YALE BEATS
CRIMSON 84)
Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 20.—Yale's
blue triumphed over Harvard's crim-
son in today's great football contest
by tlye score of 8 to 0.
Forty thousand people witnessed the
struggle between these two greatest
American teams, and the playing
throughout was so spectacular that
the vast crowd was a seething mass
of excitement from one end of the
game to the other.
The opening play was the kick of
Withington, of Harvard, to Lilley, of
Yale, who was downed on Yale's 35-
yard line. The Harvard men piled
into the down and when Lilley arose
he tinned to the side-line, out of the
game. Harvard was penalized 15 yards
for rough play and Lilley was replaced
by Paul.
Harvard did not gain through Lil-
ley *s successor, who played a hard,
fast game throughout the entire con-
test.
Yale rallied on the kicking of Cap-
tain Coy rather than on intricate
plays. Two field goals from the boot
of the redoubtable Coy and a safety
was the sum total of the scoring—
the kicking victory reminding such
veterans of the game as Walter Camp,
of the brilliant Wull whose goals used
to wrest victory from seeming defeat
for the Blue in bygone days. Indeed,
the game was strictly an old fashioned
one, neither side resorting to trick
p'ays.
Coy's punting was distinctly the fea-
ture, netting 715 yards from 23 downs

far the most exacting. It requires the
violent exercise of most of the muscles
or the body and taxes the heart and lungs
to the utmost. In a contest between ex-

endurance Is necessary to win, such as wi

reputation. It's a clean, scientific sport.
