was. less; steady when the referees
whistle blew for play to begin. 1t was

Haughton; who returned it with a net
gain of fifteen yards, and De Saulles
muffed. Doucette got the ball. Haugh-
ton and Bouve carried it through the
center for six yards. Then Parker
and Dibblee added five more, bringing
the ball to Yales thirty-yard line,
where a quarterback kick gave it to
De Saulles. Mcbride punted into Dib-
blee's arms and the latter advanced
the ball ten yards to the center of the
field. Harvard made fruitless try to
center, but Hazen got the runner.
Haughton then kicked high, and Nc
Bride got the ball on Yale's fifteen
yard line Moulton tackled him hard
and was laid out for two or three
minutes, but he was strong enough to
nail Corwin for a loss on the next play.
Mcbride punted out of bounds at
Yale's thirty-five-yard line Cabot
made two yards around right end, but
Doucette got in the way of the next
play, and Haskell was forced to re-
tire. Norton Shaw took his place at
right guard Chadwick's illegal inter-
ference with the snapback gave Har-
ward five yards. Parker and Haughton
pushed through the guards for good
gains, and the ball was HarVards on
| the enemy's fiftten-yard line.
Everything looked to a speedy touch
| down. Bouve, Parker and Cabot chop
| ped off ten yards of the remaining dis
tance, and, with first down on Yales
| seven-yard line, Harvard thought she
was already tasting the joys Of victory
| But the Ellis summoned all their ira
| ditional sand, and, combining 1t with
excellent defensive play, got the ball
on downs. One successful attack at
| Harvard's line, and then Mcbride
kicked. 1t was short punt but the
day was saved for Yale. Harvard
could do nothing with the ball, and
| forfeited it on downs. 1t was Yale's
ball on her twenty-yard line, and, after
| an unsuccessful assault on Donald by
| Benjamin, Mcbride punted it to his
fiftY-yard line.
Haughton caught the ball and ad-
vanced it ten yards. An exchange Of
punts by Haughton and Mcbride net

kick by Mcbride was gathered in by
one of his own side at the middle of
| the field. Two more exchanges of
| kicks left the ball on Yale's forty-yard
| line. Swain was laid out in helping
| Parker through left end, and "Beef'
Wheeler took his place. Chadwick
! downed Dibblee without gains. Forced
to kick on downs. Haughton sent the
| her ball on the twenty-ffve-yard line.
The ball lowered around the center
| Of the field for some time until, on
| punt by Haughton to Yale's fifteen
| yard line, De Saulles made the best
run of the day. gaining thirty yards
| through Harvards tackles. Donald
was injured in one Of the following
| plays, and Mills took his place. He
| distinguished himself at once by a
| fine tackle of Mcbride, who caught
Haughtons punt on Yale's forty-five-
| yard line. Neither goal was in dan

est approach to it being just before
| the end, when Parker blocked Nc
Brides punt and sent the ball bounc-
ing back towards Yale's goal. No
other Harvard player was near enough
to get the ball, and Parker trilDed.
Cabot was hurt on the next play, and,
on the following scrinmage, time was
called with the ball on Yale's thirty
yard line. The summary:
