...first half '98 had the kick-off. They got the ball again and rushed it down to the sophomores' five yard line. There '97 got it on a fumble and in two rushes carried it to within twenty-five yards of the goal. Then Garrison, by a very pretty criss-cross, drew in the freshmen's right end and scored a touchdown. Garrison kicked a goal...
...into the game. Very few of the men showed any signs of fatigue from the hard game with Cornell. Wrightington and Brewer made some long runs and scored several touchdowns, but Brewer's punting was not up to the standard and he failed in both attempts to drop a goal from the field. Whittemore's kicking was fairly good, but his attempts at dodging and running after a catch were very poor. Wrenn and Foster both played well at quarterback and there was little fumbling. Most of the gains were made around the ends and few attempts were directed against...
Ninety-Five, 8; Cambridge High, 0.Ninety-five and Cambridge High School played a short game yesterday on Soldiers Field. Ninety-five scored twice, once by some good, hard playing, and the second time on a fluke. No goal was kicked either time.

Ohl kicked the goal. After Wrightington's pretty run for twenty-five yards, Brewer failed...
...second half the ball was in Harvard territory most of the time. Harvard was unable to gain either by rushing or punting and frequently lost the ball for holding. At Harvard's twenty-five yard line Ohl failed to drop a goal from the field, but soon after Cornell scored her second touchdown. Brewer caught Ohl's punt on the ten yard line, Beacham stopped the return kick and Colnan secured the ball behind Harvard's goal posts. The Harvard team tried hard to score, but they were too exhausted, the team play being loose and accompanied by little interference...
