 the Game.

New Haven, Conn.,, November A.-Victo- " long delayed perched upon the blue ban ner of old Yale today when the football team of the New Haven University smoth- cred the crimson of fair Harvard in the annual football contest played at Yale field. For the first time since 1894 Yale scored a victory over Harvard and today she took sweet revenge for Harvards mer- ciess performance in New Haven two years ago when the crimson rejoced over the blue by the score of 17 to O. Today Yale administered to Harvard a waterloo to the tune of 2S to 0. It was Yale from the first kickoff and the warriors of the blue seemed bent on punishing Harvard to the limit
 In the first half Yale scored two touch- downs. In the second half she repeated this performance and in addition to tearing Harvard to pieces for two touchdowns Sharpe the Yale half-back lifted a field goal from the twenty-five yard line.
 In the first fifteen minutes of the game by means of her stalwart rush line, the famous tackles back formation with con- fusing variations, tore through the Har- yard forwards for the first touchdown for Yale. An easy goal made the score to 0. A few attempts at rushing were fol-
  ward end, muffed the ball and it bounded into Fincke's hands. Like magIc Yales reference formed and Fincke falling behind il started down the field for Harvard's zeal. He left his interference behind after fifteen yards and eluded the Harvard backs and after a magnificent run of sixty yards, he planted the ball squarely behind the goal posts for the second score Hale kicked the goal and the first half ended with the score at 12 to 0 in Yale's favor.
 Frl rla hob fnr Captain Daly's men, and it was not long before they began to give way before the unprecedented onslaughts of the Yale men. Burnett has succeeded Lee just before the first half ended. Shortly after the kickoff in the second period the escrimson supporters were thrown into a panic when Daly, who had been limping, went to the side lines, and Harvard had lost her captain.
 In rapid succession Harvards men sur rendered, and before the game was over the crimson team had played twenty men. The only Yale man to leave was Olcott, the center, who, with five minutes to play, had sustained blow on the head, and Holt took his place. The scoring of the second half was of the spectacular order. Chad wick, the Yale halfback, was pushed across the line after a series of marvellous line punges which Harvard was utterly in- capable of checking.
 Stillman, a few minutes later, almost un- aided, tore down four chalk lines for the fourth touchdown.
 Sharp's punt out for one of these goals ended in a fzzle. Repeated Yale rushes brought the ball within striking distance and Sharpe was dropped back for his sec ond attempt at a field goal. The Yale line held like stone wall and Sharpe lifted the leather without trouble. It flew towards the goal posts struck one of the uprights and glanced through This ended the scor- ing. Yale's goal was never in danger liar yard not once reaching point nearer than the Yale 30-yard line. Throughout the game Yale retained possession of the ball three-fourths of the time, and when it fell to Harvard's lot on infrequent occasions to try and advance her line plays and for nations they were thrown back.
 The experts at the best points of observa- tion ascribed the victory to Yales magni- cent team work and the superb physical condition of her men.
