...awarded under the following conditions: Each contestant will be allowed ten throws at the basket at the north end of the Gymnasium. Of these ten throws three must be taken from the foul line, fifteen feet from the goal. Three throws must be made from any point on a straight line extending across the court and twenty feet distant from the goal line.

The only long run made during the half was that of 73 yards through the Harvard line by Metcalf for a touchdown...

It is also seldom that a strong team is scored upon by a long run, yet there was one run of 74 yards straight through the line for a touchdown, and there were others similarly executed which, if not stopped by the man in the backfield, would have had the same result. With the exception of these plays and a few punts of extraordinary length, there was little of the spectacular. For the most part...
