Bliss made a pretty run of ten yards between Wrenn and Shea. After two more tries without gain Noyes punted high. Corbett thought the ball would roll over the line but it stopped on the five yard line. Corbett punted to Bliss and the ball went to Yale at Harvard's 40 yard line. Yale gained nothing in three tries and the ball went to Harvard...
With the ball at the Harvard 45 yard line McCormick gained 5 yards but Jenkins lost ten by a bad pass and Bliss fell on the ball. Bliss then made a pretty run around Wrenn's end for 15 yards. McCormick lost three yards by Waters' good tackle. Bliss then tried for a goal from the field, but the ball hit a Harvard man and bounded around a good deal until a Yale man dropped on it at the Harvard 15 yard line.
