Any back in the world could have fumbled the treacherously slipoery ball on the rain-soaked gridiron that was the Bowl today, but It was an unhappy Fate for Harvard that iCrickard. iU chief attacking hope. had to lose the ball when and where he did. A few minutes before a superb punt by Johnny Dean- had pushed Yale back to its 13 yard line, but Parker kicked out of Immediate danger and on tlte first play thereafter, the ball popped out of Crickard's muddy fingers. Big Clare Cur--t'n, the Yale tackle, fell on the ball 45 yards from the Crimson goal line.

That fumble and recovery did not. at the moment, seem immediately vital. But two plays later it most certainly did. Ken-mlnded Pat Sullivan decided that it was time for Yale to show its hand. He sent, one running play into the line and then struck without further loss of time.

Almost before anyone in the crowd grasned the play, surely before the Harvard defenders knew what was coming. Dud Parker was blazing down field and Bob Lassiter cut loose a whistling forward pass, the same sort of "on the line" shot with which Harvard had humiliated the Ella in li29, and 1030. That, na.ss gave Yale a first down on Harvard's 18 and it proved a dart. hat was like a death blow to tne Johnnies. lvrriiu Bulls Over.

A touchdown and an extra point In the first seven minutes whipped Harvard sure as shooting, not so much because the Casey men folded up but becau.se an already poised Yale team had tasted victory ami was not to be denied. It would have taken a great Harvard team to come buck and Harvard falls considerably short of being a great football team, Yet Harvard's goose was not completely cooked until after the second tierlod had been played.

Early In this quarter Dean had kicked 'A yards from the line of scrimmage, Lassiter making a daring, perhaps a foolish catch of the slippery ball on his own three yard line. After Parker had returned the kick, Harvard started from the Yale 38 yard line and pounded to a first down on Yale's 15 before a staunch Eli defense piled up two running plavs and batted down two forward passes. Last Straw Comes Later. That was tough for Harvard, bur the straw that broke the camel'j back came later In this same second period. Once more Harvard's superior kicking game, a kicking game that was perhaps as good as any in the country on this Saturdtv afternoon, out the Casey eleven In a commanding position.

Jack Crickards' quick kick caught Yale fast a.sleeti. The ball bounded back to the Blue six yard line, where Barto of Harvard downed the ball. Parker kicked back and Crickard atoned for his earlier fumble by-running back 27 yards to Yale's 18 yard line. Three cracks at the tine by Crickard gave Harvard first down five yards from the Ell end zone. A tie score, or at least six points, seemed certain.

A driving rain beat down on tne ll youngsters slogging through miniature lakes and mua that came to their ankles, scarcely able to distinguish friend from foe.

First Oregon State, beaten only by the 1924 Nebraska team In eigiit years of inter-sectional conflict, got the break that led to the opening score. Early In the first quarter Ed Danoskl, Fordham's crack punter fumbled trying to kick a Dig skin that must have felt like a medicine ball against a solid sheet of driving rain. He got the ball back, but not until It had rolled to his two yard line. There he kicked again, a marvelous effort under the conditions, reaching out to his own 45 yard line. Immediately Oregon State launched its sole sustained drive of the day, and gained a touchdown.

Fordham rallied then, starting late In the first period, continuinr on through the second, until in eighty yard drive wound up with Andy Pavilcovic, a back-field substitute, plugging through guard for the last two yards and tying points.
