...ball in the final attempt to score, was thrown back for a loss of three yards. It was not until the end of the last quarter, when Princeton recovered a Williams' fumble on the latter's 16-yard line, that her backfield had the power to push the ball across the line for a touchdown. Law, amid breathless excitement, succeeded in gaining the point necessary to avert defeat...
...score of 3 to 0. Malone, playing quarterback for Worcester, scored the only points of the game when he booted a field goal from the 15-yard line in the third quarter. Throughout the first half, and during the last quarter, the two teams swayed back and forth across the field, neither having much advantage over the other.

In all, Tufts rushed 52 times for a total of 266 yards, an average of 5 yards on each play; the University rushed 45 times for 187 yards, an average of four. Tufts made 17 first downs the University 12. Had not Tufts been penalized at critical moments, and if better judgment had been shown in the use of the forward pass, it is not unlikely that the eleven...
