CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Oct 25--The Har-
ward varsity football team reaped a
~ point harvest against University of
Virginia in the stadium this afternoon.
scoring seven touchdowns and getting
goals on In all except two. The regular
team got about half the points before
substitutes were sent in.
The second stringers, against a light
and very tired set of college boys. crossed
the goal line four times. Against the
substitutes however Virginia, because
of Russelrs ability to get the ball on a
tumble by Freddie Church. was able to
try out the Crimson's defense we'll In its
own territory.
! From the 30 yard line, for a few
| PUSHES, the defense was found wanting
| because the Southerners, opening up
brilliant attack swept to the Crimsons
Q yard line, There. on a fourth down,
with two yards to go. Rinehart threw a
| forward pass into the end zone. Russell
being Just able to reach the ball. The
Charlottesville team provided Harvard
with no such test as It had q week ago
Except for fumbling. Harvard was able
to gain almost at will after once being
stopped for downs early in the game.
Brilliant Open Work.
Fine interference and brilliant open
field running placed Fishers team in
position for many of its scores, and at
the finish the linemen and the backs did
some great plugging for the points. 1t
was on the line. however, that Harvard
| again showed its team play, and this
afternoons speed would have served to
get a good sized score against an oppo-
nent not a little better than the Vir-
ginians to-day.
Harvards play in the first quarter was
better and longer sustained than in the
Brown game. the Cambridge line and
backs showing benefits of their hard
| drilling during the last week.
Particularly was the interference for
the open field running better organized
than anything seen on Sold ers Field this
year. Two touchdowns were made In the
first twelve minutes. and at the end of
the first quarter the ball had been car
ried to Virginia's yard line. to be
plugged over from there on the first play
Of the next quarter.
In these twelve minutes Harvard was
together as a team beautifully. The
running of Murray, Humphrey and Hor-
ween was good in itself. but the for
wards and the backs themselves piled
into the play in a way that reminded one
OF the days when players like Hard
wick. Bradec and Mahan were clipping
, out tackers.
Harvard. receiving the kickoff, adj
vanced for a first down and then Muir
ray, running from kicker's position
broke clearly through the Virginlans
left wing and covering nearly forty-five
!, yards before he was caught by the
Southeners' quarterback within fifteen
yards of their goal. Here Harvard was
helped by AN opponents offside play,
but Immediately lost its punch and was
held for downs on the yard line.
Virginia. however, could not rush the
ball out yard and after getting the
punt from II. Rinehart Murray romped
, back TO his opponents 80 yard line.
, Humphrey added a ten yard gain and
then the Charlottesville boys were Off
side twice.
Starting again from the Is yard line
Harvard delivered a scoring punch In
earnest and Humphrey shot across for
the first touchdown. from which Murray
failed to kick the goal. The Harvard
leader then made up for this inaccuracy
, by running the kickoff back for flfty-one
yards, well past the middle of the field
The ball was lost temporarily when
, Henkins intercepted a forward pass
! Virginia punted poorly.
Horween Breaks Away.
After one play Arnold Horweeu broke
through the Southerner's left wing for
J 81 yards In making the run Horween
| showed ali lllt DIIiIdHCy pTtulCltu lot
| him, when he came back to the form he
: showed as a freshman three years ago
; He was tackled at least three times, and
once four Virginans were at him at
once. But he shook them all loose and
finally was stopped only foot from the
goal line.
| A touchdown came on the first play
From the next kick off, Humphrey ran
J the ball back to Virginia's 80 yard line,
covering nearly seventy yards and being
: prevented by Burnett from getting alto
( gether clear. Harvard then bent to the
line attack, again and covered the last
thirty yards in Ave plays There was no
more scoring in the second PERIOD in
which Harvard had the ball in its 60
ponent's territory all the time.
In the second half. with new men,
Harvard ripped things up with VEN
geance. Church was the brilliant per-
former, his open field runs equalling any
Eddie Casey would have been able to
! make. One score was made on thirty
yards OF plugging after Philbin inter-
cepted a forward pass.
Nirginias one chance, In the middle
! of the half. was brilliant Russell COM
pleted two forward passes and Seward
once nearly broke loose for "A clear field.
Harvard braced after first down on tho
sixteen yard line and the Virginians did
i not have the break" with their final
