Soon after the start of the play, Creede kicked to Potter who ran the ball 10 yards to his 35-yard line. From this point consistent gains, mostly through tackle, carried, the ball over for a touchdown. Corbett made 26 yards and Morrison got 9 more. After three plays by Corbett and Morrison, Wendell took Corbett's place and in two downs put the ball on the 4-yard line. Morrison scored on the next play, and Frothingham kicked the goal...

...another attempt to score for just as the whistle blew Lewis was ready to try a drop-kick from in front of the goal posts on the 12-yard line. The last touchdown came in the third period on a perfect forward pass from Potter to L. Smith, who ran 20 yards for the score.

...yards before being downed. Corbett got 8 yards but Morrison failed to gain, so Corbett kicked to Fitts on Amherst's 46-yard line. Abele could not gain around right end and L. Smith threw Madden for a loss on a forward pass, compelling Creede to punt. Corbett ran to Harvard's 40-yard line before he was downed. Amherst lost 5 yards for offside on the next play but Morrison could not gain. Corbett therefore punted, but Harvard was offside and the ball was brought back to Harvard's 40-yard line. Corbett's kick was blocked; Roberts picked...

At this point the first team line seemed to weaken, allowing the opposing backs 25 yards in four-line plunges. A forward pass, on the next play, was recovered by Corbett, who ran it 45 yards for a touchdown...
