The University soccer team, tied with Yale for the cellar position in the League race, on Saturday gave the championship contending Haverford eleven a great battle before yielding to the Pennsylvanians by the close score of 1-0.

This Saturday, Haverford meets the University of Pennsylvania booters, and should the Blue and Red lose, Haverford will be tied for the championship honors with Princeton. In this event a play-off, Princeton against Haverford, will be in order and should provide thrills as the two teams have already battled to a no-decision match.

Haviland Makes Lone Score

Saturday's only score came in the third quarter when Haviland, center halfback, finally put one past R. H. Thomas; Jr. '27, for a score. The visitor's attack was far stronger throughout the game than that of the Cambridge eleven, and it was only the sterling net-guarding of the Crimson tender that kept the ball out of the Harvard cage on numerous occasions. J. A. MacKinnon '27 was also a bulwark on the defense, and cleared several threatening situations with long hoists down the field.

K. B. Crooks '27, and N. R. Danielian '28, were the University's chief scoring threats, while Evans, Haverford captain, and Logan were the outstanding visiting performers.

The line-up: Harvard  Haverford Thomas, g.  g., Marshall Tarnowsky, r.f.b.  r.f.b., Evans Phaneuf, l.f.b.  l.f.b., Logan MacKinnon, r.h.b.  r.h.b., Wood Wickersham, c.h.b.  c.h.b., Haviland Parrott, l.h.b.  l.h.b., Haines Gans, o.r.  o.r., Richie Danielian, Small, i.r.  i.r., Baker Trevvett, c.f.  c.f., Saunders Keefe, Crooks, i.l.  i.l., Richardson Driggs, o.l.  o.l., Borton
