Gilman took Henry’s kickoff on Harwards 25-yard line and ran it back fifteen yards, where Mahan got Off punt to Browns 20-yard line. When Harvard took the ball on its own 45-yard line from a punt another march to the goal line was 4, utn na1 tah nf “a p ward was penalized fifteen yards for hold ing. Brickley a few minutes later made a fairly good try for field goal from the 4S-yard line.

  BULLETINS SPECIAL YALE LETTER Confidence of Victory From Harvard Pervades University Dean Brown Points Out Changes-More Than Ever Earn Their Way Through College. New Haven, Nov. 20-”Three years ago Yale defeated Princeton and tied Harvard. This year Tale has tied Princeton and will beat Harvard .’‘ This prediction by Fred Daly, cap- tain of the Yale eleven that “came back in 1910, after a season almost as wavering as this has been, was made at a tremendous mass meeting last night And it expresses the sentiment and the spirit that all un- dergraduate Yale feels. It was given vent in a meeting of the greatest en- enthusiasm in the baseball cage last night, and again at the New Haven station this afternoon, when the stu dent body marched down and cheered for 20 minutes with wonderful out burst the team that left at 1.50 o’clock for Auburndale, Mass, to remain there until the day of the game. Captain Ketcham was given an un- precedented ovation in the baseball cage Wednesday night. When the stalWart leader of the Blue. eleven entered the mass of students broke into a roar of cheering that lasted for a dozen minutes and was only stopped when the cheer leaders got into action and ripped out a long cheer for the man who heads one of the stubboTnest fighting teams that Yale has had in many long year, and it came back last Saturday, fought back Princeton and clearly out-played the Tigers be- cause the Tale spirit and the support of the university is behind it as be- hind no other team of recent years. It’s the spirit with which the eleven will enter the Stadium Saturday aft ernoon, and it will be enhanced by another weeks progress in wedding together and injecting speed into the ta 9 Sf Sa r1Ia Tad n 9ea that every Yale man was proud of It was a game which Yale well deserved to win and missed by the narroWest kind of a margin. A few inches in either of Guernsey’s drop kicks would have told a different story. That will be told at Cambridge Saturday. Captain ketohan would not predict a victory on Saturday, but no Yale team has ever had more loyal sup port, he said, “and whether we win or whether we lose, that team is going we are going to do better than last Saturday” Coach Jones spoke very briefly, but what he said was to the point. T do believe in my heart that this Yale team will give every ounce that is in them in the game on Sat urday and if it is in the team physical ly, we are going to win We have a Coach Bomeister ssaid: There is not going to be any individual star Saturday, but every Yale man is going to pick his Harvard man and that brings success” And better than a new spirit con fined solely to football, is the spirit that is showing itself in the other de- partments of the life of the college and university Captain Ketcham re- ferred to it Wednesday night, when he said that he had never known such an awakening at Yale and not alone in athletics but in other things. In the last few years, over organization has been a criticism directed at un- dergraduate life in New Haven. bring ing loss of the spontaneity that used to be, according to tradition, a part of the old college life The healthy vigorous spirit of democracy that in the old days was distinctive of Yale was being lost graduates and others close to the situation feared. And probably their suspicious have not been unfounded and the new condi- dons of life have brought about
