HARVARD, 0; YALE, 0

Pumbles and Penalties Destroy Several Excellent Opportunities.

Second Half.

The second half opened with Morrison in Leslie's place and Wigglesworth back at quarter. Wendell ran back the kick-off 22 yards to the 33-yard line and after the next play, Harvard punted to Howe, who was downed on his 23-yard line by Smith after running back 7 yards. On good line plunging by Daly, Kistler and Field, Yale carried the ball just across the middle of the field, where Daly fumbled. Harvard punted at once and during the rest of the period Yale never had the ball in Harvard's territory. After Field had made first down on his 35-yard line, Howe punted across midfield to Wendell who ran to Yale's 44-yard line before being downed. After first down was made, Wigglesworth attempted a forward pass and the ball was intercepted by Howe on his 15-yard line. Two plays gained nothing and Howe punted to Corbett on Yale's 36-yard line. Here Campbell replaced Corbett and on the second play. Lewis tried a drop kick from the 34-yard line. This tell shot and Howe ran back to his 22-yard line. Yale made first down, but after that could not gain, so Howe kicked to Wigglesworth, who ran to midfield. A five-yard penalty was imposed on Harvard just before the time was called.

Fourth Period.

At the beginning of the fourth period, Corbett took Campbell's place. After the ball had been rushed from midfield to Yale's 36-yard line, Harvard kicked to Yale's 5-yard line. One the next play Howe kicked out of bounds on the 30-yard line, thus preventing Harvard from making a fair catch. From here Wendell's excellent line plunging carried the ball to Yale's 16-yard line. On the next play, on the 14-yard line, Corbett fumbled, Daly recovering the ball for Yale. Howe immediately kicked and for the rest of the game Yale forced the play back towards Harvard's goal and only once again did Harvard have the ball in Yale's territory. After Howe had kicked from the goal-line, Harvard could not gain, and Wigglesworth was thrown for a loss by Kilpatrick when he tried a forward pass. From her 48-yard line Yale kicked to Wigglesworth, and on the second play he made an excellent forward pass to Lewis which gained 25 yards. After two rushes had only made 3 yards, Minot punted to Howe, who was downed on his 32-yard line. P. Smith here replaced Perkins at centre. A series of punts and an unsuccessful onside kick gave Harvard the ball on her 24-yard line. Wigglesworth again tried a forward pass, but was thrown for a loss before he could make it. Gardner then took his place and Minot punted to Howe, who was downed on Harvard's 35-yard line. On the next play Daly tried a drop-kick, but it missed the bar by several yards, and after Harvard had rushed once from the 25-yard line, the game was over.
