...this season. The Harvard centre trio divided honors with their opponents, except for Grant, for whom Brusse was no match. Grant was, as usual, one of the first men down under punts. He succeeded in blocking one of Glaze's attempted goals from placement and in cutting off a fake forward pass. Gilder, who played during most of the game at quarterback, after Newhall was injured, covered his backfield position fairly well, but used very poor judgment in his choice of plays, and did not run the team with the snap which characterized Newhall's playing.

Burr then pulled off the play which was the direct cause of the touchdown, Fish and M. C. Peirce recovering his 26-yard forward pass on the 8-yard line. Apollonio gained three yards through guard...

...over for a touchdown. The second team tried again to score from the 20-yard line, but were stopped two yards from the first team's goal and help for downs. Starr made the long run of the day, taking the ball from behind his own goal on a fake kick and running it out to the 38-yard line. In the early part of the scrimmage, the University team used three forward passes in five prays, making an average of 15 yards at each attempt. Wendell was the chief ground gainer for the seconds...

...fumbled forward pass. Cobb made an on-side kick, which was also recovered, and then kicked again to Starr, who ran from the 47 to the 30-yard line with good interference.

Cobb tried an on-side kick which was blocked and downed by Peirce on Maine's 45-yard line as time was called. Score...
