Wrightington, Dunlop and Clarke, with Corbett in Dunlop's place in the second half, were the backs for the first. Clarke made the best runs. He scored the only touchdown, running 30 yards unaided by interference, except that Mackie and Newell opened up a hole for him in the opposing rush line. Dunlop had a sore hand and seemed to be afraid of hurting...
...aggressive work and slowly forced the ball toward Harvard's goal. Time was called, however when the elevens were lined up on the 25 yard line. There was only one other period when Harvard's goal was threatened. The ball was well into Williams territory when Draper found a hole in the rush line and went tearing down the field.

On the next play he was pushed over the line, and then Hall kicked the goal by about a foot and tied the score...
