well-known wolf on the fold. 1t will
be a ravenous team which meets
Breckenridge High across the chalk
marks.
Monday afternoon Coach Tim will
personally escort every member of
his team out to st. Mary's College for
practice. When practice is over they
will make their pallets in the St.
Mary's dormitory.
Very few temptations are offered

Nary a bright light to gladden. the

Each day until Thanksgiving, the

the front steps, awaiting a date
that never comes.

Both elevens have pointed their en-

Coach Bobby Cannon's Bracken-
ridge eleven, by reason of the crush

has displayed in eight games played
this season. has been established the
favorite. The Eagles. with world of

of 1872 points to six for their oppOn-

that time, seemed to be in class by

scores on almost every one of their
opponents, while Main had displayed
little of anything, either on offense or
defense.
But how Tim GrieSenbecli has driv-

Austin High and Houston Heights i'll

lightly by any opposition.

TURNED BACK OFTEN

Shortly before the drama Of the
closing minutes, the Yale team had
marched to within three yards OF
Harvard's goal and once before that
had pounded down TO within six
yards, out each time they were driven
back.
A football outfit that has been
called the weakest Harvard has turned
out in many years, and that was ex-
pected to be fairly swamped this
afternoon, displayed a mighty spirit
when it had TO fight in the shadow
of its own posts.
But as the drama and excitement
of the game must be written around
that little stretch of Harvard terri
tory when the Crimson fought its
fight. Outside of incidents that trans
pired there, it was a game to make
the experts fairly weep. 1t was made
up Of an exhibition of poor forward
passing, and Of fumbles that might
have caused a stranger to marvel
that Yale and Harvard are supposed
to be among the big Three"
The football gods must have de
cided that Harvard's gameness was
worth rewarding. They smiled on the
Crimson cause to the extent Of toss
ing Yale several little bad breaks in
the luck.
Once an attempt by Wadsworth OF
Yale, at a goal from placement, missed
by an inch.
PENALTY COSTLY
A penalty Of five yards for un-
necessarily delaying the game was i'm
posed on Yale in the fourth period
by the officials and that penalty
might have provided Yale with the
very little extra time it needed TO
score a touchdown in the closing min
utes of play.
However, a penalty for that cause
/ is more or less carelessnesS ON the
part Of team. Furthermore. Yale
displayed little of the form il has
| shown in other games this season.
It seemed oyerconfident. apparently
taking Harvard as a "soft mnrk." II
never pays for Yale 10 take Harvard
| that way as the history OF this, and
many other games, will show.

Main Avenue lost to Corpus

Main Avenue lost to Houston Cen

Thus, in the four games they have
played against the same teams, Brack-

didn't get into the game until the
final period, flipped a 30-yard for
ward pass to Bradley in the last five
minutes of play, and Bradley raced
TO the Harvard fiye-yard line before
he was downed.
Now the backs of Yale, Caldwell at
their peak, flung themselves against
the Crimson line in a desperate as
sault. The line gave in the center
ever so little but enough to cause a
groan in the Harvard stand.
Three minutes to play!
Again Caldwell was fairly flung at
the men in the flaming jerseys who
stood between him and the goal and
when the tangle of players unwound.
the ball rested within yard of the
goal.
There was a wild babble of voices
in the Yale stands but not much noise
from the Harvard side until suddenly
Il shrill whistle sounded, and the spec
tators realized that the game was
over.
Then the Harvard men boiled out
on the field TO surround their foot
ball players and to pound them on
their tired backs and tell them what
great men they were. The silence
that had wrapped the Harvard stand
during that last five minutes seemed
to have been transferred to the Yale
section, for Yale had come prepared
to slaughter Harvard to make a New
Haven holiday.
