Easily Beats Tufts

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, No. 15.-Har-
ward, with many substitutes in the
line, had lite difficulty in Debating
Tufts to-day. % to 0, although there
was no scoring during the first half
and at the end of the third period
Harvard led only 3 to O. In the fourth
quarter, however, with Arno d Hor-
tween, who was substituting for Ham
ilton at right halfback, furnishing the
driving power, Harvard scored three
touchdowns, two of which were TO-
owed by goals.
Many fumb'es and poor pulnting by
Tufts contributed to her defeat. In
the first half Tufts worked severa
long forward passes for substar tial
gains, but in the second ha'f the Har-
ward defense stiffened against this
form of attack.
Harvard scored a field goal in the
third period after Church had brought
the ball we'll into Tuftss territory
tby long runs. Felton, rep aced John
son at quarterback and booted a goal
from the 25-yard line. Two previous
attempts at fed goals oy Gratwiek
had failed. Tufts also failed to score
field goal from the 40-yard line.
In the fourth period Church again
brought the ball far into Tuffs's ter
ritory by long runs, and Horween
bucked the line for the first touch
down. The same tactics were imme-
diately repeated, Nelson carrying the
ba through for another touchdown.

DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE COM
MITTEE TAKES STEP BY
~ TO
STATE NEWS OF INTEREST
Brief News Items OF important Gath
cred From All Parts
OF The State

Atlanta.-Women OF Atlanta were
given the right 10 vote In the coming
city primary through action taken by
the city Democratic executive commit
tee. which adopted a resolution TO
that effect by vote OF twenty-four
to one. The adoption Of the equal
suffrage resolution by the committee
means that Atlanta has set the pace
for the state Of Georgia in fayoring
the enfranchisement Of women.
The action was made possible by the
fact that the local primary committee
controls the white primary OF the city,
which is not affected by state laws.
II is within the discretion Of the COM
mittee, which acts under a sort OF
"gentlemen's agreement" TO grant the
ballot to Atlanta women for any one
primary. although similar action would
have 10 be taken by subsequent com
mittees TO give them this privilege in
succeeding elections. The only meth
cd by which women OF the state at
large could secure the vote would be
through action OF the state leglsla-
ture on a constitutional amendment,
which would then have to be submit
ted to the people for approval at the
ballot box.
