DIRECT PRIVATE WIRES. i In ‘the closing days of the eastern football season the varsity eldvens reach the zenith of their power and for that reason play neaver to their true form than is the case in the early weeks of the fall. That the full ex- tent of this form and strefigth is not always vealized by the average fol- lower of the game is demonstrated in | the contests of Saturday. While there were Do upsets, such as marked the preliminary games of the vear, there Were surprises which tool the shape of startling one-sided “scores rolled up in the process of defeating a rival com- bjnation credited with the ability to niold any team in reasonable check. Yale Met with Crushing Defeat. The annual Harvard-Yale game was a striking example, for the -Blue eleven, an almost even-money wager- ing proposition several days before the contest, went down to defeat by a score of 36 to 0. These figures, re- markably unbalanced as they are, indi- cate the real superiority of the’ Har- vard combination over its rivals from the New Haven university. In every department of play and generalship, considering the teams as units, Yale as completely outplayed by the, splendid football machine which Coach Perc. Haughton and his assistants built at Cambridge this autumn to represent the Crimson, While it is possible to single out individual players on the Eli squad who equalled in playing ability their Harvard rivals, there is no compari- son in the strength and tactics of the two combinations considered as teams. Bezinning at the very basic principles of the play and the ghme and proceed- ing step by step to the finished eleven, the Blue was outranked at every stage, Yale, both on the line and backfleld, was inferfor to Har d. The plan of attack and defense was wrongly ‘con- ceived for stopping a team using the Crimson gystem of advancing the ball and checking its opponents’ invasion. To complete the rout, the Blue had [little football intpition and ability to adapt itself gquickly to a situation which it had u anticipated Crimson's Attack Was Baffling.; Yale banked upon ‘its power to make its way through one of the strongest defenses of the season on eastern gridirons ; s of a loose-ball at- tack, alw ngerous method of offensive hese lateral and for- ward pas; o worked brilliantly and su at times_ but the se- quence broken, as st on intercepted p: es, fumbles or a stonewall defense just when a score appeared certai Hur jess spectacular, - consistent system of forward Dby- short runs, < and forward p > to offer in the way of a defense. b Hinkey was handicapped, to he . by pe of n forwards, but even these failed to shoy evidence of rudimentary foundation for the task set for them. The lme played high, were outcharged and easily baffled or drawn out of place by the Crimson's Ekilfully constructed attack. The backfleld, while it outshone the line, was not the equal of Harvard's. Le Gore and Knowles played brilliant individual football, but there was none of the valuable interference.and co- operation which marked every move of the Crimson.

Combination Like a Clock, ‘When the Cambridge combination held possession of the ball, the con- trast was striking. To begin with,<the play was never rushed and it moved with almost_clocklike precision. Evi- dence of perfect co-operation between line and backfield was always present. 1f the signal called for a line plunge, the hole was almost invariably open and there were players at hand to as- Sist the runmer. When the ends or tackles were attacked, the manner in which the Crimson interference brush- ed aside the opposing players was re- ‘markable. Nothing equalling it for sustained effort has been seen in the east since the Princeton team of 1896 defeated Yale 24 to 6. When there is added to these splendid football = attributes, a marked superiority in _kicking and generalship the strategy of a_super- type, the crushing defeat of Yale by Harvard is not as puszling as appears at_first sight. Much the same conditions prevailed in_ the Dartmouth-Syracuse game, wherein the Salt City eleven was over- whelmed, 40 to 0, by Coach Cava- naugh’s fast, heavy and well-balanted eleven, . \ 1f the football authorfties of the east desire to help the Red Cross war relief fund, they need only arrange a post-season game between Harvard and Dartmouth. Without Soing into any discussion of the possible out- come, the meeting of these two elevens it is safe to say thdt such a contest would draw thousands of spectators to the scene of the game and thousands of dollars to the relief fund.

A large gathi z of Yale’s star players of other days discussed the coaching question and the hope was expressed that Frank Hinkey would be invited to take charge again next year. The se- lection of a coach rests with the cap- tain of the team. The opinion was also held that Hinkey has laid the founda- tions of a sound system, but it will take a couple of years to perfect it Under Hinkey's guidance, Yale de- feated Princeton for the first time in several ‘vears. In the case of Har- vard, Yale men feel that the Crim- son had one of the greatest machines in modern football and that the' EH eleven, moulded largely from green material, suffered in consequence. Hin- key is one of the most popular coach- es in years and great confidence is placed by the students in his ability to ultimately turn out a winning team.

That thing happened in 1884, some 30 years ago, and until Saturday afternoon it stood as a record for matches between the Crimson and the Biue. In all the contests that had intervened there was always some sort of a match. Saturday afternoon at the dedication of the new stadium that they call the bowl, there was hardly the semblance of a fight. From the first to the last it was all Harvard, and when the final istle blew the score stood 36 to 0 in favor of the Crimson. the greatest tally that. the men from Cambridge had ever rolled up against the Blue. It was nothing but Harvard from al- most the first sound of the referee’s whistle and it seemed as if the men from Cambridge eould have donme a de: better if they had wanted. vidually and collectively the Yale m was stood on its ear.

Then came an- ether fumble and Yale was back to the 10-yard mark. There was only one more chance left and a forward pass was tried. This went awry and Har- vard got the ball on downs. Right op of this Watson ran forty yards before he stepped out of bounds .a few inches, else he would have added another touchdown tally. Charley Brickley was 'then called from the side lines and not only did the Harvard side stand up and cheer him, but the Yale side did the same. The' ball was on Yale's 15-yard line and naturallyg everyone thought he would try for @ drop kick. Someone had predicted that there would be a “fake” Kick 1t Brickley was sent into action and 50 it happened. The feint worked so successfully that Harvard gained a first.down on Yale's 5 yara ne. to the Crimson Yale appeared to zet a safety once when the ball was fumbled and went over the line, with a Harvard man fall- ing on it. Why it was not a safety few of the hig throng present could understand. Surely a Harvard man had touched the ball and had given it the impetus to go over the final chak still the officials ‘would not allow it. If looked to most of the critics as if Yale should have been credited with at least two points. not that it would have amounted to anything outside of the fact that it woudd have been a little balm to the devastation that was wrought in the dedication of the new bown.
