School, 12 to O.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, October 14.-Har-
ward defeated Springfield Training School
on Soldiers Field this afternoon, u to 0, a
score not quite half as large as that which

tackle plays worked the ball down and
across the goal line for the first score just
before time was called.
In the second half there was more rum
bling. but another good rally began, and
gains by Foster and WendaH advanced the
ball until Foster was sent over for the sec

YALE DEFEATS HOLY CROSS.
Holly Contested But One-Sided Game
at New Haven.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, October 14.-Yale
defeated Holy Cross this afternoon in a
hotly contested game by the score OF 30 to
0. The play was particularly hard in the
first half, Holy Cross giving the Blue rush
line thorough trying out, although Yale
managed to run up three touchdowns in
that period. With many substitutes in her
line and the back field entirely new Yale
failed to set such Il fast pace in the second
half, scoring but twice. The Yale play was
clean, marred by but few fumbles, and
noteworthy for the fact that both Veeder
and Jones kicked all goals resulting from
touchdowns
Holy Cross received Yale kickoff and
started the game with fierce onslaught on
the Yale forwards, boring holes through the
line with such vim that the spectators were
amazed. But Yale's secondary defense
finally stopped up the holes. Yale then bat
tered away at both ends of the line and
through the guards until Flynn. in close
formation, scored a touchdown. Yale put
her battering ram plays into effect again.
and Veeder finally scored The third touch
down came speedily through a series of
long runs and quick plays that swept the
visitors off their feet.
In the second half Yale sent in thirteen
or fourteen substitutes. T. Jones' who was
at quarterback for Yale, aroused excite

equally dashing sprnts. Both touchdowas
