VICTORY.

The Harvard Eleven on their Mettle. Our Football Reputation Saved.

Brewer rushed 10 yards and then Newton disgraced himself by jumping on Brewer with both knees when the latter was already down. Expressions of indignation came fiercely from the Harvard grandstand. Nothing was to be done however and the game went on.

Again the two fullbacks sent the ball flying up and down the field, and then Harvard by steady rushes brought the ball to the 25 yard line. It was lost through interference but it was no time at all before Stevenson broke through, secured the ball on a fumble, and then on the ball was pushed up to the 5 yard line.

Here a fumble by Harvard saved Pennsylvania from another touchdown. Of course Pennsylvania kicked and then Brewer, Wrightington, and Dunlop by good solid work went down the field for another touchdown, and one more goal was kicked. Score, 20 to 4 for Harvard.

The few minutes of the half that were left were enlivened only by a run by Newton.

Newton apologized to Brewer for his ingentlemanly conduct.

Harvard opened up the second half with a 15 yard gain on their wedge, and Brewer made 15 more around the end.

Repeated rushes carried the ball to the 10 yard line. Brewer crawled 8 yards through the centre and Wrightington finished the good work. Brewer kicked his fourth goal. Score, 26 to 4.

Pennsylvania was unable to gain much either by her wedge or rushes and the ball was once more Harvard's. Brewer and Brooke both kicked, but Brewer did a little the better.

Reese was hurt and Oliver went to tackle and Wharton to guard. The play for some minutes was unexciting. The ball went back and forth in the middle of the field. Stevenson and Newell did some beautiful work.

Brewer and Brooke kicked again and again. One of Brooke's kicks Brewer caught and made the finest run of the afternoon. In a minute more he repeated the performance and did such beautiful dodging that the crowd went wild.

Brewer, however, was unable to play longer and went off the field while the spectators cheered him again and again. Gray took his place; but in no time Gray in turn was hurt and Gonterman came in.

Then the play became brisker. Dunlop and Gonterman both made long gains that carried the ball to the five yard line where it was lost on downs. Harvard forced the ball down the field again and by aid of the flying interference carried the ball to the 3 yard line only to lose it again on downs.

The ball was once more carried down the field.

The game finally closed with the ball on Pennsylvania's 30 yard line.

Final score Harvard 26 Pennsylvania 4
