...Harding tackled him. Woodman stopped Graham's running and Harvard secured the ball in a few minutes. Wood, Butler and Saxe made short rushes. Ball was passed to Perry, but slipped through his hands and Wood of Pennsylvania got it. On four downs it returned to Harvard. Saxe ran through the centre and Boyden followed with a run. Harvard was now well up to the opposing line and Boyden rushed over, securing the first touchdown in five minutes. No goal; 4-0. On punt out, Perry muffed and Harding went to the five yard line. Saxe made...
Second Half.- Harding ran up to 30 yard line at the beginning of the second half, but the rush line could carry it no farther and Pennsylvania got the ball and advanced 10 yards. Saxe slipped on punt, but Boyden got back to 30-yard line and soon rushed over the line. No goal, but Cumnock falls on the ball over line. Goal. Score, 26-0, Hyneman took Zeigler's place in the rush line and Zeigler went to half-back, as Wood was disqualified. On muff of the guard, Bowser, who was playing back, Harding secured the ball...
...grand stand. George passed the ball back to Hancock, rushers formed a V, and Princeton gained ten yards.

On a fumble by half-back, Yale lost ten yards and had a down on her fifteen-yard line. Bull kicked a sky-scooper and Pratt and Wallace launched themselves...

Of course every one who saw the game knows that perfectly, but it ought to be made a matter of ancient history...
...rushes. Porter started another run, passed the ball to Harding who in turn passed it to Bancroft. The ball was now inside Princeton's twenty-five yard line. The backs did more running and Harvard reached the 15 yard line. Princeton got the ball on a foul and Ames ran behind his goal posts. Cumnock missed him and he carried the ball out. Bancroft was disqualified and Alexander was put into his place. Woodman made a short run, as did Porter and Boyden. Saxe did some good blocking off. On four downs Harvard lost the ball, but Ames...
