  HARVARD The VICTOR GETS SWEET REVENGE UPON HER OLD ENEMY. YALE DEFEATED 22 TO 0. THE CRIMSON WAVED IN JOY THROUGHOUT. the Play of Harvard Was Remark able Throughout-Three Touch downs Made by the Winners, Each of Which Melted “a GoaI-Harvard’s Team Intact ut the Close While Yale Was Badly CripDIed-The Playing Was Clean But the De- feated Players Are Very Sore. Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 23.-Vengeance never sweeter and victory new er more decisive came to Harvard this afternoon when her eleven defeat ed Yale % to 0. Three touch-downs, two of which were converted into goals, and a goal from the field of a brilliant execution, were HarYard,sportion. For Yale there was nothing but whitewash. The Harvard men required about five minutes in which to start their superb football machincry. After that Yale was never in the playing. In scrimmage tactics, line plunging, punting and drop kicking. the Yale men were completely out classed. The Harvard players gave also a demonstration of uniform play that was remarkable, and as a result the colors of the crimson waved in Joy during the greater portion of the two hours occupied by the contest. Thirty-six thousand spectators, a greater number than ever before gath cred at a football game, watched the battle from the mammoth stands. Three-quarters of the enormous crowd cheered Harvard, while 1900 sympathizers tried to encourage the over whelmed wearers of the blue. Harvard presented team, the personnet of which was unchanged from start to finish, and the players who won glory for the crimson, were al most as full of dash when the referees whistle sounded for the last time as they were when it sounded for the opening kickoff. Yale, on the other hand, required sixteen men to meet the onslaught of the Harvard plung ers. Panic came to Yale and sympathy | went to i ale from the Harvard thou | sands when the crack quarterback, | DeSaulles, as a result Of a flying tackle. which prevented another Harvard | score. was hurt. A blow on the head | made him unconscious. Later it h. came necessary to remove him from the field on stretcher. AS the game | progressed Weymouth, Chadwick and | Gould were compelled to retire in favor of substitutes. A CIeverIy Played Game. The game was as cleanly played as any ever witnessed on this field. Not one instance of smuggling or unnecessary roughness was visible. Three penalties were imposed by Umpire Nc Chung and Harvard from the over anxiety of her players thrice lost ten yards of distance for holding, off-side play, and interference. Harvard scored seventeen of her points in the first half. In the second half Harvard resorted to more punting. Yale played much better football in the second half. and Harvard had to be satisfied with touchdown which failed or a goal. Harvard, after the first five min utes of the game, had possession OF the ball the greater part of the time. Her goal line was really never in dan ger. Once in the first half Yale land ed the ball on Harvards 20-yard line. where Harvard forced DeSaulles to try for a goal from the field. He failed In the second half Yale, by the fiercest play, reached the enemy’s 9-yard line, only to lose the ball on downs. The crimson’s weightier line and faster back field worked out the touch down the second half, but Cults could not make the goal against the wind. In the Locker building, after the game, Harvard’s players were all in the highest spirits. Not a man was seriously injured Kernan’s weak an kle was strained a little and Cults hurt his knee slightly, but the rest of the men showed no effects beyond few scratches and black eyes. Yale Badly Broken Up. The Yale team was very respondent and took their defeat hard. There were many who limped badly. De- Saulles was the worst injured. He was kicked on the head and it was thought at first that he had conclusion of the brain. The Harvard students. after their celebration at the field marched through the square and around the college yard, cheering and singing. Red fire was burned on every side and fire. works were set off. Finally the men started for Boston to finish their DEM onstration. The lineup follows: Harvard. Position. Yale.
