YALE IS SEEKING
To END GRID
MONOPOLY
Harvard Has Won Seven Out
of Eight Games in Foot
ball Series.

Harvard has beaten Yale at foot
ball in seven out Of the last eight
games played Little wonder Yale
men are clamoring for a change In
what has come to be almost the ac-
cepted order of-things. Since 1912
the football atmosphere at New
Haven has been largely Crimson.
After suffering four defeats in a
row Tad Jones brought about a re-
generation in 1916 and Yale Won by
a score of to 3. No games were
played in 1917 and 1918 because of
the war. but since 1919 Harvard has
again ruled in three straight VIC
tories.
The defeat last year by a score Of
10 to was the harder TO bear be-
cause the Blue was a pronounced IA
vorite, following the victory over
Princeton. which had beaten Har-
ward. Now comes the eve Of another
struggle and Yale hopes run high.
When one considers that Harvard
had been punished as few colleges
have been punished in football In the
long stretch of years preceding 1912,
those who can find 1t possible to be
absolutely neutral where these two
ancient rivals are concerned look on
those last seven victories of the Grim.

age.
The record shows that over a
stretch Of thirty years up to 1912,
Yale had enjoyed a monopoly by
winning twenty.three games to only
three for Harvard, with four tie.
Yale men. however, are not so
much concerned with what happened
before 1912. Their thoughts are for
what has happened since that year.

On the showing made by Iale
against< the scrappy Tigers team
experts are going to pick Jones
lads TO win. s far as all-arornd
play was concerned, the Ellis showed
to better advantage than did the
Crimson player.
The Blue team gained almost
twice the amount of ground against
Princeton that Harvard did. Their
defense held up better In the
pinches. Princeton tailed touch
down and goal from field against
Harvard.
Against Yale the Orange and
Black team was held to single
goal, from the field. This indicates
superiority on the part Of the Ellis.
Harvard and Yale fell down
where experts thought they would
show up strongest. The quarter
back honors in both clashes went
to a Tiger field general.
Buell. was expected to outslriae.
any man that Roper could start
against him. An injury early In
the game robbed Buell. OF his Op.
portunity to star.
Neidlinger was counted upon to
add strength to his team with su-
perior brain work. Ropers players
again took the honors.
The Orange and Black field gen.
erals took the spotlight away from
their Yale rivals at all times. 1t
was generalship that helped to
win for Princeton.
It may be that Buell. will come
through on Saturday. II he plays
up to his form of last season he
will give Yale plenty Of trouble In
keeping pace with him.
The turn of the game Is likely
20 rest on this important Job. Buell.
Is Harvard's final ace card. II he
is PLAYED at the wrong time the
Crimson's hopes for victory Will be
lost.
Yale has a much superior line to
Harvard. Miller, Cruikshank, Love
10y, Cross and Diller are veterans
of real worth. Cross Is about the
best guard in the East. Cruikshank
is a close running mate. Diller Is
q first class tackle.
The, injury to Grew IN the
Brown game took away some Har.
ward strength IN the first line Of
defense. Grew was steady
guard Of the Harvard type.
His place goes to Kunhardt. a
CAPABLE substitute. bunker Is an
other Crimson star who Is not In
the best Of physical condition. He
is sure to play hard, but cannot
hone to last the entire game. Clark
IA a fine center. Eastman is play
ing we'll at tackle.
However, on the whole It would
appear as II Harvard did not have
the same quality of linemen as
Jones will be able to use. This lie
going to give the New Haven team
n decided advantage.
