Plaeemen. is Missed.

Ptacennenc lS Missed. 3 Yale ends were racing madly in pur- suit and a touchdown looked probable. But Horween. wbo was back, saved l trouble by dropping on the baE on his own five yard line. Two iine plunges l netted five yards and Horwcen kikced to LaRoche, who made fair catch on Harvard's 40 yard Ilne. Cemerford wide by inches, the ball striking an | upright and bounding back. l Then Dame Fortune favored Yale. ] It came in the way of lucgiIy re- ford's try at goal. Harvard put the 1 ball in play on her 20 yard line and punted after two unfruitful tries. Yale | took the ball at Tnidfe1G. Three line and tackle plays netted 10. wards. It was the first time the Ellis had gained | the 10 yards for a first down. | On the next play things broISe for Yale. Neville tore into Harvard's left 1 tackle. He got a yard, but fumbled- | Gates, who had chased around, grabbed
 the ball and took 1t to Harvard's 12 yard line. Neville. Jacques and Legore
 then drove through for nine. yards in | three ties. .s5z-- Crimson Defense stiffens. l A moment later t was Yaie's ball, I first down and two yards to go for a l touchdown. The Crimson defense was
 stubborn. Three tries got scarcely l more lnan a ydTs1 "ltn Lu6 last ] chance at hand, LaRoche sent Neville 1 in to the Crimson line in the wake of | the giant Fox. When the mass was untangled the Blue plunger was over by scant foot.
 l Comerford missed a rather difficult l goal Shortly after kickoff time was l called for the half with the score: Harvard 3, Yale 6.
 1 Yale took the Harvard's kickoff, starting the third period, but found the Crimson defense stubborn and was l forced to punt. Neither side could
 negotiate the opposing defense at this | stage and the contest resolved into l another bunting exhibition.
 Yale finally recovered the ball after l a Harvard tumble at midfeld. Legore
 tore past Harvard's left flank for a sprint of q yards. X line play got a yard and five yard penalty against
 Harvard put the ball on the B yard line.
 Legore chucked | pass to Gates
 which netted 16 yards and downed the ball on HarvarG's seven yard line Two line plays got but two yards and a pass was s1nothered. Braden began warming up, but the ball was near the
 side line for a fourth down and try
 for goal was out of the question. La Roche called for pass, but Harvard linemen broke through ard downed | Legore on the 15 yard line before the pass was E1ade and took the ball on
 downs at that point. The period end ed with the ball in midfield and with no scoring.
 Punts Are Exchanged. l An exchange Of punts shortly after
 the last period began left the ball well
 down in Crimson territory in posses Il sion of the defenders. Fake kick for
 nations proved costly and the Crimson
 kicked from its 10 yard line. The ball
 rolled to Y&le's 3G yard line.
 The Ellis began here battering at 1 tack to the center and on the wings
 Legore, Neville and LaRoche were lo-
 ing the hulk of ihe work. This trio clicked off two first downs, taking the ball past midfield. Here Harvard stiff ] fened and forced a punt, which was recovered on the 20 yard line.
 Resorting to straight tactics, both
 teams again ran afoul of defense too strong to overcome. Punts followed leaving Harvard with the bail on the S4 yard line.
 Next the Crimson executed a well
 concealed pass to the left side of the line which netted 5 yards Il A Harvard penalty carried the Ellis
 to their 40 yard lire, and battering
 attack by Legore and Neville. Legore
 tried for a goal from the 45 yard line
 but failed.
 The Crimson took the ball and began : a desperate drive. Rusnes netted one i: first down, but pass was intercepted T by Legore, who ran to his 40 yard line
 Time was called d moment later. Z The lineup:
