There remained but five minutes Of

straight through the Harvard lines.

Who Finished
The Game :?
[Orisinal.l

lOrleinall
There is a dispute about certain
eature of the Yale-Harvard football
ame back in 1S9- that is no nearer &
Iettlement than it was all hour after
he game was finished. All the men
Eho were engaged in it have left col
ege long ago, but the matter has been
banded down TO the undergraduates
Ind serves for subject Of perpetual
wanging. The trouble was that in
hose days they played the game too
late in the day. and before it could be
finished it was so dark one could
scarcely distinguish one side from the
bther.
The dispute in question could not
have arisen except for this cause. The
game was played on Thanksgiving
day, very nearly the shortest in the
year. This particular Thanksgiving
was cloudy; consequently the dark
ness came on earlier than usual.
The way of it was this: Barnard
Was the center rush for Yale, and it
wasn't known till the game began that
he was suffering from some heart com
|phcation, probably brought on at prac-
uee the day before. when he suddenly
tainted after a hard scrimmage. His
eoctor forbade his going into the
thanksgiving game. but he was loyal
70 his college, and he knew it would
0se without him. At any rate, there
was consultation on Thanksgiving
|eVe and when the boys appeared from
pehlnd locked doors it was announced
lnat there had been a mistake about
bannard's heart trouble and he would
take MS place in the team next day.
Everything Went straight enough till
