowdoin rushers 20 yards and scored the first touchdown; goal. Score, 6-0. Harvard forced Bowdoin steadily back from the center of the field, the visitors twice taking the ball back 20 yards to keep it. At length Dean and Fearing got through and fell on the ball. It was giving to Sherwin, who ran 15 yards around the end and scored the second touch-down; no goal. Score 10-0.
