" Wezsted Efforts

light struck the leather brace there was
q CLEAN Of studded steel, and it was
against this introduction Of armor that
Yale lodged her protest.
After long and eloquent debate
Army officials were finally convinced
that the world at large had officially
gone in for reduction of armaments.
SO, bowling to the decision OF the late
Washington conference, Cadet Timber
lake somberly went over to the aide
lines and discarded some Of his equip
mcnt We couldn't see whether he
changed his shirt or whether a black
smith was called in to pull out the
steel rivets, or whatever it was that
first started Yale's protest. In any
event. Cadet Timberlake was cut down
to the proper quota for play.
Then again, late in the battle, Coach
Jones sent in the feet Dan Kelley to
replace at quarter Neidlniger, who had
done his job exceedingly well. On
about the second or third play, with
Army punted into his outstretched
arms on the Blues thirty yard line.
Here Kelley introduced an innovation.
He first started we'll over to the right.
Then he reversed his field and swung
thirty yards TO the left. Finding this
second exit we'll guarded he again
switched his line Of march to the right.
BY this time the Army defense was
almost completely winded chasing back
and forth. They were all waiting for
Kelley to make up his mind and go
one place or another. Finally, after
about seven tacklers had come within
half stride of throwing him for a
loss, Kelley decided to start forward
and this time he ran twenty yards be-
fore he was hauled to earth.
Yale Loses Last Chance
The concluding drama of the day
came just near the close. Yale was
then hammering the Army hard and
| threatening to score. On one play a
pass to Jordan on the Army thirty
yard line barely fipped from The Yale
captains fingers for tidy gain that
might have meant another score. But
the day was waning and only a few
precious moments were left. So "Tad"
Jones decided to send in the still Grip
pied O'Hearne for field goal shot.
The ball was then forty yards away
J from the Army goal, against heavy
wind, SO O'aearne wisely decided to
where his big toe might be better in
range. But his first pass was Inter
cepted by the elusive Smythe and this
killed off Yale's last chance for a score.
The fret half in the main showed
I little stuff by either team, but the ad-
vantage here belonged to the Army, who
at one time by fine forward passes took
the ball up near Yale's goal The Army
was threatening in the second. quarter
when the cadets made first down on
Yale's 14-yard line. But here the Yale
line held and Smythe's pass over the
goal line, only seven yards away was
grounded.
At the end of the frst two periods
Yals had made but twenty three yards
in rushes against the Army's twenty
five The Army, however, had gained
more ground by the passing route. It
was not until the second period that
Yale opened up her attack, while. at
the end of the game, the Bulldog had
made seven first downs to the Army's
Ave- Yale made four hrst downs by
rushes to the Army's two, showing the
terrific power Of both defenses. Each
team made three first downs over the
passing route, and it was this aerial
attack that led almost directly to both
scores. For neither team could gain
through two powerful defensive lines
that were charging hard and fast and
were not to be carried back by any
line attack.
Great Line Play the Feature
No greater line play he's ever feat
ured Yale-Army game. For the Army
Smythc and Wood were the leading
stars. Both figured in every Army at
tack For Yale the brilliant work Of
Neala was the star feature, as he did
most Of The kicking and most of the
running and most Of the passing. Mall
lory ard Neidlinger were only q Bit
behind, while Captain Jordan proved
to be the greatest line-breaker of the
day. S.
Yale, however, proved that she could
come through with modern football OF
first class quality, and SO her showing
to-day is the mort encouraging sign Of
the year for those who follow the Blue
banner The Bulldog tossed aside his
ancient weapons ard took the lead BY
"a first-class demonstration OF the mod
ern game, and this despite more than
his share Of crippled and injured stars.
So all in ali this renewal Of an old
classic was something that can bring
deep cheer to both camps, since both
fought with skill and courage to the
final play.
