Plays Straight Football.

What surprised the followers Of foot
ball was that Yale played absolutely
straight football. letting trick plays and
forward passes alone. Coy's punting was
less accurate than is usual, but other
wise he made excellent gains. and did
some fine defensive work
The feature OF the game was a 55-yard
run through a broken field for a touch
down by Tad Jones. at the beginning Of
the second half. Tad Jones made an
other touchdown in an across-held run,
when Yale had driven Brown 20 its 10
yard line The final touchdown was made
by Brides.
