Saturdays Gridiron Disaster
 Being Quickly Forgotten

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 22-TheI Yale undergraduate body settled down. to the winters work. All the foot | ball men are back attending classes and there are no injuries as the re | suit of Saturdays defeat by Harvard |
 There was little betting on the game for several reasons-chiefly and mos satisfactory to the college authorities is the fact that the students were interested in the team because of it personnel Another reason was that Yale was favorite at a short price.
 While the members of the team are not yet discussing it and probably will not until the ballot next week the students are naturally interested in who the successor to Mac Aldrict will be. The choice lies betweer Doc. Jordan, right halfback, and Phi Cruikshank left guard. though there are several other juniors who have won their letters.
 Jordan has had longer experience on Yale teams. Two years ago he was on the freshman team. Las year and this year he was in the var sty back field and played a star game He comes from Bangor, Me, and pre- pared at Phillips Exeter. He Is twen ty-three years old, weighs 1855 pound' and is feet II inches tall. During the war he served in the navy.
 Cruikshank played on his freshman team two years ago and previous tt that had played at Hotchkiss. H' was on the varsity squad last yea but didn't get in the big game. He i; twenty years old, weighs 195 poundi and is just feet tall. He come; from Decatur III. He played through both the Princeton and Harvard games this year and was the onl, player on the team to play through out the latter.
 The Yale News has the following tt say about the team and Capt. Aldricl in it's editorial this morning:
 Some irrespressible optimists ar' already beginning to talk about thu years to come. Admirable as thei attitude may be in the abstract. it i a painful and inefftual remedy for tn, depression which has seized the res of the university. Obvious to thu future, most of the undergraduate prefer to remain while among tn, the desolate ruins of the present When time has eventually given tn, disaster it's proper perspective, ther' will be consolation in the knowledge that Tad Jones has laid the soio foundation for ultimate success.
 Saturdays game was one of tn. greatest surprises in football histor. and a system wert Harvard's principal weapons, anc they proved to be the weapons ad suited to the situation. liar ward was outkicked and outrushed but not outwitted. Through thre, periods the Yale players fought des perately to score a touchdown, onl, to find themselves weak wher was most needed. Thel the disaster came. In the opinion of the university. Capt. Aldrich' team deserved a better fate. If so is to be doubly congratulated upon the victory.
 During the past three years ther, has grown up in Cambridge a legend of the bloody crossbar, symbol o terror to those who face Harvard or the football field. It was conclusivel, proved in Saturdays game that fol Yale men the Crimson "H' holds nC fears. From beginning to end tho spectators watched a glorious struggle Defeated in the final game of the sea son, the 1921 team will go down as one of Yale's great elevans and Nal colm Aldrich as one of Yale's great est Captains"
