WEST POINT, Oct 17. A touch-down scored by Harvard in the first half proved to be the deciding factor In the game here to-day. As It was the first contest this year in which two of the big elevens were pitted against each other, a crowd of more than 8,000 persona, many of whom were women, braved the dangers of a rain-soaked field exposed on all sides and an unsheltered grand stand, and most of them found th gam Interesting enough to remain Until its end. The game Itself wag practically featureless. The slippery field made Quick starting almost Impossible, and spoiled many a well-planned formation.

Fumbling, too, was very prevalent, but this was excusable when th condition of th ball was taken Into consideration. Neither eleven seemed to be able to keep tip a sustained attack, and both were weak on the defensive. Har vard's, ends were much mor ef fectlv la getting down tno field on punts, and, cons, cuently, the. West Point backs were rarely ahl to nin th ball back. On th other hand, th Harvard backs were able to get under way on more than one occasion, thereby.

According to Butterworth, the bid Tale player and the present director of football affairs at Northwestern University, th new ruls have not bad much effect so far, beyond causing soma trick 'plays. He contends that the new code help a light team, and Illustrates this by showing that ft high school eleven cored oa Northwestern in the flrtt game played by the Evans-ton team this season. The high school team was light and they could not possibly bay scored by line bucking.

Tet the first tiling the schoolboys did was to pasa the bait to the quarter back on a trick play and aoor. Whether th requirement of seven men on th Un la going to answer It purpose, Butterworth is not prepared to say. He think It 1 quit likely that the weight of the men will simply Increased to make up for the absence of men behind the line. If that rule does answer Its purpose, in the v. nw Wi, Iw.UlV'UrQ" yard seme ehould be reduced.
