HARVARD STADIUM, CAMBRIDGE, Mass., November 19.—Harvard a game that was not won until the last whistle blew. Yale held the slight scoring advantage of a field goal until the final period, but weakened and tired the Crimson runners charged across the Blue goal line for a touchdown and enough points to win. Yale made a desperate of Tiring Elis Near Close of Hard Battle, battered her way to a victory over Yale today in the last period of the sons of John Harvard were not to be denied and as the Yale stars rally, but could not press the attack home and Harvard added three more points by a field goal shortly It was a hard, & bitterly fought game throughout, and the wind, which was blowing stralght down the field, had much to do with the tide of battle in the earlier stages. Yale went to the front in the first period. ard was gradually forced down the fleld, Aldrich, who was doing the Yale punting, having the wind at his back. Yale gained on every exohange of punts and Aldrich soon was in a ition for a try at goal. It failed, t line plunges and a beautiful run by the Yale captaln and a succession of gains through the Harvard line apeedily regained the lost ground. The red touchdown was not forthcom- however, as Harvard stiffened. Yale captain dropped back and 2 over a field goal for. the first score. It was well done, the ball go- ing squarely between the posts. Harvard Threatens in Second. Tn the second period Harvard soon had Yale in an awkward position. As the wind had bothered Harvard in the first fifteen minutes of play, it was now alding them, adding yards to every kick. Harvard was waiting for an opportunity to heel for a fair catch on a short kick by Yale. Soon the chance came, for Aldrich could not drive the baii far enough from his own goal line to put his team out of danger. The Crimson had an oppor- tunity to tie the score, but the try at soal_went to the left of the posts and the Yale crowd heaved a great sigh of relief. But they were not over their trou- - bles. Soon another opportunity came 10 Harvard, but it was less favorable, as the ball was heeled much farther ! away. Still, with the wind behind the kicker, it looked worth trying. After a hurried discussion as to whether to kick or scrimmage they chose to kick, but the try was low and short and Yale had another respite and was in the lead by three points when time was called at the end of the half. It must be confessed, however, that the Yale sympathizers, coaches and old players did not look forward to the ‘third period, when Yale would still have to face the wind, with any sense of security. It was true the Blue had held Harvard's attempts at run- ning pretty effectively. Jordan and Aldrich had been doing some fair ground-gaining on their own acoount, but the team with/ the wind at ite back had a great advantage, When the third period began, how- ever, Yale, to the delight of her parti- sans and the anxiety of the Harvard stands, began a whirlwind running at- tack. They soon had the ball out of their own danger zone and advanced it into Harvard territory. The Blue stands began to yell for a touchdown, and_that_seemed a possibility, even against the wind, for Yale was keep- ing the ball and gaining first downs through the Harvard line with dis- concerting regularity. Harvard be- gan to fight more desperitely as they tell back nearer their goal line. Aldrich, who had been called upon for many precious yards, seemed tir- ing and was getting a lot of battert ing. Jordan continued for a time to crack the Harvard line for.gains, but even a human battering ram has a limit, and the attack began to fade. Even then, with the ball well in Harvard territory, it loked as if the Crimson would be held until the end of the period, when Yale woul again have the blessed wind at her back. The Yale stand thought and the Har- vard stands feared that this would be the case and that Yale would score again. Baell Turns the Tide. T however, came a sudden Kkaleidoscopic change. all because of a magnificent run back of a kick by Quarterback Buell, who caught the ball in-his own danger zone and dodged the Yale ends. Before the re- mainder of the Yale team seemed to sense the situation and thé menace he had veered to his right, and behind superb _interference was fairly flying over the white 5-yard lines on his Way to the Yale goal. It loked as if Buell, all by himself. now that he was clear. would make a touchdown. and the Yale stands gasped in horror. ' But O'Hearn, the Yale quarter, brought him down by a splendid tackle and stalled off disaster for . time. That run, the longest of the day. was the turning point of the game. moment before confident at th> were smashing the Harvard suddenly brought up stand- tine, were ing with a chill down their spines at finding Marvard right under their zoal posts, They fousght ( but after resumption of fourth quarter Harvard or a_touchds Tead But that fighting Yale teagm had a meback under the Blue Jerseys. arting