...strong wind in her favor. Harvard's heavy rush line was too much for the lighter Amherst team and in a short time Nichols made a touchdown from which Saxe kicked a goal. The ball was then brought into the middle of the field and in about eight minutes Wood made the second touchdown, resulting in a goal. Two more touchdowns were made in quick succession by Nichols and Wood, from which goals were kicked by Saxe. A very poor pass by Nichols over Porter's head gave the ball to Amherst within two feet of Harvard's goal line...
