HARVARD WINS VICTORY
But Vanderbilt Leaves Reputation for
Gameness and Speed.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 11.-Har-
ward sent the Vanderbilt football team
back to the southland with a 9 to 3
defeat, but the commodores left be-
hind them a reputation for speed and
versatility IN attack and stubbornn ess
in defense that will be remembered.
Using a team made up almost Who'll
1y of substitutes, Harvard scored a
touchdown and a field goal in the sec
ond and fourth periods, respectively.
Crimson errors permitted the south
erners in the third period to get with
in drop kicking distance of Harvard S
goal and Curtin lifted the ball over for
three points.
AS usual, Harvard tried out the
strength of its defense in the first
period, kicking usually on the second
down. 1t was not until after five min
utes of play in the second period that
Harvard's attack reached its full stride
and then the ball was carried down
the field 35 yards for a touchdown.
Vanderbilt came back strong in the
third period, scoring a field goal and
outplaying the crimson until the two
last minutes. Then Harvard brought
its strongest offense into action and
the ball was carried to the four-yard
line. The strength of the Vanderbilt
defense proved too strong for the Har-
ward attack, and after three rushes,
Mtlholland, the crimson end, dropped
a goal from the field from the 22-yard
line.
Vanderbilt brought out in the last
ten minutes of play nearly her full
repertoire of offensive tactics Among
the most successful plays was delay
ed forward pass in which the ball was
handled by four men and finally
snatched down from the air by Rob
bins for gain of % yards. 1t was
one of the most brilliantly executed
plays seen in the stadium since Cor
nell uncovered triple forward pass
three years ago.
The Vanderbilt attack was we'll
judged variety, of end runs. DELAYED
passes followed by plunges through big
holes in the Harvard line and numer-
Gus attempts at the forward pass. only
two of which. however, were success
full. The Harvard defense for the
Vanderbilt plays would crumpIe up for
a couple of scrimmages then the Grim
son forwards would fathom the at
tack and the opposing backs would be
thrown for losses.
