Field ludre, Gillender. Pen. forward pass, he completely baffled and outwitted the enemy. He lurched ahead, wheeled through the scattered defense and, fleet as a whippet, ate up the chalk marks until he was buried beneath an avalanche ia Maroon at the eight-yard line of La- fayette. As the stand peopled with the cohorts of the Brown and White rocked in tumult and bedlam evoked by this dashing spurt and run they quickly turned into groans.

For the eagle-eyed referes had espied a vagrant upon the field, a nomad from the Lehigh substitutes who had no business, no mission, on the terrain at this moment. For some team coach, just as ths play started, sent in the substitute from under his blanket, and the youDgster, used to implicit obedience, failed to remain on the side lines as the play started. Consequently Lehigh had twelve men on the field, a palpable infraction of the rules. There was nothing left for such a vigilant official to do but to call back the piay, and, as ths second period ended a moment afterwards, one of Lehigh's golden moments went into an inglorious discard. lirjntily Such was the fortune that seemed to greet Lehigh all the afternoon.

Whenever there came a break, that instant the Brown and White seemed to suffer. But make no mistake. Lafayette's vigilance, her keenness in following ths play and the ball were utilized to ths fullest to seize upon such misfortunes And convert them into telling deeds for the Old Maroon. Lafayette entered the fray a great, an overwhelming favorite, but the warriors from Easton realized at every moment that there was a fighting band impeding their march, halting their strids and battling every instant of the con-, test. Lehigh was beaten, but disgraced she was not.

In fact, so stalwart was her fight, so powerful the sweep of her battle, that she thrice held ths Maroon when only a few yards separated Easton from another touchdown It was the dint of that noble battle, that powerful fighting spirit, that the Brown and Mnte took as a balm to her feelings, a surcease to her season of sorrow and sadness today. So much for that indomitable spirit that swayed every warrior who wore his Alma Mater's armor today As a football game the contest left much to be desired; as a spectacle it stood on Continued on 4th Page. 3d 4H rl 3 5 'St FIGHTING, The Lineup Tale Positions Harvard Gill left end Sayles Joss, Capt left tackle rindmer Sturhahm Left guard C.

They were about to eo ii-to formation again when Quirlev played the worst music that the Blues have heard this season on a whistle.

The puges of football history will be scanned in vain for record of a reversal of form paralleling the developments on Swarthmore's barred held as the two Quaker foemen battled for upremacy. The Garnet established a Jrecedent in this, the last game of a ong series brought to an end by the failure of the two institutions to agree on a date for next year. It was staggering. It was almost unbelievable that a football machine capable of outplaying an opponent in one period by a margin of 13 to 0, should so utterly collapse as to yield ten touchdowns jn the remaining 45 miriutes of play.

It did not seem possible that a team, outplayed and on the verge fcomplete panic, could rally to achieve an average of more than a point and a half a minute for three periods. Exceeded Penn's Total Yet that is just what the Garnet did yesterday as 10.000 stupefied specta tors saw the drama unfolded. That and more.

Jle ran back kicks and kick-offs for 28' yards more, forward-passed for 42 yards on nine attempts, and just two minutes before the game ended he hauled down a long Ohio pass on his own 20-yard line, and as 85,000 or more came up with a roar lie was on his way. These oo.OOO souls understood here, in the gathering shadows, that they were looking upon the last amateur run of a backfield star, whose ballyhoo has driven Dempsey and "Wills from the sporting pages. They were looking upon the final sprint of the galloping ghost, includ ing all the adjectives you can think of or find in the dictionary. Thrilling to the Last They were looking on the young col legian who for three years had been the most widely discussed athlete any college had eversent to a competition.

All through the afternoon this almost incredibly great crowd had seen him carry the ball on runs ranging from two to twenty-six yards, but now they saw him in the open, with none close, as he swung under way with the flawless rhythm that has helped to make him famous. There were deep shadows on the field now, but Number 77 still flamed as he crossed one chalk mark after another. For just one moment it looked as if he might get away, but after he had covered forty-two on this nnal return at least six Ohio tacklers swept upon him and forced him out of Dounds. And the 85,000 were satisfied at lsr They had seen the ghost, the phantom, me spectre, or wnat you will, gallop lightly over fast turf for nearly half the length of the field before the smear of many tacklers brought him to a halt.

