CRIMSON OUTPLAYS BLUE
Out of Seven Tries BrickIey
Sends Ball Over Bar Five
Times for Fifteen Points
Yale Gets Its Points BY One
Field Goal BY Guernsey and
Safety.

(By the Associated Pres.)
Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 22.-The
Harvard football team of 1913 with
Fullback Charles E. Brickley in the
stellar role established a new epoch
in Crimson gridiron history today by
defeating Yale for the first time in
the stadium by the score Of Is to S.
Although twenty points were record
cd by the two e%levens, neither sue
ceeded in carrying the ball across the
others goal line. Seven times Brick |
ley drove the ball spinning over the
heads of the Yale players and five
times it crossed the goal bar for Grim |
son points. Four times Guernsey OF
Vale essayed the same feat but only |
once did the leather sphere cross Har- |
wards goal. To the Ellis earned three
two, due to an unintentional safety by
Left End O'Brien of Harvard.
Thus, thanks to Brickley, did Har-
ward defeat Yale for the second time
IN two years and within undisputed
right to the intercollegiate champion
ship. Excellent as vas Brickley's
play, both in running and kicking,
however, the splendid machine that
Coach Haughton developed this au-
tumn, it was the conserted play and
Efforts of the eleven as a whole that
paved the way for the situation from
which Brickley scored Harvard's fiji
teen points.
That Guernsey. on the other hand,
failed to approach Brickley's feat was
due almost entirely to the fact hat
the team in front of him could not
hold or drive back the Crimson. That
such should he the case clearly was
accounted for by the coaching meth
DDS and system of attack and defense.
Harvard played a well-balanced game
IN which the best and most conser-
Native parts of the new and old fo0t-
ball were successfully combined. OPP
posed to this was a Yale game that
would undoubtedly have won under
the five yards in three downs" days;
but it was absolutely unsuited to win
against the Harvard eleven of 1913.
Bricklcy's Great Work.
In every department the Crimson
surpassed the Blue and there was am
pie reason for the unrestrained rejoic.
ing in Boston and Cambridge tonight.
Harvard in all gained 219 yards
against Yale's las yards.
Harvard players ran Yale punts
1873 yards against "a yards thus re-
gained by the Eli backfield. In pen
alties Yale lost 80 yards for holding
and rough tackii1 e to Harvard's five
Yards for offside play.
Brickley, by his phenomenal play
ing and kicking in this and preceding
games. virtually assured himself o.
the captaincy of the 1914 eleven ant
ms record is SO unusual as to fndl
cate clearly hat he will have no op
ponent. AS a freshman he kicket
Tour field goals for the Harvart
Youngsters against Princeton, and fol
lowed that feat by scoring all tn
points against the Varsity Tigers tn
next year. Last season he kicked thre
goals against Yale, gaining nine o
the twenty points scored by HarVar'
and won both the Yale and Princeton
games of 1913 by his remarkable dro.
and placement kicking. This seasol
alone he has kicked eleven field goal
IN nine games.
Brickley, aside from his field goa
Kicking, proved that he is a player Q
all-round merit, for he gained man
yards in line plunges and broken feel
runs. On the defense he shone q
the leader in diagnosing Yale's attacl
particularly the forward pass.
Standing on the 26-yard line in tn
trst period, he scored Haryard's inltls
three points, followed with anothe
goal from the 3S-yard line in the set

session-one from placement-an
