HARVARD CRUSHES FIRST FOE, 66 TO 0 Using Simple Plays, Smooth Team Runs Rough-Shod Over Buffalo. ~ AMBRIDGE, Mass, october L. A smoothly working and SEEM ingly powerful Harvard foot ball machine opened its season today In impressive fashion with a 66-to-O triumph over the Buffalo team, which was battered and bruised a week ago by Cornell. Using nothing but simple power plays and passes from orthodox formations, the Harvard backs, regulars and reserves alike, skirted the ends and plowed through the line almost at will Coach Eddie Casey started his strong est combination, but before the first period had ended parade of substitutes began which saw virtually the entire squad in action before the contest ended The veteran Jack Orchard opened the scoring with two touchdowns early in the first quarter, and then was sup planted by John Grady, a substitute, who made two touchdowns on his own account in addition to several spectacular runs Buffalo, hopelessly outclassed, had two moments OF glory. once in the second period. when it stopped the Harvard attack on the 2-yard line, and again In the same period when a Harvard Drop kick was blocked and recovered by Bob Rich, who ran 40 yards before Harvard tacklerS brought him down.
