...pass came too high--he fumbled, regained the ball and ran it back to the 35-yard line. But it was now Yale's ball on downs. After advancing the ball eight yards, Yale was penalized twenty yards for helping, and Mitchell, after failing to gain on a fake kick, punted from the 48-yard line to Nichols on Harvard's 15-yard line. Nichols was downed in his tracks. On the next play Nichols punted out to the 45-yard line, where Metcalf was thrown by Bowditch. After gaining six yards through the line Yale gave the ball...

Schoellkopf ran in the next kick-off to the 20-yard line and then LeMoyne punted to the second's 45-yard line.