immediately on receiving the Varvard kick-off with a long run and following this with dashes by Ald- rich and Jordén, t t_themselves on the Harvard rd line and seemed on the way to a certain touchdown. Then something went wrong, Aldrich was stopped. Then 2 signal was given for a forward pass to left end, but as Aldrich poised 1o throw there was no receiver there and he had to_hold the ball for a 10-yard loss. Then came the final disaster. A forward pass intended for the same end was intercepted by Chapman, who came near getting a clear ficld. He was brought down by O'Hearn, but only after galning a third the length of the field. Final Blow to Yale's Hopes. This was the final blow to Yale's hopes. Although they fought like men, they saw their chances ending, While Harvard with growing confi- dence did their best ground gaining of the day. They romped over the tiring Yale line, put over a field goal and barely missed through a penalty adding another touchdow When the whistle blew, Harvard, who had been defeated by Princeton, had defeated Yale, the conquerors of the Tigers. So there you have the championship all tangled up in a tie. The star performers for Harvard € were Owen and Buell: fér Yale, Ald- rich, Jordan and O'Hearn. The forward passing was ineffec- tive. netting Yale a terrible loss and not resulting in startling gains for Harvard. This was somewhat the fault of the wind. The team with the wind against it, always was so far down in its own territory that a forward pass whs dangerous to try and the team having the wind at its back hardly needed to try a pass ex- cept up near the goal line. before time was called.

Resort to Passing Game. The muddy field, covered with water a foot deep in some places, made it impoesible for the players to get a foothold, and both elevens resorted to desperate forward-passing at- tempts. The mud proved too great a handicap here also, and few of the heaves were successful. The best pass of the day came in the first four minute8 of play and brought the Hawkeyes their first score.

Two bouts were the mos: captured | by any one member of the Yankee team, the feat being accomplished by Russell and Sergt. J. W. Dimond, of the mounted service school of Leaven- worth, Kans. The cavalryman took part in the Jast two rounds and hand- ily disposed of his opponents. His poise under attack and quick re- coveries bettered the performance of any of his teammates, and when he acored over his man in the conclud- ing bout of the program Dimond was generously applauded. Russell was a participant in the two boutts that ended with double touches. Against Captain T. H.} Wand-Tetley, Russell fenced cau- tiously,. but the Englishman was equally wary and countercd quickly when, after & minute of fencing, Rus- «oll lunged. The judges cunferred with director Ridley Martin several | minutes before it was decided that a double touch had been madc. In hix following hout with Major Robert Vrater, Russell sought to despatch hix opponent in short order und lunged desperately after fifteen seconds of | parrying. But Frater returned the attack and each scored a touch. Pair of Britons Win Three. ‘Wand-Tetley and Frater were the mainstays of the British team. Each scored three victories, the former tri- umphing over Maj. Francis W. Honey- cutt, captain of the Americans; Henry Breckenridge and Maj Robert Sears. Fraser's victims were Breckenridge, Sears and Arthur 8. Lyon, touched in successive bouts. England’s other points were gained by G. M. Bu who vanquished C. R. McPherson and on. ’Englnm‘l drew first blood, when Frater, after fifty seconds of dueling, seruck under Honeycutt's right arm. In the next bout, America evened the score with Russell’s win over J. Blake. The bout. went on two minutes hefore one of the judges called & halt and after considerable discussion it was decided that Blake E: lishman sent the point of his sword against Sears’ left arm. Thereafter, the British never were caught by the Americans. Frater, in six seconds, hit Breckenridge In the last clash of the second round, and Burt opened the third round with a well deserved victory over Lyon. Following Russell's bout with Wand- Tetley that ended with honors even, Frater scored his third successive victory for England in a duel withj Sears.” Judges halted the match after four seconds of fencing. but cculd not agree upon a touch and the bout pro- ceeded three seconds more before the can. Dimond Starts n Rally. Dimond then went into the fray and started an American rally. He fenced with Lieut. R. E. Coles for a minute, then counted a touch against the Bri- ton's right shoulder. Wand-Tetley de- feated Lyon and Russell and Frater went through the second match, re- sulting in a doube touch before Breck- enridge again brought victory to America. The veteran swordsman pinked Blake after twenty-seven sec- onds of action and Dimond, in a ff- teen-second bout with Burt. gave his team its sixth and final point. Summary of the Bout.
