Coach Young Pays Tribute to Yale -fc yyfc Ty? A RED AND BLUE ELEVEN FOR FIRST TIME IN HISTORY BEATS YALE S- A jR 5V yrffr NEW HAVEN, Oct. 17. Jsr f-y A GREAT Yale team lost COLGATE and Lafayt-tto still rp- main undefeated, a (JO-minute lat- tie on a mud--overed Kranklin Field ending in a 7-to-7 deadlock yes- terday afternoon. The pecta- tors who braved the weather to turn out and see thee undefeated rivals clash witnessed one of the hardest and most thrilling jranies played on Franklin Field this season. An all-nijiht ruin and heavy showers in the morning had made Franklin Field a miniature sea which hindered the run- nin of the hacks and made fumbling a frequent occurrence.

After the ball had become water soaked and mud caked, the puntinir was pour, although to a great Penn y.v if Yale's First Score Open to Question NEW HAVEN, Oct. 17. From the press coop it did not look as if Yale went over for a touchdown the first time she crossed the Penn goal line. It looked as if the play it was on the fourth down had been stopped inches away from the chalk mark. So certain were many of the spectators that the ball had not crossed that the Penn men gave a mighty cheer, as the Yale eleven huddled around and finally went over, throwing their arms in the air.

Of course, the officials were in a position to see the play more clearly than the writers, but it was noticed that when, the mass separated the ball rested squarely against the chalk mark on the field side of the line. Tryon uncovered some good kicking the early minutes. Al KrueZy Charley Rogers and Stan Sicracki Play Stellar Roles in Downfall of Bulldogs; Yale Stages Great Rally in Final Half, But Quakers Early Lead Saves Day and Turns Back Elis This was the manner in which Lou Young, head coach of the victorious Pennsylvanians. summed up today's triumph over the Blue. "It was a clean, splendid game," he continued.

"A game in which both elevens showed splendid fighting powers, wonderful football, and while we are glad we have won we want everybody to know that we feel Tad Jones has a wonderful Yale team." On upper left can be seen Al Kruez, Penn's great line bucker, getting off a long punt against the Elis. On right is Charley Rogers, the Red and Blue Comet, starting off on one of his many ground gaining runs for the Quakers. A part of the great crowd can also be seen in this picture. Lower left is Bunnell of Yale with ball tucked under arm trying to get around Penn's end. It was the line, all-ruiind playing of Eddie Tryon.

Hewitt Supplies Punch The Army! laeks were fast and "Tiny" Hewitt, who went into the game after it-had started, was a tremendous help to them with his line plunging.

It was he who put the into 'the Army offense at a time wher it was making little headway. From then on the Army attack was more cohesive and w'ent with more a hero's vole today. Towering above them all was a squat, bald-headed juggernaut, who battered Yale into helplessness and drew the fangs of the Bulldog. He was Al Kruez, full-back of the victorious host, and his labor today was adorned by a personal glory that others might share, but none could jeopardize. It was Kruez who rent the line asunder and tore apart the foe as Penn marched on and on up that scarred grass to victory.

It was Kruez who held the legions of Jones impotent, as his valiant toe by vigorous punt robbed Yale of the terrain that her rushes had It was Kruez who splintered the forward defense, time and again, as Penn galloped over the sward to those beckoning touchdowns. Kruez, it was. whose mighty foot spat forth that field goal that clinched triumph and chained defeat. It was Kruez, majestic on the offense, whose tackles time and again smeared the Blue warrior ere he could get past the line of scrimmage. It was Kruez who was here, there everywhere, a sinister man in lied and blue who seemed to rise before the Bulldog, whenever he squatted for a spring, or leaped for the throat of his rival.

In all -the measure of effort he has given to his Alma Mater, in all the golden splendor of his labors, as gladiator for Old Penn, Kruez has never risen to the heights to which he climbed today. To Yale he spelled the difference between victory and defeat. To Penn he was superman, whose deeds were as golden dreams come true. But Kruez. majestic as he performed his feats, could not have beaten the foemen singlehanded.

There was Hogers, frail slender, but unbreakable, who abetted Albert in every sortie, who had checkmated Yale often when some prowling back escaped tlfe primary defense, and was set for that goal line ahead. Iiogers, too, was the lad who bore down the field 3," yards after receiving a punt, and then tossed a forward pass for 2 more that led Penn forward to its second score.

Navy Aerial Attack Saves Game Navy by its adroit aerial coup late in the game saved itself from defeat but it couldn't beat the Tigers who for three quarters of the battle were in complete mastery. Picked to lose, they surprised the touchdown. Navy was on the road to a touchdown and had the ball on Princeton's 14-yard the wide-awake Danny Caulkins intercepted the last leg of a triple pass and before anybody knew it lie was dusting toward the Navy goal line.

WHILE Pennsylvania will not meat Yale at football next year, Ernest B. Cozens, graduate manager of athletics at the University of Pennsylvania, said at a big rally here last night on the eve of the Yale-Penn game that the two teams probably would meet again in 1927. Mr. Cozens asserted that the athletic authorities at Pennsylvania had almost "definite assu.ance" that Penn will be on the 1927 Yale schedule.
