The game was fought inch by inch
from beginning to end, and it is safe to
say that had tho Cambridge team not
lost two OF her best men the ramo
would havo ended without eithor sido
having crossed the line. Never wero
two teams more evenly matched and the
gains were mado more often by tho bril-
liant play of individual members of
the elevens rather than by team work.
Harvard played an aggressive game
from start 10 finish, and most OF tho
fighting was done in Yale territory.
Toward the close of the first half Yalo
forced tho bail down The field and got it
inside of ilArvard's five yard line A
bad tumble at this critical point of tho
game lost tho ball for Harvard and thew
were thus prevented from scoring, time
being called. The second half opened
with the same desperate fighting. and
the Cambridge team forcing tho play.
Harvard received her first setback
when Emmons was injured and
was obliged to give up and
few minutes later Upton, his
partner in the left end, who had been
playing a most brilliant game, was also
hurt and he was dragged from tho field
against his vigorous protest. This left
Harvard's strongest part OF the team a
weak spot and with this loss her hopes
vanished. Yale rushed the ball down by
the weakened end and by tho hardest
kind Of work and bri liant play Blair
scored the only touchdown OF the game:
