! The Yale quarterback flashed and
dazzled against the Brown eleven be-
fore 10000 persons in the bowl this
afternoon. Thrice did he go streak
ing through the entire Brown team
for a touchdown. Thrice did Flash
score--and Yale scored only thrice

its crafty. elusive lumiuaries. Yale
has seen many an Eli football hero
rise to gargantuan stature in a Yale
triumph which was very much all his
own. But we doubt If Yale gridiron
annals bear a brighter page of indi-
vidual achievement than the one
which Neidlinger wrote into them un-
der the lowering skies in the twenty
eighth meeting with the Bears from
Providence.
