Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—One of the grave dangers that exist in these traditional football battles —such as Yale and Harvard, for example—is that there is likely to be a great deal more traditional than football. This was the case the past week-end when 80,000 customers completely filled one of America’s most magnificent stadiums to watch two old rivals meet for the forty-seventh time in a game that had no importance at all in a championship sense. n n tt ON THE PART OP YALE THE CUSTOMERS SAW NO FOOTBALL TO SPEAK OP. THAT IS, IN A WAY, AND AS HARVARD ESTABLISHED ITS SUPERIORITY BEFORE THE GAME WAS MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES OLD THERE WASN'T A WHOLE LOT LEFT TO DO. BUT TALK OF TRADITIONS IN HUSHED ONES AND LET YOUR EYES FEAST ON THE CROWD SPECTACLE. tt tt tt And as every sports writer in the land has commented at one time or another there is no crowd spectacle to match that which unfolds in the bowl on the day Harvard plays Yale. It has a sweep and a movement that places it ahead of any other sports turn-out in the country, ahead of the derby, the world series, and even those spectacular two million dollar gates that patronize Tex Rickard’s battles of the century. tt tt tt IT was not easy to tell whether Harvard had a great team in this game or Yale a lamentably mediocre one. Certainly no supposedly major football team ever has looked more impotent and generally ineffective thai’ Yale did in losing to the crimson for the first time since 1922. An Army scout sat next to me in the press coop. There is a belief that both Yale and Harvard hold their ace plays up their sleeves until this game. The scout had come to see what these ace plays were, and to chart them for future study in the football laboratories at West Point. tt tt tt ABOUT ALL HE SAW WAS A TRICKV LATERAL PASS AND ITS CHECKS. MANIPULATED BY TWO HARVARD BACKS. WHICH REPEATEDLY FOOLED THE YALE DEFENDERS. TIME AFTER TIME THE PLAY WAS PULLED WITH GUARNACCIA 1 CARRYING THE BALL AND FRENCH RUNNING EITHER TO 'THE RIGHT OR THE LEFT OF HIM. ONE OF THE YALE ENDS WOULD COME SURGING IN, DIRECTING HIS TACKLING FURY AT GUARNACCLA. tt tt it There would be a grunt and a crushing sound as the two bodies collided. The Yale end would look up and find that he had tackled a man who didn’t have the ball, for just as the end made his dive Guarnaccia would toss the ball over his head into the hands of French and off that fleet-footed young man would go for a sizeable gain. tt a tt YALE had no defense for this play, and the longer they looked at It the more puzzling it seemed to become. This was one of the strange things about a strange Yale team. Generally Yale teams have alertness and adaptability. They showed none of it against Harvard. It was astonishing to see a Yale team that blinked and rubbed Its eyes at the enemy’s forward passing. In the past Yale has usually been strong at both ends of the passing game. A year ago a beautiful pass, strategically conceived, beat Princeton in the closing minutes of play. a tt AOAINST HARVARD SATURDAY YALE HANDLED THE PASS AS IF IT WERE A NEW SCORING DEVICE THAT HAD JUST COME INTO THE GAME AND AS IF THEY WERE EXPERIMENTING WITH IT FOR THE FIRST TIME. IT WAS ODD ALSO THAT THE LATERALS SHOULD PLAY SUCH A CONSPICUOUS PART IN HARVARD'S VICTORY. EARLY IN THE SEASON. AGAINST ARMY ESPECIALLY. HARVARD LOOKED THE PART OF THE WORLD'S WORST FORWARD PASSING COMBINATION. tt tt tt It is plain that Arnold Horween brought his men far in the stratagems of the play since late October. Those who were inclined to favor a Yale victory did so on the theory that Yale would outpass the Crimson and that Harvard had no consistent air attack. tt tt tt THE Yale line wa> outplayed, and Harvard cou'.d have won just as decisively with a running game as a throwing game. A year ago Yale had the best line in the east. Perhaps it was the best line in the country. This year the best you can say for it is that is fair. No team could play impressively without a good line. Harvard had a good line, which is one reason it stood out as a fine football team. tt tt tt A lot of people are beginning to wonder just how badly Myron Fuller is being missed at New Haven these days. Fuller was the line coach under Tad Jones.

Seven. Teams Compile 24 Wins in Out-of-Town Competition. S. H. S. CITY CHAMPirn Tech Has Fine Record cf State Victories. BY DICK MILLER Indianapolis high school football teams had a big season this fall. Never since the popular sport game was revived in the local schools ten years ago have the teams established such a splendid record. The seven schools played fortytwo contests with out-of-town teams. Os these games twenty-four were victories, eleven were losses and seven of the games ended in tie scores. Six contests were played with out-of-state clubs, but in each case the Hoosier boys were on the short end of the count. Crispus Attucks, Negro school, won two and lost one and tied one against out-01-state teams. In the city Shortridge is an undisputed champion. The Blue and White defeated Manual, Cathedral and Technical. Cathedral defeated Washington and Manual defeated Boys’ Prep. Shortridge lost to Stivers of Dayton, 0., Cathedral fell before St. Xavier of Louisville, Ky., and Boys' Prep was defeated by the Ohio Military Academy at Cincinnati. Crispus Attucks fell before Central of Louisville. In addition to gaining victories over out-of-town teams over the state, the locals did so by some powerful counts. Records show that in the forty-two ganftes the locals scored 661 points to opponents’ 242. Technical’s showing against state rivals was splendid. The east siders narrowly lost to South Bend, but defeated Ehvood, Linton, Muncie, Marion and Logansport and tied with Central of Evansville.