Nov. 21 PROUDLY festooned and arrayed in the glint and glory of triumph, the Maroon and White banners of Easton waved victoriously from the ramparts of Taylor Stadium today as the gladiators of Lafayette accepted the surrender of Lehigh, 14 to 0, in the nnnual gridiron duel. Twenty thousand witnessed the gruelling battle between these arch, inveterate rivals, and friendly enemies, a battle crude in football but majestic in the fight which the under dog waged against his more powerful adversary. For the warriors of Easton the victory of her armored sons spelled the climax to a season smirched by one defeat, when a potent toe failed in its cunning against Washington and Jefferson, the one defeat that smears the pennons of proud old Lafayette today. But to Lehigh, dauntless ever, fighting always, it meant the moral triumph of an eleven that could rise from the ashes of a wrecked and anemic season like the T'hoenix of fabled immortality, a season touched by the sinister hand of death, but a season that might have seen Lehigh overwhelmed, but never humiliated, because of the unquenchable fighting fire and spirit with which she waged her losing struggle against her dearest foe today.

Maroon Gots Breaks Lafayette owes the victory that perched on her guerdons to those intangible things commonly known as the breaks of the game, that the alertness, speed and cunning of the victor converted into the touchdowns that were her vantnge when the final blast of the whistle terminated the warfare of the legions in moleskins. One blocked kick that came in the frst period bred a touchdown to the witner. A fumble that rolled and unced over the goal line to be seized by a vigilant Maroon warrior meant the other. But Dame Fortune in the sour face she turned toward Bethlehem today did not stop there with the buffet-ings she administered to fighting old Lehigh. Everywhere today where, a stout heart beats beneath the coat of an nlumnus that watched the gruelling, grinding battle, there is a pain at the mental lapse that came on the side lines that.

worked havoc with the Brown and White. 'Twas in the second quarter that this untoward break occurred, a break that sent Lehigh into the doldrums when she might have reached a peak of ecstacy. Bent backward under the batterings of the Maroon, she yielded 6tep by step until the ball was in her territory and close at hand loomed the goal posts. Suddenly a fumbling Lafayette back there were numerous of these today gave Lehigh a chance to pounce upon the ball like a hawk. Then came Hess, a majestic figure in the fight waged by Lehigh.

Stepping backward, as. if to COLLEGE GRID RESULTS Crimson, With Back io Wall, Baits Bulldog and Holds Blue Scoreless When Danger Menaces Captain Dolph Cheek, of Battling Cantabrigians, Saves Day With Two Thrilling Plays By JAMES C. ISAMINGER CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 21. YALE did a lot of knocking at the door this afternoon but could not beat Harvard, which by an audacious display of grit and defensive stamina, fought the Elis to a scoreless tie before 52,000 spectators in the imposing stadium here.

Neither side could tab a point and for the sixth time since the two universities have been competing on the football field since 1875 they ended their season's campaign with a drawn battle. The result was the second upset of Big Three football this year, and followed Princeton's surprising win the Bulldogs in New Haven last Saturday. Today the Yalesians were expected to atone for that defeat with a clean-cut victory over Harvard and the latter's ability to earn a deadlock was in the nature a Crimson triumph, which gave, a rosy finish to an otherwise drab and lean year. In the heart-pulsing fight this afternoon Yale had more chances to score than but the latter always took on new spirit and new strength whenever their goal was menaced. Its recuperative powers were superb.

It was a soul-stirring football drama, with the climax reserved for the very act of the game. That was when Referee Ernest Quigley, also a National League baseball umpire, blew his whistle the game, with Yale in possession of the oval only three paltry yards away from a touchdown and victory. The Elis could not whip either the Crimson Father Time this afternoon, and their late rush went for naught when the precious minutes left for play were exhausted before the Bulldogs could save the afternoon by making a score. Cheek Prevents Score Yale was put in a scoring position late in this half period when a real air coup, after repeated failures, was engineered. Bunnell, of Yale, threw a forward pass to Bradley, the Blue end rush, and the latter excited the emotions of the great Yale cheering sections bv a baseball catch and running tiiirtr-five yards to Harvard's 5-yard Harvard 0, YaleO.
