...think that I could have gone through college and got along with a sum materially smaller than that which I have had ($1000 a year). In view of the small sum on which some men go through college, it may seem ridiculous for me to say this, but I do not consider that I have been extravagant, though in some cases I might have spent more judiciously...

Benden runs and the Williams team improve in their playing. They had been playing a little loosely but now seemed determined to stop Harvard scoring. Nothing effectual was accomplished for several minutes, but Porter got the ball from a long pass out by Harding and secured another touchdown. Goal. Score 32-0. Porter made another rush and in three minutes crossed the line again. Score (?) No goal, as the ball strikes the post and Wood (?) on the (?) . The sphere is passed to Saxe but he makes a horrible fumble and Belden sails down the field with the ball for Harvard...

...second half opened in a very uninteresting manner. The rushers on both sides were poor. Germer in attempting to make a fair catch collided with Devens and lost the ball. Bancroft got it and passed to Bradle, who made a touchdown. Perry failed to kick the goal. The playing now seemed to be without any snap. Harvard blocked very poorly and repeatedly failed to get touchdowns even when within 20 feet of the line. At last the ball was kicked over the Tech line and Slocum managed to fall on it first. Then Perry tried for a goal but failed...
