NEW HAVEN. Conn, Nov. 22.-Yale uni
Versity established her supremacy in the
cast thls afternoon by defeating Harvard
In the annual game by % to o.
Nearly $4,000 spectators witnessed the
great game, under weather conditions that
could not have been improved from the
standpoint Of the onlookers. Il was a triae
TOO warm for the players, but the tenn
perature did not cause the contestants to let
/ up moment.
! 1t took the Yale men hve minutes to
| get their foot ball stride, but after that
the outcome was never in doubt In
| strength, in resources. generalship and
versatility the Yale men had a big ad-
vantage over their Harvard rivals Four
| times Harvard's goal lines were crossed
FOR Yale touchdowns. three OF which were
converted into goals.
Score in Both Halves.
The scoring was divided almost so,sIlv
between the halves, two touchdowns COM
ing in each period The Yale victory was
the result rather of straight foot ball than
| OF spectacular brilliancy. Three Of the
| touchdowns came after heart-breaking
/ plunges through Harvard's defense
Practically the only open play of the day
was witnessed when Metcalf duplicated the
| work OF Captain Chadwick at Princeton
last week, and. leaping through a yawning
| gap in Harvard's line, ran seventy-three
yards for the second touchdown. He did
not find clear field, but was given superb
| interference until he was able to clear all
the Harvard tacklers except Mills, whom
he eluded by clever lodging. Yale's three
other scores were made by Chadwick, Kim
ney and Hogan. all of whom were pushed
over the line by mass plays, directed at
the cented OF Harvards line.
Only twice did Harvard have a chance to
! score. Once by magnificent line breaking
Yale was forced back from the forty-yard
line to within eight yards of the goal. A
tumble by Herman was followed by Yale
stand which took the ball from Harvard
on downs.
In the second half Harvard succeeded In
reaching Yales twenty-two- yard line, but
! Yale here developed stone w-il defense,
and a kick was Harvards only hepe Mar
shall tried for a goal from the field and
missed by yards, otherwise the play was
almost entirely in Harvard's territory and
the Yale advance was consistent. Now
and then a crimson brace would come and
for the moment the Harvard enthusiasts
were encouraged, but Yales strength was
too great.
There was little kicking as compared with
the ale-Princeton game of a week ago,
and here Yale outclassed Harvard.
While the play was vicious, there was
hardly a semblance of slugging and the
rivals played with becoming regard for
the rules.
Four changes took place in Yale's lineup,
while Harvard sent FIVE Of it's men to the
! side No one was seriously hurt, Goss,
Yales right guard, sustaining the most
painful injury in the shape of a kick on the
hand.
Glass and Rockwell Stars.
There were no particular stars, except
perhaps Glass and Rockwell. both OF Yale.
Glass and the other Yale forwards clearly
outplayed their opponents, and Rockwell.
Yale's quarterback, displayed cool-headed-
ness and generalship which place him in
the front ranks Of quarterbacks The Har-
ward team was perhaps a faster aggrega-
tion than Yale's.
In the first half Yale kicked Ave times
for a total of 149 yards and in the second
three times for ninety-nine yards.
! Yale in the first half rushed total dis
: tance of 1875 yards. In the second, 212
) during which It had twenty-one first downs
D Harvard in the hrst half kicked three
times for 107 yards, and in the second
/ five times for $50 yards, and rushed the
2 ball in scrimmage seventy yards In the
: first and a scant thirteen in the second
g Harvard had eleven first downs in the
first, but only two In the second.
The fumblee OF the crimson team proved
! costly, FIVE being made in the first halt
and one Of them on Yales right line.
