Harvard drives Exeter back and the playing remains in centre of field for some time. sears finally takes the ball and runs through the centre of the opposing rush line and makes a touchdown. Goal; 42-0. Harding, Holden and Piper make runs, and Sears carries the ball over. Goal; 48-0. Harding makes the last touchdown. Goal, Score, 54-0.

Exeter was far superior to Harvard in tackling, but did not use the rush line to advantage. It did, however, play much better than in the last game with Harvard.

For Harvard, Trafford, Piper and Sears did good work. Bancroft's offside play was very noticeable and gave Exeter five yards at least four times. This should not occur again. Woodman must block harder when Harvard has the ball, and Piper should run stronger. The game was the best here this year.
