By means of two well-executed forward passes and large gains on the exchange of punts, the first team advanced the ball to the 5-yard line, whence Graustein scored on a plunge through centre. After a short scrimmage three more points were scored by T. Frothingham on a drop-kick from the 25-yard line...
