visitors scoring on a drop kick by
Capall. who sent the ball over from

given Lehigh the chance for a field
goal.
Lehigh started with a fine driving
attack and sound defensive play, while
fale's play all through the first bali
was ragged. The absence Of ALEC"
Wilson at quarter was a big handicap
Ia defensive work and there was great
lack OF coordination and power.
Fumbling Of passes and kicks was
frequent and Wiley's passing handi-
capped the offence. Twice in the sec
ond quarter the Yale centre passed
low and inaccurately, the play costing
fifteen yards each time. Both teams
kicked frequently Leeore getting of
the longer drives. His efforts were
nullified by Capall, however, the little
Lehlgh quarter flashing back nearly
every time for ten or twenty yards

the surest in handling the ball and the
hardest man to stop. He got away for
three long lodging runs. going over for
a touchdown or one of the dashes.
Scoville played brilliantly for Yae
while he was az half He was a big
factor in Yales tearing attack in the
last two quarters and was the strongest
player on the secondary defensive.
Club" Sheldon played a fine game at
right tackle. breaking through the Lee
high line time and again.
The Yale ends showed greatly i'm

field, while Tug" Wilson, besides play
ing a good defensive game. made the
most sensational play of the day when
he intercepted one of CahalPs long
passes and ran thirty yards. paving the
way for lale's second touchdown.
Hoban and Sawtelle, for Lehigh.
caught forward passes perfectly and
their work handling Cahall's throws
had the Blue all at sea in the first two
quarters.

vance on the second play. following
Lehigh's kickoff, and Legore had 10
punt. There were numerous exchanges
of punts. and after getting the ball on
downs. Yale made ten yards on the
complicated manPuvre Of a double pass
and a forward pass. An intercepted
forward pass cost Yale possession Of
the ball, and then long forward pass
to Sawtelle gave Lehigh the ball on the
18-yard line. A smash at left tackls
gave Cahall a perfect opportunity for
a field goal and he kicked 1t easily.
With a minute to play, Hoban
dropped Legore's punt. HigginbothaIn
seemingly interfering fiagrantly'wtf
the catch, but going unscathed. and, lie
