The practice in the Bowl this aft- ernoon was cut short by a drenching rain. Hodween, Flower and Minot punted to the backfield men and the |line charged down the fleld. Coach Haughton made a_wager with Robin- son that he could not score a drop kick from the muddy field, but the quarterback sent over two goals im succession, after wHich the Crimson mentor paid the bet and called further wagers off. The squad attended a_theatre night and retired early. Weather con- ditions permitting, a practice drill will ibe held at the baseball field here to- morrow. The rnainder of the squad is gxpected from Cpmbridge tomor- to- row: YALE HAS WIDE MARGIN OVER HARVARD. !Crimson Have Registered Only Nine Victories. Notwithstanding that a game {rom Harvard on the gridirsn since 1909, Yale has a wide margin on the Crimscn in the games played up to the present season. The teams since 1875 have played 36 games. Yale has been victorious in 22 starts, five were deadlocks and Harvard finished lon the long ena of the count nine times. Harvard hos won five times in New Haven, thres times on her own field and once in Springfield. = Yale has won seven sames at home, six times on HarvarTs field, five times in Springfleld, twice in Boston, and :ke same numb:r of times in New York. Two tie games were plaved in New Haven, two on Soldicrs’ field and one in the Stadwm.

Yale then started snother wild ram- page and ran up another string of vie- tories, winning four games in order. Harvard celebrated its third victory in, 22 years in 1901 on - Soldiers’ fieid, winning by the oronounced score. of 22 to 0. Yale resumed her winning habit in 1902 and continued until 1807 without a stop. In 1908 Harvard won, | next year, and a Yale won. Then the teams began to show a marked difference. ~Harvard loomed up as the stronger fve. Tie games were played in 1910 and 1911, and Harvard then copped four games in order, in- cluding last year's game, which was the longest run of victorles ever made by a Crimson eleven cver the Elis.
