New Haven, Conn, November 19.-Har- yard defeated Yale this afternoon. IT to U, winning glorious football victory in clean, fast game, abounding in brilliant plays The Harvard eleven showed them selves masters of the game, and played football well nigh marveously under such terrible conditions.
 Harvard's great speed in play, power and concentration of attack, superior kicking and splendid physical condition won the game for her. The Yale players fought w..-l stolid pluck. At the end they rallied grandly out of sheer desperation and in- ished strong.
 A bleaker and more uninviting spot was not to be found in New Haven at noon to- day than the Yale field.
 The vanguard of the vast throng which went to the field began to arrive about noon, after a long tramp through mud and water and found the gridiron submerged and the carriage approaches to the grand stand a quagmire. The rain which had fallen for two and a half days was still pouring down and a northeast wind con- tinued to send the storm along with great violence Eighteen thousand people wit messed the game. Oil skins, mackintoshes, rubber coats, table cloths carriage boots, southwesters, every kind of water-proof protection was pressed into the service.
 At o'clock there were few vacant seats on the great rectangle. Shortly afterward the two teams entered the arena amid wild applause
 At 2:33 o'clock Burr Chamberlain, of Yale, kicked off far down the field to the IO-yard line and then the battle was on in ear- nest. The ball was kicked back and forth by both sides, and Harvard kept the ball most of the time in Yale's territory.
 Finally with the ball on Yale's 45-yard line, Harvard began her relentless ham,. ri ftn VaIa Ift,n r.fn a well earned touchdown. Yale made plucky rally on the one yard line and twice faced the fury of the cr.m- son attacking, giving way but one yard Reid took the ball and leaped headlong into. the struggling forwards. It was nearly q minute before the men could be pulled out of the hemp. so hard and close had been the scrimmage. But Reid had gone over the line. The crimson had scored the first point twelve minutes after the kick off. Cochrane failed to kick the goal.
 Dibblee made Havard's second touchdown very nearly in the same manner that the first was made. Houghton kicked the goal and the score was Il to O.
 In the second half. after a series of bucks and rushes Houghton plunged over the goal for Harvard's third touchdown. Houghton kicked another goal, and the score was 17 to D.
 This last touchdown occurred ten min utes before the end of the game, and It was after that time that Yale did her best playing. But their efforts went for nought, and the game ended without Yales scor- ing.
 After the game the Harvard band march, ed about the grounds. followed by hun@ dreds of cheering Harvard men. It was their second victory over Yale since 1875
