1ul OF spectacular incidents. Harvard
sent team upon the field that proved
10 be much stronger in many respects
than the most ardent supporters of the
Crimson dared to hope for; yet Yale
won creditable victory.
1t was a game of lost opportunities
for Harvard, while Yale made the most
of her chances and earned her first
touchdown by her ability to gain
ground by scrimmage attack. Metcalf
reeled off 33 yards around Haryards
right wing, planting the ball on the
Crimson's siX-yard line. With a touch
down in sight, Yale hammered away
with fierce rushes until Kinney went
over. This was the only score in the
first half, during which Harvard
showed greater ground gaining ability
than her opponent.
Harvard had three chances to score
in the first period, losing the ball once
on tumble on Yale's five-yard line
and on two other occasions Capt. Mar
shall tried for goals from the field, but
his attempts We're not successful.
Both teams came on the field for the
second period without change in line
up. They had been in action only
few minutes before the mighty Hogan
broke through and, blocking LIE
Moyne's kick, chased the ball over the
fo,
score 10 to against her, Harvard be-
gan an attack that swept all before it.
Mills, who replaced Schoellkopf. made
o sensational run of 25 yards and then
Yale was pounded back to her very last
ditch. With the ball inside of her one
yard line, Harvard could advance no
farther owing to the impenetrable blue
wall that formed in front of Yale's goal.
This was Harvard'S last chance to
score by rushing the ball. Later On
the Crimson tried for a goal from
placement, but LIE Moyne's effort did
not bring the desired result. Yale's
final touchdown was made through the
medium of another blocked kick which
gave the Ellis possession on Harvard's
2S-yard line. From this point Yale
forced Harvard back for a touchdown.
Hogan took the ball over and Mitchell
kicked the goal.
