...kept the ball for Harvard on several occasions where a punt seemed necessary. Brown was unable to get nearer Harvard's goal than the 33-yard line. As in the West Point game, the University team was unable to gain around the ends, whereas Brown's longest gains, two quarterback runs of over 20 yards each, were made around O'Brien...
Adams opened the second half by kicking over the goal line. Burr punted out to Brown's 40-yard line and, aided by a 20-yard quarterback run, Brown returned the ball to Harvard's 40-yard line.

Wendell and Carr were then...

Heilborn failed to gain, owing to a poor pass and Kempner made a 13-yard quarterback run around Whitman's end, finally being tackled by Nesmith. Paul made a short gain, but Lockwood fumbled and Nesmith secured the ball on the first team's 42-yard line. Brill stepped back to punt, but White's pass went over his head.
