...first half, Amherst received Marshall's kick-off on the thirty-five yard line and then started in a series of plays that took Harvard completely by surprise. Mass plays on the tackles and end runs carried the ball steadily down the field, and three times on the third down the Amherst backs more than gained their distance. After making 10 yards on two plays, Biram went around Jones's end for twenty yards. Successive line plunges and a penalty for offside play brought the ball to Harvard's thirty-three yard line and then Washburn added 10 yards more...
