After the first team had been sent in, the substitutes lined up against the second team, the latter taking the ball in mid-field. A fumbled punt, several gains outside tackle, and a forward pass gave the second the ball near the substitutes' goal.

Just as time was called O'Flaherty tried a drop-kick from Williams's 23-yard line; the kick was low and hit one of the men in the line. Time was called before play could be resumed...
