New HAVEN. Oct. 21.-Yale beat Will
Jams this afternoon 3S to 0. but there
is no bonfire on the Campus this eve
ming on the victory over the Massa-
chusetts men. Williams put forth a
light, weak team, not as good as. the
one that held Capt. Aldrich's men to
23 points last year, and was unable to
cope with the Eliss attack in running
UP 3S points.
Yale used some of her new spread
plays and varied the offense when in
side of the fifteen yard line, to an Mt
that was pleasing to the followers Of
the Blue, who have been accustomed
to see straight football all the way
over the 1Oo>yards of the Bowls turf.
The attack was ragged. however. and
the overhead passing game of the Blue
was worse williams was far better in
forward passing and tackled in man
ner that made the Yale men look like
beginners.
Nine Of every ten Yale tackles after
Bill Mallory ent out in the second nuar-
ter We're around the ears of the Will
iamstown men, peaver especially being
at fault In this department. Many a
Williams yard was gained because OF
the above, the neck grips of the Jones
pupils. Against team such as the
Army is going to throw against Yale
next Saturday such taclkling as shown
to-day, will be fatal.
There was very little in Yale's game
to-day that will warrant the belief that
the Blue team will be able to cope sue
cessfully with any first class eleven.
There were some flashes of offensive
speed by Capt. Jordan, Neale, Neid-
linger and Kelley. but when one takes
into consideration the defense the Ellis
we're UP against the value Of this at
tack Is nullifed. That the Yale men
have yet to learn the art of stopping
the forward pass was demonstrated to-
day.
Williams did fairly well and was sue
cessful In several attempts. In the final
minutes of play. with the ball at mid
field. Mallon shot pass to Cham r,
who shook off four wouid-be tack erS
lodged two more and finally broke TO
clear field for what looked like sure
touchdown. Hart, substitute end, was
the only man who sized up the situa-
tion for his team and he set sail for
Chandler II was a good race for thirty
yards, with Hart gaining at every stride
He overlook the Williams man in the
shadow of the Yale goal line and the
game ended with that play. 1t was the
best of the game for Williams.
NeaIe's Running Good.
Much. interest centered in the appear

Greasy" Neale OF the Cincinnati Reds
and the coach OF the Washington anL
Jefferson team Neale proved a feet
back and his end running was Yale's best
card. He was given better interference
than most Yale halfbacks have had dur
ing the past few years. Jordan also did
well in hitting the line and in plunges on
tackle. The Yale captain made touch

opened Jordan then circled Pease's end
for nine yards and another score. An
attack which the light Williams line
failed to Withstand pushed the visitors
back TO their yard line just before the
second uqarter opened. and Knapp, whc
had just gone In for Neale. wiggled Ms
way through the broken Williams line
for third score. The goals were easily
kicked by Neale.
Bud Adams took Neidlinger's place at
the start OF the second half and Scott
was in for Mallory. Adams played a
lively game and did { / of Yale's kick
ing, sometimes vel and sometimes
poorly. williams had some success In
the open game in this period and made
three first downs. Yale was unable to
do much against the Williams line for
more than half the period.
Cocbrane Make. Run.
Late in the quarter Knapp hurled
forward pass TO Cochrane. who. eaten
ing the ball on the dead run, got around
the williams right flank for twenty-five
yards 10 the IL yard line on the next
play Cochrane darted between Laws
and Pease for touchdown. Dan
Kelley added ten points to Yale's total
in the final period getting field goal
from the 80 yard line, touchdown on
an end run few moments later and
a goal from touchdown. II was when
the teams were battling In the center
OF the field that forward pass to
Chandler was pulled off and the run
for forty-two yards brought the spec
tators TO their feet. 1t was Williams
luck 10 have the game end with that
play Capt Boynton Monjo and Mallon
did the best work for Williams.
