...kick-off very well, Bowdoin was forced to punt. After one poor pass by Swett, Upton punted out at his own thirty-yard line. Some clever hurdling by the Harvard backfield carried the ball up to the five-yard line where Parker scored through La Ferriere. Sawin missed the goal. During the remainder of the half, the ball changed hands often, without approaching either goal line. Offside play and careless fumbling cost Harvard much distance...
...from some point back of the first mark, and at the same distance from the side lines. This shall also apply when the side having a free kick allows the ball to touch the ground (Rule 15 b), and then fails to kick it, kick off and try at goal after touchdown excepted. The same ruling shall be given in case any player of the side making a free kick is ahead of the ball when it is kicked (Rule...
...first half. Hallowell kicked off to Williams's twenty-five yard line where Harvard took the ball on downs. Some clever rushing by Parker carried the ball up near the line, when Reid, on the third attempt, scored the first touchdown of the season. Daly missed a difficult goal.

Parker's runs around the end and Kendall's through the line carried the ball down the field for Reid to score a second time. Daly kicked...

In the last two minutes, Gierasch scored again from the thirty-five yard line. Time was called with the ball in Williams's possession...

Although, few gains could be made through the line, long rushes by Warren around the end soon brought the ball down the field until Sawin carried it over the line for a touchdown. Sawin kicked the goal. Daly played a brilliant game, and in addition to excellent work in the interference made some long runs of receiving kicks. For the other team, Parker tackled fiercely at right end. In the next two halves, Ellis, Devens and Gierasch proved themselves a strong trio of backs. Ellis ran hard...
