...always his fault. Bowditch played one of the best games that has ever been put up by a Harvard end. Time and again through his own efforts alone he stopped plays outside of tackle which but for him would have gone on unchecked for a possible repetition of Metcalf's long run for a touchdown. Both he and Mills, who was exceptionally active on the other side of the line, prevented all gains around their positions, and were kept from doing the same excellent work on punts only by the fine blocking and holding of Chadwick and the opposing ends...

Only a short time at the beginning of the game was required to show the superiority of the Yale team, and within ten minutes the first touchdown was scored. During the remainder of the half, the two teams played very evenly until Metcalf broke through the line for his long run and a touchdown.

In three downs the ball was advanced 5 yards and then Kernan punted to Metcalf who was downed in his tracks by Bowditch on Harvard's 46 yard line.

...downed by Shevlin on Harvard's 32 yard line. Putnam and Graydon made the necessary five yards in plays through guard and tackle, and on Harvard's first down Putnam was stopped without gain by Glass.

Chadwick gained a yard through left tackle before he was stopped by Bow- ditch. On the next play Metcalf worked his way through an opening made by Goss...
