YALEMTOES FOOTBALL CLASSIC Crimson Eleven Triumphs Over Mncieni nivais Betore 50, OOP Spectators f Cambridge, Mass., Nor. 82 Harvard today defeated Tale in their annual football elassie. PUyiug before 80,000 spectators ia the itadiom which was crowded ai never before, the Crimson eleven triumphed, 10 to 8. The fame, marked by several striking plays was the eliinax of the first football season at Harvard under the new coaching re gime of Bobert T. Fisher. It was the art time in twenty rear that a tale team had gone down to defeat in its two games with Princeton and Harvard. In a Mason of advanced development ef the forward pass and the field as weapons of football attack, today's game stands out with notable instances of, each. Spectators will long remem ber the field goal kicked by Braden for Vale's only score in the last period. The ball carried 63 yards with a 25-mile wind through the center of the Harvard goal, after Braden had booted It with bis line bending under a strong Crim sea attack. Scarcely less notable was Casey's touchdown for Harvard, gained in the second period, through the surprise accomplishment of a forward pass. The Harvard star, catching a pass thrown IS yards by Quarterback Felton. from Yale's 22 yard line to the goal. '..HaiKf; JU::nhr qiilities--f luslieness and speed to avert overtaking by the Yale pursuers, Kenipton and Bernhardt. The Crimson's touchdown was com pleted by a goal kicked by Ralph Hor ween. The latter in the first period had sent Harvard ahead with a Held goal booted from the 40 yard line. Harvard's baekfield men, as repre sented by Casey and E. Horween, fur nished the punches which registered Crimson victory. The Crimson line supplied a defense which, under men ace of a Blue touchdown in the third period, held fast six inches from its goal and robbed Yale of a tie and of the ball. - . It was virtually the -only sustained show of strength by Yale in the gsAe. Starting from a 20 yard run back of a punt by Kempton, the Blue forced the ball almost from midfleld for 45 yards to the brink of the Crimson goal with the tactics of "barnyard football," Braden and Neville breaking through the line. Three first downs were ' scored. It seemed that the Blue eould not be stopped, but the word went down the Harvard line "They shall not DBSS." Within the five yard tone, Yale made four rushes. A yard was gained on each of the first two, and then the Crimson forwards brseed. They held fast on the brink of the goal and Yale was thrust back with six inches to go fot a touchdown. Except for Braden's overhead attack, Xala did not menace again. ". At three other stages of the game Harvard's lino held Yale for downs. The Bine team was its own greatest enemy today. It fumblea irequenuy. Four times the. ball, headed for the Harvard goal, was lost to Yale and turned against the Bluea by fumbles in the Yale baekfield. On fohr other occasions Yale players lost the ball, but their errors were retrieved by fellow players. Men who have followed foot ball for years said there had never been so much faulty handling of the hall in any other big gams. , Harvard (! Tale () Position. Left End. Desmond Bernhardt Left Tackle.

FIRST CONTEST IN" PAST THREE YEARS Carolina and Virginia Meet Thursday For First Time On Tar Heel Gridiron Chapel Hill, Nov. 22. When the Uni versities of North Carolina and Virginia meet ia football at Chapel Hill Thanks giving day for the1 first game between the two universities to be played in this State, it will be the twenty-fourth time they have met in the series that has be come the classic of the South Atlantic States. The first two games were ia 1892, which is the only year in which there have been two games, but five times no gams has been played, in 1899 and 1906 because of eligibility differences, in 1909 because Archer Christian, a Virginia halfback, was killed in the Georgetown game, and ia 1917 and 1918 because of the war. From almost the beginning of the series Virginia has had the edge in victories, and of the twenty-three games she has turned in seventeen victories. In 1902 the score was a tie, 12 to 12, and five times the Tar Heels have brought home the bacon. The total score gives Virginia 413 points to 113 for Carolina.

