down the field to the 10-yard line, DAILY re-
turning the kick prettily, and Yale lined uI
| with the ball in her possession on her own
50yard line.
Haughton rooted the leather down the
gridiron across the goal line for touch back.
The ball being brought back, Chamberlain
kicked off from the 25-yard line, Reid max
ing a pretty catch, dashing over the white
Lines for twenty yards before little Ely
nailed him. 1t was now, with the ball on
Yale's 45-yard line, that Harvard began her
relentless hammering at the Yale line, which
resulted in well-earned touchdown. The
Crimson had scored the first point at just
2:35 o'clock, twelve minutes after the kick
off
bar and the ball bounded back into the
arena, making the score to 0 in Harvard's
favor Chamberlain kicked off again, and
Daily punted back to Ely on the play. The
Harvard line was strong, determined and ag-
gressive. 1t was impossible for Yale, try
as she would, to gain, and she was forced to
kick. Haughton returned the punt, and
Ely made a brilliant sensational run of 30
yards by catching it and rushing down the
side lnes shaking off tackler after tackler
But when the backs went up against the
Crimson line it was like striking brick wall.
Yale was always forced to kick, and Har-
ward kicked at every opportunity, gaining
many yards and keeping the play continually
in Yae's territory.
The ball went over to Yale for the second
time at 2:5l o'clock, just % minutes after the
start. Haughton shot the oval fair and
true over the cross-bars, and Harvard led,
II to o.. The remaining few minutes of play
was marked by no remarkable feature, and
the half closed at 3:05 p. M, with the ball in
Yale's possession on her own 50-yard line
and the score: Harvard IL Yale 0.
In the second half Mcbride returned
Haughton's kickoff, DAILY receiving the
punt and making brilliant run of thirty
yards before he was downed by Ely.
Harvard again began her persistent
plunging attacks between Yale tackles, but
lost the ball to Yale on downs after gaining
twelve yards.
Yale was again forced to kick, and Har-
ward, after several futile attempts to make
headway, did the same. The ball went
back and forth several times without ma-
teral result, Dibblee finally gathering in
McBrde's bounding kick and giving Har-
ward the ball on Yale's forty-yard line.
Haughton at once shot high long punt
down the field, which Dudley missed, red
Jacket fell on the ball and it was Harvard S
first down in twenty yards, and Dibbee
added two more on the other side. Then
Warren, with mighty dive, broke through
the left guard, cleared the serimmage pile
and brought the ball to the two-yard line
when Reid was pushed over for a touch
down. Haughton kicked the goal, making
the score II to 0, as it remained.
There was scarcely ten minutes more play
but in that time Yale's team rallied with
splendid courage and grit and made their
best offensive effort of the afternoon. Har
yard had the ball on her own forty-yard line
and it was given to Yale for off-side play
Durston banged into the right for a good
six yards more and again for five more
Dudley struck Harvard's right for three
yards but could make no headway on tn,
next attempt. This brought the ball t.
Harvard's tweptyyard line, and Yale en-
| thusiasts had visions of scoring, when Ely
, on double pass, sllirted the right end fol
twelve yards, amid the widest enthusiasm
Durston was given the ball and tore W
against the crimson trocha again, but will
no success. Chamberlain then dropped bacl
for goal from the field, but his effor
proved fruitless, and time was called befor
! the teams lined I'D again. Harvard hat
