and with the Blue desperate, looking
for forward passes and prepared to
break them up, Yale met with be-
lated success this style of attack.
My idea Of a brainy football team
Is one which will mix up its plays
as far as possible so as to give its
opponents the unexpected.
Game after game, Yale has stuck
to the driving in midfield, where
1t has shown gaining power, but,
when II came to the test of put
ting the ball over the line, it has
lacked the resourcefulness.
The deciding play Of the game
was Owens long run which re-
suited in the Harvard touchdown.
This followed a punt by Yale in the
first quarter against the wind. A
Harvard man in trying to take out
a Yale back got in the path of
the punt and was hit on the leg
with the ball, but, apparently, those
Yale men, with a chance to get 1t,
did not realize 1t was anybody's bali
then. Not Yale player tried for
the ball.
