...whole did very good work, and the punting was very good. The second eleven made frequent gains through the line, chiefly through left guard and left tackle. This was partly due to the fact that White played far to the right, leaving too much ground for Brill and McFadon to cover. Hanley's work at fullback was very unsatisfactory. He is not playing nearly as well as at this time last year, but as yet no one has been found to take his place. Leonard is developing into a very reliable punter and Foster has shown marked improvement in this...
Cunniff kicked off to Starr on the 20-yard line, who ran back 10 yards. Failing to gain Foster punted outside to Lincoln, on the 50-yard line. Nesmith and Somes netted eight yards in three plays and the second was given five yards for Brills offside play. Somes, in three plays, made eleven yards. The first team braced, however, and held the second for downs. Foster tried a run around left end but was thrown for a loss by Montgomery. Wendell gained only two yards on the next play and Foster punted outside, Brill falling on the ball...

...Brill kicked to the 10-yard line to D. Brown, who ran back 10-yards before he was tackled by O'Brien. A. Brown made 18 yards around Leary's end. Failing to gain, Williams was forced to punt. Newhall fumbled and Elder fell on the ball on Harvard's 35-yard line. Williams made a few short gains and was given five yards for interference with the centre, but in the next three rushes could only again three yards and Harvard was given the ball on her own 20-yard line. After both teams had been penalized 10 yards...
