...around left end for fifty yards before being tackled on the ten-yard line. The second team got the ball on a fumble, and punted to the middle of the field. Sawin then circled right end for twenty-five yards, but failed in an attempt at a drop-kick goal from the thirty-five yard line. The second team again punted to the middle of the field, and Sawin ran it back twenty yards by an exciting dodging run. A series of line plays took the ball to the second's five-yard line, but time was called before...
After Williams had returned the kick-off to the middle of the field Harvard began an attack on the Williams line and on the third play, E. Kendall broke through a hole at right tackle and ran forty yards for a touchdown. J. Lawrence kicked the goal. Daly returned the kick-off to Williams' forty-five-yard line, and after Harvard had regained the ball on downs, he tried a drop-kick goal from the field which was blocked. Two minutes later, Harvard secured the ball at the same place, and Daly made a second unsuccessful attempt at a goal...

Lawrence broke through, picked up the ball on the run and scored the first touchdown, less than a minute after play had begun. He also kicked the goal. The next touchdown came more slowly. E. Kendall's ten yards, made on the kick-off, twenty more on the next play and Kernan's run of thirty yards around right end, took the ball to the ten yard...
...substitute eleven began the second half fairly well. Sherlock ran the kick-off back forty yards, and Stillman and Gierasch made several good gains through the line. Here, however, whatever interference there had been disappeared and the backs began to get in the way of each other. Finally, after a series of fairly good line plunges, the ball was carried past the ten yard line and Sawin made a touchdown. He also kicked the goal. Soon after the next kick-off Wesleyan took the ball on a punt and kept it until just before the end of the half...
