The University basketball team was defeated last evening in a rough game with Yale by the score of 25 to 4. This is not only the second defeat by Yale this year but also the last game of an unsuccessful season.

Throughout the game the playing was poor, neither team being able to pass or shoot with any accuracy. The University team was especially poor in throwing baskets. Webber in the first half making the only goal from the floor. The Yale defence was strong and prevented any further scoring.

The game was fairly close at the outset, and the first half ended with the score 12 to 3 in favor of Yale. In the second period Harvard was unable to break through Yale's defence scoring but one goal from a foul. Van Vleck profited by the many fouls called on the University team and threw seven baskets, while Currie made only two. Cushman and Van Vleck were conspicuous and Currie did the best work for Harvard.
