The Yale football team defeated Syracuse Saturday afternoon at New Haven by the score of 51 to 0. Practically all through the game Yale's light, quick eleven outplayed the heavy Syracuse team by resorting to an open kicking game, for great gains were made on short kicks Yale men recovering the ball. Although the Syracuse eleven seemed to get off their plays with fair speed, Yale's strong secondary defence repeatedly stopped them before the necessary ten yards could be gained. T. Jones made several long runs, one the entire length of the field, carrying the ball from a kick-off over the line for a touchdown.
Twenty-one men played on the Yale team which lined up as follows: Congdon, Overall, l.e.; Forbes, l.t.; Brides, Hockenberger, l.g.; Dunbar, Gillis, c.; Levine Erwin, r.g.; Foster, Bigelow, r.t.; Piggott, Alcott, r.e.; Dines, Jones, q.b.; Linn, Know, l.h.; Veeder, Morse, r.h.; Stuart, Roome, f.b.
