Play was called at 2:40. Yale lost the
toss and Pennsylvania took the west side
of the field. In the uncertainty of the re-
suit il was supposed that Yale had Its
strongest team. but they positively refused
to show some of their tactics that would
be used in the Harvard and Princeton
games to follow. Yale started in with the
wedge and gained ten yards. Laurie
Bliss and C. ID. Bliss were sent AROUND the
end for five yards and gained fifteen more
on sturdy run. Winter bucked unsuo-
cessfully against the Pennsylvania center.
On the fourth down the ball went to
Pennsylvania. and with q long punt by
Thayer was sent flying across the held
only to be returned to the fifteen-yard
touchdown after a. play of.
eight minutes Butterworth gained the
goal with difficult kick, and the first
score of.slx points went to Yale. The Penn
sylvania boys gained only i've yards on
wedge when Camp was sent to the end for
an equal gain. Thayer made q gain by
punt and advanced the ball to the thirty
five-yard Y ale line. Butterworth then got
in his work. and, by long run, aided by
good Interference, carried the ball into the
by q series or strong rushes on the part OF
Wallis and L. Bliss, and &. ID. Bliss worked
the ball across the line for another touch
down. Butterworth kicked goal. Score,
~ too.
Thayer's punt gained ground for the
Pennsylvania when play resumed. The
Yale center proved too strong for them to
gain any more. Thayer punted again, and,
carving the ball in the center, l.. Bliss
started with it around his opponents left
end and across the goal for the third touch
down. Goal fsiled, and the score stood 10
to o.
Thayer did some more good work with
his good kicks, and l.. Bliss. who got the
BALL started on run to take 1t back. A
good tackle and he was downed. 1t was
worked well into Yale ground, when l..
Bliss again got the ball and. like On af-
frighted deer. rushed by all opponents and
away across the field to the University of
Pennsylvania goal line. Cheer after cheer
went up from all sides for his beautiful
run Butterworth kicked another goal
and % scores were piled up to ale's credit.
Again the Pennsylvania used the wedge
to no effect. Long punts were exchanged,
and finally Thayer sent the ball over the
heads of Yale and toward their goal posts.
Two feet more and it would have passed

vania Time was called for the first b alf
with the ball on Pennsylvania fifteen
yard line.
Pennsylvania's eleven was changed
somewhat in the latter half Captain
Schoff had received several bruises on his
head, and thought it best to give up his
place. Mackey was replaced. Camp
started in after the wedge had failed TO
take the ball around Yale's left end, but
Butterworth proved good tackle and he
was downed. After an exchange of kicks
Butterworth. by q long run, placed the
ball on the Pennsylvania twenty-hve-yard
line. The touchdown was scored by w. ID.
Bliss. L. Bliss. in the meanwhile, had
been hurt in a tackle and was replaced by
Graves. The score was made % to O. Then
Pennsylvania started in with desperate
valor and worked it to within the i've
yard line of the Yale goal. The supporters
of the red and blue became tremulous With
excitement. After three OF four struggles
the Pepnsylvanias lost the ball and it went
into the center by the mastery efforts of
the Yale giants. Then the sounding of the
referees whistle announced that they had
kept the University boys from scoring o
point. There was disappoin tment in their
breasts and the dream of success had
failed. They were defeated by O score of
