government to provide that none Of
the land ceded In the treaty Of 1884
could be sold except by the Six Ma

Harvard's defeat OF Centre by the
rather lopsided score OF "a TO 10
was rather unexpected. True. Har-
ward was favored to win, but not by
such a wide margin.
An analysis OF the game shows
that the two elevens were far more
evenly matched than the Score
makes It seem. Harvard scored q
points in the first period. In the
last three periods Centre made 10
points 10 three for Harvard.
: Unquestionably the victory Of
Harvard by such a big score was
made possible through the breaks,
rather than by so wide superiority
OF play. Poor judgment on the part
Of Centre may have brought about
the breaks that really decided the
outcome OF the game.
Harvard started the game by kick
ing OF 10 Centre and the ball went
over the goal line. Centre brought
the ball out and put It into play on
its 20-yard line. Right here oan1e
the break that decided the game.
Centre had no idea OF Harvard's
strength. To test It innide Of Cen
tre's 20-yard line certainly would
not be regarded as good football
The logical thing would have been
60 get the ball out Of danger betors
putting Harvard to the test.

would have been good football II
would have enabled little Centre 20
have gotten Il better line on big
