Innocent though the Negroes may have been, the midwest's weather was wicked. It rained and blew as the President, after dedicating a monument at Cincinnati, proceeded down the newly-canalized Ohio River. The river steamer Mississippi, especially equipped for the President's ride to Louisville, went aground, forcing him to embark on the less comfortable lighthouse tender Greenbrier. Whipped by enormous winds, the yellow waters rose up into unwonted waves which battered and buffeted the President's craft most disrespectfully...

Once again in the third stanza did the Harvard combination get inside the Green 10-yard line, but the attack stalled. From this point on Dartmouth and Marsters were supreme, except for one determined Crimson stand, beneath its own goal posts. The ball went to Harvard on downs. Potter kicked out 25 yards, and on the next play Marsters outran the field for a score. Coach Horween's players faded from the picture as the Indians, always on the attack well in enemy territory, riddled the Crimson, defense for there more touch downs...
