...thrown hard by Wentworth and badly winded. Goodwin took his place for a few minutes, till Scott changed places with Griffing, the latter going half-back, Fine rushes by Perry and Morgan brought the ball again down the field, the freshmen running around like sheep, and Perry scored another touchdown, from which Scott kicked a goal. Slocum now made a good rush for the freshmen, and Hunnewell made three successive runs, but '90 failed to keep the ball, and the half closed with the score 16 to 0 against them...

...second half was marked by good running by Carpenter, Swarts and Faulkner, and general good tackling by the others. In this half Rogers made a touchdown, and Faulkner kicked a goal. It seems ridiculous to make distinctions where all played with so much spirit; but on the Glee Club Swarts, Faulkner and Allen were the most conspicuous, and on the Pierian, Hallowell and Carpenter.
