Soon after the next kick-off, Amherst secured the ball through a fumble on Harvard's thirty-five yard line, but was soon forced to punt. The kick was a poor one and Bowditch caught it on the bounce at the twenty-five yard line and ran to the middle of the field. Steady plunges then brought the ball within two yards of Amherst's goal. Marshall's slowness in giving the signals allowed time to be called before the ball could be carried over. The line-up: HARVARD. AMHERST. Jones, l.e. r.e., Priddy, Raferty Wright, Bleakie, Dodge...
...usual length in order to give the University team an opportunity to redeem itself, but without any noticeable effect.

The line-ups of the University and second elevens follow: FIRST ELEVEN. SECOND ELEVEN.

...stop the Bowdoin attack. Graydon made some good gains but his fumbling was the worst feature of the game; he also failed to prevent the opponents' backs from hurdling the line.

...ball was brought to Bowdoin's three-yard line. Graydon was given the ball to carry over but in the midst of the scrimmage there was a fumble, and as the ball rolled out. Porter, Bowdoin's right end, picked it up, and, with both teams behind him, ran the length of the field for a touchdown. Philoon kicked an easy goal. Score, Harvard 0, Bowdoin 6. With only a few minutes to play, the Harvard team pulled together and immediately after the kick-off forced Bowdoin to punt. Marshall caught the ball at the centre of the field...
Immediately after the kick-off in the second half, Bowdoin punted and Marshall ran the ball up 20 yards to Bowdoin's 43-yard line. Fifteen yards were gained in two plays but Bowdoin then obtained the ball on a fumble and punted to the centre of the field. From there a play by Piper and one by Tenney brought the teams to the 25-yard line and after three more rushes Tenney made the touchdown. Marshall kicked a difficult goal. Score, Harvard 11, Bowdoin 6. The last touchdown was made a few minutes later when Harvard obtained the ball...