Nearly All In Richmond. With two exceptions, every one nf these games has been played in Rich mond. Carolina's 26 to 8 victory in 1898 was an exhibition game played in Atlanta, and her 17 to 0 victory in 1903 was in Norfolk. In every other year Tar Heel supporters have made their annual pilgrimage to Richmond, but now by agrvmeent between the two uni versities the games wil be played be fore ths student bodies of thetwo insti tutions, one year at Chapel Hill and the next at Charlottesville. ' For ths first big game at Chapel Hill there is every prospect of the largest erowd that ever saw a football contest in this State. The flood of applications for tickets which has been pouring into the office of Graduate . Manager Woollen includes many of the well-known Carolina olnV' era of other days, notable among them being such recent captains as George Tanay, wave xayioe. Bob Winston, O. C Garrett, Foy Boberson. and Roach Stewart. Several members of the first team that ever played Virginia have asked for reservations, Including Wal ter Murphy, or Salisbury, and Dr. W. N. Gibbs. of New Bern. That team of 1892 is considered by many Carolinians to be the best that ever represented tho Uni versity. In its first gams against Vir ginia it lost, 18 to 30, but it won over Richmond College, 40 to 0, and ever Trinity, 24 to 0. It then took a South ern trip and played three games ia ons week, winning all of them without making a single substitution, boating Auburn 64 to 0, Vanderbilt 24 to 0, and finally Virginia 26 to 0. Other mem bers 'of that team were Dr. i Michael Hoke,6fAtlaata7 aptainTJudga Craw ford Biggs, Judge W. A. bavin, former Mayor A. S. Barnard, of Asheville; J. T. Pugh, G. R. Little, E. M. Snipes, James Kirkpstrick, and 8haw, a famous fullback. Dr. Charles Baskerville, now of the faculty of tho College of the City of New York, was manager. Carolina's victory in 1898, by the score of 6 to 2, was due to a brilliant ran by Vernon Howell,' now dean of the School of Pharmacy at the Univer sity. Ths 1903 victory, 16 to 0, was won by "Bully" Jones' team, which In eluded Jacocks, Sprnnt Newton, Mann, Foy Boberson, Fount, Albert Cos, and Roach Stewart, lu iw Hoy Abernatny, Max Gardner, Bomy Story, Brown, and Foy Boberson, ware conspicuous players, and ia 1916 Folger s long run won Met GEORGETOWN GETS" COVETED VICTORY Washington &Lee With Goal Line Uncrossed This Season Proved Easy Prey : Washington, Nov. 22. Georgetown University furnished another surprise ia this season of football surprises by crushing the Washington and Lee team on ths hilltop here today 87 to 0. The victory gave the Blue and Grey eleven ths South Atlantle championship and left all Southern honors a more mooted question than ever. Fresh from its victory over Georgia Teeh.i which defeated Georgetown 28 to 0 last, Saturday and with its goal line uncrossed this season, Washington and Lee entered the game a two to one favorite, but it never had a eha;. a. The Virginians seemed unable to fathom in the shifting attark of the Hilltoppers, who scored a touchdown in each period, and escaped a shutout only through a blocked kick which Captain Bethel con verted into a touchdown after a run of 20 yards. , At no other time was Georgetown's goal line seriously threatened and with one or two exceptions the Lexington team was ever on the defensive. Oc casionally it showed flashes of. tbe power that " enabled it to defeat Georgia s golden tornado, 3 to 0, but its gaining never was consistent and necessarily its game largely was a punting one. Georgetown, like Washington and Lee, was without the services of its star, but Flavin, a substitute, ably filled Cap tain McQuade'a place. In fact, his re markable end running was the out standing feature of the game and the HiiltoDDers' attack was built around hir.i. He never had the honor of carrying the ball over, but his long end runs put bis team in a position to score. The game attracted one of the largest crowds that has gathered on the Hilltop since the davs when the University of Virginia's team made an annual visit to Washington and the sentiment of the erowd seemed almost evenly divided. Seated en the field with the Lex!ugton team were Secretary of the Treasury Carter Glass, Senator Swan: on of Vir ginia, 8enator Chamberlain, of Oregon, and other government officials. Washington and Lee got away to a bad start, Bight End Maddox fumbling the klckoff, and Georgetown recovering. Later Maloney missed a field goal and Washington and Lee punted out of danger, but Coach Exendine's charges were not to be denied, and after Flavin had circled le,f t. end for 25 yards Ma loney picked Bp a forward pass from Flavin out of the air a:.d dashed across the goal line. There was never any question of the result after that. The Hilltoppers opened a smashing attack on tho line and ends that steadily Football Summary Soathern. FloriA 13; Booth Carolina, 0.
