...posts. In a maul-in-goal which followed, Kimball of Princeton secured the ball and scored a touch down from which Moffat kicked an easy goal. The ball was brought out and Harvard went to work in earnest so that in a very short time the ball was forced to Princeton's ground. The ball was passed back to Cowling and he kicked a very pretty goal from the field. From the next kick-off the ball again approached Princeton's line, and from a fumble by Baker Kendall scored a touchdown for Harvard, but the try-for-goal...

When the ball was returned Lamar seized it, and, by a beautiful run, brought it near the line. Moffat tried for goal again, without success.

...score by slow and spiritless playing. In this point lies the secret of Yale's large scores, for her men, confident that rigid training will give them as much and probably more endurance than their opponents, do not neglect this advantage but continually force the fighting from the kick-off to the very close of the game...

Soon after the kick-off, Cochrane and Brooks by some very pretty playing carried the ball across Exeter's goal line and made another touchdown for Harvard. Willard kicked this goal. The kick-off was followed by much loose playing on both sides, the ball quickly changing sides. Finally, a bad fumble by Exeter's back gave Harvard another opportunity and allowed Fletcher, who was right...
