carry a warning to Princeton and Yale
He scored all three touchdowns for Hay-

rather difficult angle and intercepted
three forward passes made by Cornell
men, two of which led up to touchdowns
This human bat;ering ram seemed gifted
almost with second sight and rarely failed
to be in the right place at the right time.
Besides being strong, wonderfully strong,
on the offence, he was a power on the
secondary line of defence, and followed
the ball at all times with the cunning OF a
hound
Tack" Hardwick was no whit behind
his running mate and shared equal honors
although Brickley did practically all of
the scoring. His plungng paved the way
for all three touchdowns. and while he
was In the game the attack never lacked
the punch that was so necessary TO get
results
The Harvard machine, even without
three OF its strongest parts--O' Brien at
end, Eddie Mahan I'm the backfield and
Hitchcock at right tackle-worked with
that smoothness and power which made
the eleven last year one of the greatest
and best ever developed. While the regu-
lars were in action there did not seem to
be vulnerable spot. 1t was not until the
fourth period, when a full substitute
eleven was on the field, that the Cornell
men could drive their way to a touch
down.
Harvard began in a whirlwind fashion.

easiest thing in the world.
Cornell men showed no evidence OF
being stunned by the suddenness OF IT all
and returned to the fight in a way that
kept the ball out Of danger for good
ten minutes. Then a forward pass by
Barrett was intercepted by Brickley. who
plunged along for fifteen yards and land

quick thrust at the line netted six yards
and Hardwick, on a fake forward pass
play, jumped through hole In the centre
for ten yards, landing the ball under the
very shadow Of the Cornell goal posts.
The men from Ithaca then held firmly
and Hardwck failed to gain an inch in
two desperate lunges, but Brickley was
not to be denied and carried the ball over
on the next play for a touchdown. Hard
wick failed to kick the goal and the
period ended two minutes later
Harvards next score came early in the
second period. With the ball well down
in Crimson territory, Hardwick punted
and on the first scrimmage Barrett trieo
another forward pass. Again it was In

lodged his way to Cornelrs 20-yard line.
