NEW HAVEN, Conn, Oct Finding
themselves in the second hals after being
played to a standstill during the first
two periods. the Yale football players
downed Vermont in the final quarter
to-day and won. IA to 0. The Vermont
ers came here with well coached
eleven In the care of Tom Ready and
pulled themselves out of some deep holes
in the first and second periods.
Four times Yale had the ball inside
OF the Is yard l!ne but the Ell punch
was lacking. and each time Vermont
got out of trouble. Brock was compelled
to kick from behind his own goal line
three times. Two kicks by Capt. Aldrich
proved lucky ones for Yale In the early
part of the game. Gooch, the quarter
back. allowed one to roll out of bounds
half foot from the corner. and the
other drop kick, went out two yards
from the corner of the field.
Aidrich tried three goals from the
held and missed each time. and Oed, the
substitute quarterback. failed on the
two. The Yale backield did fine work
in the second half; that is, two-thiirds
OF the backfed did Mallory, the right
halfback. played through three and a
half periods and was not given the ball
once. Jordan and Aldrich did practi-
cally all the running with the ball. Oed

quarterback run or by giving the ball
to an Eli end. Yales experimental team
held the Vermonters to a Single first
down.

passes and only two were successful for

and were successful twice. Yale stuck
mostly to a lire bucking game and
something resembling the old Yale
puch was uncovered In the third quarter.
With scoreless first half behind

when the teams took the field again. An
exchange of punts found the ball in
Aldrich's arms on his 3S yard line An
off side play set Vermont back five yards
and then march down the field began
which resulted in a touchdown by Aid

| of Semansky. clipped off yard after
yard. Oed found the left side of Ver-
mont line weak and played his backs
| against 1t on almost every down Steady
