In a moment more, when Yale secured the ball on downs, the blue waved and the crimson was still. Butterworth made a poor kick which netted only twenty yards. Harvard carried it right straight back.

The first charge counted for ten yards. The second and third, however, advanced the hall but little.

It was Yale's ball at the 30 yard line. A kick by Butterworth changed matters enentirely. It was Harvard's on the 30 yard line.

Here a short rush ended the first half.

In the first half the wind told largely in Yale's favor and the ball was in Harvard's territory a good share of the time.

Butterworth kicked well but never with Butterwoath's success. The aggressive work of the Harvard eleven was superb. Time and time again this new system of Harvard in mass plays worked with wonderful effect.

The defensive work was also decidedly stronger than Yales. Harvard repeatedly held the Yale back and repeatedly gained the ball on four downs.

The individual playing was almost beyond criticism.

Eacn man filled his position with fine judgment.

Harvard's gains aggregated more than Yale's, the line was quicker in breaking through, and the tackling was new and hard.

On the other hand Yale did not do so well as was expected, she showed weakness by repeated kicking. Though the ball was repeatedly in Harvard's territory a goal was never seriously threatened.

Yale's mass playas did not work very well. Her aggressive was far weaker than her defense. Her worst faults were in fumbling and off side play.

This was due to Harvard's new tricks. Individually, Hinkey and Murphy did the best work. Green way also followed the ball well. Butterworth did the best of any of the backs.

Thorne was better an tackling than running. Armstrong did not show any particular abilities. Adee tackled well and passed fairly well. Beard at right tackle tackled well, but showed too much nervousness.

It was owing to Beard's off side play with that of Hickok that two or three times lost Yale 5 yards. Yale played all around with less confidence and less precision than Harvard.
