...chance whatever of scoring. Once in the first half, Stillman fumbled one of Craighead's punts, and offside by Harvard on the succeeding play gave Yale the ball on Harvard's 30-yard line. Again in the second half, both Baldwin and Stillman fumbled a punt and Wallace ran to the fifteen yard line before he was downed. Yale could not gain by direct rushing, however, and in the second half, Craighead's drop-kick for a goal was blocked and Yale's only chance for a score prevented...

...second half, every man of the original eleven except Stillman, Graydon and Sugden was replaced by a substitute, and much team play sacrificed. All the backs ran well with the ball, but were weak in handling punts. Stillman did some strong punting, and outclassed Craighead, who punted for Yale, even against the wind. His line-bucking was strong and his run of seventy yards on a fake kick was the longest of the game. Hersey did some good individual rushing, but was of little use in the interference. His substitute, Kernan, did some remarkable punting in the last few minutes...

...over three times as many yards. In the second half Harvard was greatly out-punted, but gained about two and a half times as much distance by rushing as Yale did. The chief reasons why McBride could not outkick Hallowell in the first half were that Sawin and Daly ran back his kicks for ten and fifteen yards and that Campbell tackled brilliantly under Hallowell's punts. Campbell played a perfect game and made up to a great extent for the absence of Hallowell in running down under kicks. Hallowell's kicks were long, as usual, but also erratic...

...offside play, and at once started to punt. Donald blocked the kick and the ball rolled outside with Hallowell after it. He missed, however, and Yale secured the ball. Then followed many kicks on each of which Campbell tackled the Yale backs for losses, and Daly and Sawin ran back McBride's punts several yards. This forced Yale back as long as she continued the kicking game. Once she tried to rush but could not gain, and finally, on Harvard's 47 yard line, Daly began to rush the ball. Three 10 yard rushes,--on two double passes...

...held for downs on Harvard's 30-yard line. Harvard kicked, and Hallowell got the ball on a fumble. The eleven now took the aggressive and rushed the ball to Yale's 22-yard line where it was lost on a fumble. McBride punted out of danger and Daly ran it back fifteen yards. Reid punted, and again Fincke fumbled to Hallowell. Time was nearly up, and Harvard was held for two downs on Yale's 15-yard line. Unfortunately, Sawin was out of the game, and Hallowell had to try for the goal. He missed, and the whistle blew...
