Brown started the last period with a rush. Crowther swept around his right end and down the side-line for a 45-yard run to a touchdown. On this run he shook off several men who should have thrown him. Ashbaugh kicked the goal. It was now the University's turn to startle the spectators. A beautiful forward pass from Bradley to Graustein netted 50 yards and a touchdown from which T. H. Frothingham kicked the goal. This ended the scoring: Harvard 30, Brown...
Groton kicked off to Watson who ran the ball to the middle of the field before he was thrown. A series of hard line-plunges and a pretty 20-yard run by Mahan around left end brought the ball to Groton's 30-yard line.

Bradlee in this half succeeded in getting off some good gains which showed him almost in a class with the first string men, and H. Frothingham, who played at end for the first time, was responsible for several good tackles...
