quarter Of a century over Yale in the
new blue bowl" today. Five toucbdowns
brought the points to &c to in favor of
the crimson. The harvard offense drove
Yale back for many yards, while the
dreaded Yale lateral pass was unable to
bring a blue score. Twice Yale stood
almost under the Harvard goal post but
could not produce score.
The strength of the Harvard defense
was one of the most remarkable shown
by a Crimson team in many years. One of
the sensations was the appearance of
Captain Brickley in the fourth period
Brlckley figured in the svvr-ng by kicking
a goal.
The usual demonstration followed the
end Of the game and it was singular that
the three latest foot ball edifces of Har-
ward, Princeton and Yale should have
received their dedication by defeats of the
home team.

defend the south goal. Yale gave the
Crimson the kick off and Mahan booted
to Legore. who came back thirty yards
from the seven-yard mark. Two attempts

Harvard back went all the way to Yale's
thirty-seven-yard mark, Knowles tackling
him from the rear.

once the Crimson made first down on
the twenty-five-yard line. Bradlee hit
the line for five and Francke made six
yards on fake kick, then repeated for
five more, and Bradlee on a delayed pass
went TO the five-yard mark. Talbot threw

goal line. Yale claimed Mahan touched
the ball before it crossed and claimed
safety, which was not allowed
Starting from their twenty-yard mark
the Harvard backs ripped off gains of
fifteen, sixteen, fifteen, five and eight
yards. Then a penalty of fifteen for
holding halted them and Mahau was
