...second team was unable to make any consistent gains. Although the play on the whole was neither brilliant nor especially fast, extremely well-developed team-play was shown at times by the first team. Newhall was back in the game at quarterback, and all of the regular players except Burr, Nichols and Harrison were on the field. Foster and Starr were again given light work and did not play in the scrimmage...
...roughness and was replaced by White. After a penalty Sheble punted to Foster on the 35-yard line. Harvard rushed the ball back 30 yards, but Pennsylvania braced and on the third down with four yards to gain Starr tried a quarter-back run. He had a clear field except for Stevenson, who by hard running caught him for a loss of three yards, the ball going to Pennsylvania on downs on Harvard's 45-yard line.

It is an open game in which interference like that in American football is unknown, and in which there is no body checking. Players are not allowed to touch opponents with their hands, except in tackling the man with the ball. The ball is advanced by being carried by a runner, by being dribbled, as in the association game, and by being punted. Forward passing is not allowed, but long passes side-ways are frequent.
