Again Harvard reused her friends to enthusi-
asm by putting the heavy Yale line for repeated
gains through Hogan. Mills and BatChelder.
None Of them exceeded five or six yards, but
they were steady until offside play again set
the Crimson back. Then followed two frightfuI
passes by Parkinson which pointed the way TO
YaIe's first score. The second pass went plumb

Yards for holding. and when Mitchell punted to

time but II a short one. Farmer squeezed
through A. Marshall for five yards.
Then followed the most spectacular run Of
the game MetcaIf took the ball and was OFF

had TO punt. lie Moyne got through speedily
and blocked the kick. and II was Harvard's ball

the steam that she missed week before and
held Harvard TO the third down. with two yards
to go.

Marshall fell back TO the 20-yard line to try
10 drop q goal from the field. 1t was failure.
The Harvard captain was none too swift. and
a Yale forward blocked his kick. It rolled back
only fifteen Yards though, and was still Har-
wards leather. So the Crimson tried again.
The same tactics worked admirably and as
Yale was Aned five yards for Hogan's offside
play the first thing Harvard knew she was only
