...first score, after three line plunges had failed to gain the required distance. Bowdoin made a strong bid to tie the score, but Smith's 44-yard attempt for a field goal fell short and wide of its mark. At the start of the second half Chapin ran back a punt to within 23 yards of the vositors goal posts. An offside penalty and line plunges by Gehrke and Chapin resulted in the first touchdown. The second came after a punting duel with the Crimson finally gaining the upper hand when Chapin caught a punt at mid-field and returned...
...Fisher's men obviously outshone their opponents, as it was the latter's weakness in this department that enabled Jenkins to block and recover the pass by Harris which resulted in the only touchdown of the afternoon. A protracted exchange of punts in the first quarter ended when Buell ran back a Dartmouth kick to the latter's 45-yard line.

The play had see-sawed back and forth...

Five minutes later Andover made a touchdown, and then another just before the end of the quarter on a long forward pass. Both kicks for goal were blocked by Wilson. In the third quarter Wilson intercepted a forward pass in midfield and ran for the University's second touchdown. This was made possible only by the splendid interference by F. W. Pratt '23. In the same quarter the University again carried the ball over...
