the Mohawks and Northern Celtics
clash in the South Atlantic Foot

semi-pro gridirons, will be the David"
The clash will start at 2:30 o'clock.
The unexpected landslide over the
champion Apaches by the score OF 81 TO
3 last Sunday will make the Northern
Celtics big favorites over the Hawks
today. A decisive victory for the Gel
tics. barring a flock of injuries, would
leave only the Irvingtons Of Baltimore
between them and the league cham
pionship.
Four unlimited class games will head
line today's foot ball program in the
Capital City League. One Of the best

CRIMSON TOPPLES
TEXAS STEERS, SET
Orchard, Wood Leaders OF
Fine Attack That Scores
in Each Quarter.
BY BILL KING,

Associated Press Sports Writer.
q TADIUM, Cambridge, Mass,
october 24.-The Harvard
- Tornado struck the Texas
Steers today and stampedeo
them for 35-7 intersectional
victory.
A Crimson whirlwind in the per-
son Of Halfback Jack Orchard
smashed and battered the Lone
Star tackles for three touchdowns
and Barry Wood, Harvard's sharp
shooting captain, paved the way
for the other pair of scores with
his deadly forward passing.
Texas fought with all the wild fury
of a fear -crazed herd, but Wood, out.
standing quarterback Of the year, played
the invaders as II they were an
accordion. He pushed them out with
aerial threats to enable Orchard to
tear through their tackles and pulled
them in when he found q situation
that called for q pass.
Harvard not only generated tremen-
dous power for its runninf game, but
also had enough defensive force to
crush all but one of the Texas adj
vances. The Crimson players were
caught of guard in the third period,
when Howard Clewis. substitute fun
back, ran SIS yards for the lone Texas
touchdown after receiving q lateral
from Jimmy Burr. who took the nat
pass that Ronald Pagan, quarterback
replacement tossed over center.
After this, the Steers attempted sew
eral times to work this forward-lateraI
combination, but the Harvard forwards
were on to the play and held It for
slight gains.
Steers Air Attack Checked.
The Wanted Texas overhead game
met with the same fate so efaciently
did the Harvard secondaries operate
during the few moments they were not
rushing the ball.
The first Harvard score took less
than three minutes and resulted from
a 60-yard march, Crickafd and Jack
Schereschewsky banging the tackles all
the way. Later Harvard intercepted Q
pass and put on q 60.yard scoring
drive, Orchard doing most Of the gain
ing. A pass, Wood to Orchard, nut
the ball on Texas 20-yard mark and
Orchard rounded his right end for his
second score
He crossed the enemy goal line for
the third time in the second period
after he and Schereschewsky plolighed
through the tackles. 80
Harvard scored again In the third
period. Mays made 20 yards at left
tackle. then is more about his right
end and Schereschewsky plowed over.
Weed Passes TO Touchdown.
The final Crimson tally came early In
the final period, when Wood whipped q
pass over center which Dean, in for
White. caught in the end zone
Wood topped on his wonderful ex-
hibition OF passing by kicking three Of
the extra points and running the end
for the fourth after getting low pass
from center. Mays kicked the point
after Harvard's final touchdown.
Harvard piled up 81 first downs 20
10 for Texas. The Crimson's running
game earned 367 yards, and its I'VE good
passes raised the yardage total TO 452.
Texas made but 90 yards running the
ball and completed Is out Of 13 passes
for an ADDITIONAL gainage OF l95 yards.
