First Triple Tie for
Big Three Championship

Special Despatch to TIE New YORK HERALD
@AMBRIDGE. Mass, Nov. 19.-
AS the eventide came down
~ into the stadium late this
afternoon a Harvard football team
not only defeated a fighting host
from Yale but upset Big Three foot
bail tradition. AS Princeton had
beaten Harvard and Yale had won
over the Tigers. the triumph of the
Crimson to-day established a triple
tie for the title in the Big Three
company. Never before in all the
long history Of their relations on the
gridiron had there been such de-
velopnent--and Harvard d-YaIe foot
ball relations date back to 1876.
For Yale the defeat came as n
stunning disappointment. which up
set another tradition. Never before
had a Yale team which had gone into
the game with Harvard unbeaten
been defeated by the Crimson. Never
before had n Yale eleven which had
defeated Princeton been outscored by
a team from Harvard.
Tradition fell fighting with Yale
in the soggy turf.

Harvnrd's Triumph Just.

Harvard's victory over Yale was a
just and consistent triumph as the two
teams finished the season and as the
game was played. Harvard won because
the Crimson possessed a more varied
and more cleverly devised system OF
plays and because the Crimson used
these plays to better advantage as
special situations arose throughout the
game.
Both elevens employed principally the
kick formation. secondarily a tandem
and now and then a spread formation.
The interior construction OF these for
nations, however. differed radically on
the two teams Yale's tandem consisted
OF two backs, side by side. four yards
behind the line of scrimmage. but with
the third back deployed far TO the out
side. beyond and behind the end. This
is the formation that has been used by
Cornell and the Navy for severa, years.
Harvard's tandem formation differed
from that Of Yale merely in the position
OF the first two backs In the Yale for
nation they stood parallel to the limo
OF scrimmage. In the Harvard fornla-
tion one back stood slightly in advance
Of the other. Harvard also In the kick
formation deployed one of her backs far
out, as in tho tandem formation.
The spread formations. although not
new were highly intricate. These diff
ferent formations were so varied In their
use and were so successfully employed
that they furnished continual diver
sion 10 the tacticians. who found an ab-
stract pleasure IN them.

again enabled to score drop lSick from
the 81 yard line.
The statistics of detailed play in this
game, which appear elsewhere In THE
New York HERALD, might mislead some
into believing that Yale was the stronger
of the two teams. Thus throughout the
afternoon Yale executed los offensive
plays for a total gain of 1.160 yards
whereas Harvard made only 81 offensive
plays for gain OF 1.127 yards.
In this grand total it viii be noticed
that Yale covered far more ground by
running attacks than did Harvard. 22O
yards to l44. and that Yale made ten
first downs to Harvard's seven. Yale's
larger total of gains by running attack,
however. is swelled by several long but
Intellectual runs by Jordan and Aldrich.
Yales excess in the running attack
was nullified in play by Harvards
superior use of forward passes, and like
wise more clever interception OF Yale's
forward passes. Thus Harvard threw
four complete forward passes for total
gain OF sixty-five yards against Yale's
completed one pass for gain OF fifteen
yards. The length of these passes Is
given from the point thrown and not
from the line OF scrimmage.

LAFAYETTE CRUSHES
LEHIGH ONCE MORE
For Third Year in Succession
Eastonians Triumph
Score Is 23 to 6.

Special Despatch 20 THE NEW NoRK HERALD.
BETHLEHEM, Pa. Nov. Nearly 25,-
0oo persons saw Lafayette defeat Lchigh
at football in the Taylor Stadium this
afternoon, 2S to 6. II was the third
year in succession that Lafayette was
the victor. Lafayette had TO fight hard
for every gain. Twice Lchigh held the
victors for downs. and never was Lehgh
forced to surrender the ball in similar
manner.
However. Lafayette's big. wrecking
backfield was much in evidence. Brun-
ner. Elliott and Gazella ripped off big
gains almost every time they tried. While
in the main straight football was played,
Brennan frequently threw neat for
ward pass, and one. a thirty yard heave
to Berry in the fourth period, led to the
last score.
Lehigh did not make a first down on
straight football. but managed to com
plete couple of forward passes. One
resulted in the only Lehigh score in the
third period. After Storer had passed
to Bessemcr for a thirty-five yard gain
and plunges took the ball to the 10 yard
line, Storer threw a short pass to Rote.

The day was almost too warm for
football. Very little rumbling resulted,
all being recovered by the side making

penalties. Lafayette being the worst suf-
ferers Lafayette intercepted several of
Lehich's forward passes.
After the opening kickoff penalty
against Lafayette forced Brennan TO

punt a minute later and then from its

I<icIscrs Rely on Wind.

The number of kicks in this game. IL
by Harvard and II by Yale, are unusual.
1t is rare for team to punt more
than eight times throughout a game
The large number in this game Is due TO
the strong wind. of which both teams
took advantage. Another unusual
feature in the game was the frequent at
tempts of Buell. OF Harvard and
O'Hearn of Yale TO score field goals from
great distances by drop kicks.
OEiearn on one occasion attempted 10
kick goal at a distance of ffty-fve
yards. His drop kick travelled the full
distance, but passed to the left of tie
post.
For those who from the cold figures
in the detailed analysis may think that
Yale was stronger than Harvard. let It
be said that Harvard scored in this
battle a second touchdown of which

Gale Has Wide Effect.

Nature furnished a powerful factor to
the con,batants in this game. That was
a strong gale from tho south that blew
squarely from goal post to goal post.
At the outset of the game Capt. Aldrich
of Yale signalled a return of Yale luck
by correctly calling against Harvard, as
he did against Princeton. the toss Of the
coin. To-day he chose the south goal
and thus gained as an ally this strong
wind.
Although Brown of Harvard sent the
initial kickoff sixty yards against this
wind, Aldrich adopted the kicking at
tack. and instantly sent a booming punt
sixty yards down the field over the heads
of the Crimson backs. twelve yards more
along the sward and across Harvard's
goal line.
This strategic manpuvre placed Har-
ward on the defensive on the fifth play
in the first quarter and similar kicks by
Aldrich kept Harvard's back to its goal
line until the close OF the quarter when
Yale scored. In the second quarter the
wind became the ally of Harvard. and
Yale throughout the period was largely
on the defensive.
