HARDWICK MAKES
WINNING TOUCHDOWN
MaulbetSch Raises Havoc with
Cambridge Line by His
Powerful plungeS.
BY HERBERT.

but cleanly played struggle.
That loyal band of 1.00l rooters from
Michigan, with a spirit never equalle
sud an enthusiasm not dulled by de-
feat, was disappointed IN the score, but
not with their team. Truly, 10 may be
said that apart from the measure OF
difference that lies between winning
and losing, the team from Ann Arbor,
the team that only a week ago was
fairly crushed by Syracuse, met the
Crimson eleven on equal footing and
lost little or nothing m comparison.
Harvard carried the scoring punch
i'm one well directed offensive move
ment. and Michigan did not in two
marches down the field that ended once
only four yards from touchdown and
again only six yards from III coveted
goal line.
Game Full of Thrills.
That lust about tells the story Of a
came that was full of exciting stu
atoms from the first kickoff to the
last whistle. of a game in which Mlchi-
gan carried most of the fight into har-
ward territory and OF game that lett
am irdelible impression on the brains
Of those who looked down from the
towering heights Of the stadium.
Tack Hardwick scored Harvard :
touchdown and kicked the goal early
I'M the second period after the nome
team had been ON the defensive prac-
tically every minute OF the hrst quar-
tor An exchange of punts, which, ard
cd Nv the wind and a tumble on the
mart of Hughitt, gained tuu hiteen
wards for the Crimson, put the Dali OF
YNchican's 45-yard line.
Then Harvard cut loose with sharp
+brusts through the centre or OF
tackle for short but consistent gains,
varied with one well executed forward
mas. for an advance of eleven yarcS,
until finally Hardwick slipped through
D broad and inviting opening IN Mlcnl-
cau's right wing as the Wolverines
were drawn out of position by TENT
al the left side and stepped almost
unhindered over the last six yards ior
the touchdown that spelled victory. AS
] said before. Hardwick kicked the goal
which added the extra point
The game was won then and there'
as il turned out, but the struggle was
far from over. With an lrresisuo.e
incentive 30 greater things the o.
verines, so called from a certain !h'-
NAL which Ring Lardner insists las
never been seen around the confines o.
Ann Arbor in all his experience OF
fortv-seven years. or maybe II was
twentv-seven years, would not concede
defeat any more taan would their iol-
lovers i'm the stands until the en1
came and Harvard carried on the Oalt
as a fitting trophy Of nara eaIheu
and well merited victory.
All through the third period ana III
the early part of the fourth the CriIn-
.on PLAYERS had their backs to the
WALL so 20 speak. as Michigan launched
an assault. headed by the remarka-
bile NaulbetSch, which time and again
threatened imminent danger, but HaI-
ward finally checked the most persist
ent and dangerous OF these advances
on its own 6-yard line and then, roust'
10 the sheer necessity OF meeting
punch with punch, took the lnltlaINe
and drove the Wolverines back ana
hack i'm the last few minutes Of the
game.
Michigan RoOters Loyal.
Those who came out to the stadium,
and the number was not lar snort OF
$4,000. experienced many thrills and
enjoyed an the frills which go TO make
up a football game between college
eIevens Michigan, as said before,
counted mighty few, comparatively
-peaking, in the big crowd, but those
lew were a host in themselves, and
such cheering and singing from a
thousand Threats had 10 be heard TO
be appreciated. IL was impressive.
Between the halves the Michigan band
of sixty pieces, In maize and blue,
marched up and down the gridiron, and
forming, by a pretty evolution, huge
M" stood by the cheering section and
played the college hymn. The scene
sent a creepy feeling up and down the
spines of hundreds upon hundreds Of
that gathering, while the applause and
handclapping which followed the hush
showed clearly how spirits had been
aroused
Harvard enjoyed it all and gave
hearty response to every SHOW OF
workmanship that came from the rival
camp The Crimson cheer leader, VINO
without exaggerstion had as much mu-
sic in his feet as On his soul, kept the
Harvard rOOtere 10 their work IN a way
that added distinct feature TO one OF
the most interesting games ever played
ir this college town.
Just two lines for the weather, al
though it deserves more space. II was
so nearly perfect that qualifying
phrase would be unfair.
Getting back 20 the game, let IT be
tdlO llaf the followers OF lOOlDoA4 WV =
sadly disappointed If they expected
Michigan to depend on the more or .ess
dazzling and brilliant open style OF
play Of which so much has been said OF
Western teams.
Fielding II. Yost, who is called
"Hurry Up" for short, carried out a
conservative policy, TO say the least
One forward pass which was intercept
ed ard three or four sweeping end runs
from a fake forward pass formation
we're the sum and substance of Mich
CAMS open game The attack directed
by Hughitt, the brilliant and heady
quarterback who, by the way, played
under the handicap Of a stiff and heav-
lily strapped left elbow-was of the
plunging kind.
Plays of Split Variety.
The plays were directed through the
