Along toward the end of the third quarter Freddy Church, running near midfield, made a fine gain and was dodging into a clear field when the ball, which he was carrying low, dropped out under hts arm and was pounced on by Russell, one of the Virginia backs, and a fellow who had been playing some fin football as a substitute. This happened on Harvards 45-yard line, and Virginia at once started a drive. First, Rinehart threw a short forward pass to Russell, who was felled by Arnold Horween just as he made the catch, a few yards ahead of the line of scrimmage.

Then Virginia was offside, but Rinehart came back with another pass and again to Russell, who raced for a first down on Harvards pass Intended for Russell, miscalculated the distance and made his long pass well beyond the limits of the end zone. Southerners Gain Little This was the only chance the visitors had during the game, and really Harvard had no other opportunity to test Its goal-line defense. Outside this rally of about 3S' yards, Virgin'a gained only about the same amount of ground during the rest of the game, and lost, perhaps, 20 yards by having plays thrown back. Harvard, as in earlier games, got away from the mark fast. After taking the kickoff- and gaining a first down in two plays, Capt Billy Murray, taking the ball in kickers position, broke away off his own right tackle and then, swerving off to the left, galloped along Try for Field Goal Poor In the second period Harvard was constantly threatening, but although making two approaches, was held up on the 32-yard line twice.

The score suggests a walkover, and the game was one, but whenever Harvard lapsed from its high-grade variety of play, the Virginians were keen to show they were awake. Virginia was constantly penalized for offgjde play, so full of snap and ginger was the team, but Although hopelessly beaten when the contest was nearly three-quarters along, and a 'break" provided them with a cbnnce to get a score, they as-railed Harvard with a fierceness that was most remarkable, considering the lettering they had received.

For the second score of the period Fred Church started things by racing from his own five-yard line after getting the kickoff, taking the hall to Virginias 45-yard line, from where only seven plays were needed to reach the 15-yard mark. Hamilton did some good gaining In this series, and Macomber made good 1 gains on an end around, to match a 1 similar advance earlier in the game by Desmond. It remained for Church to score the were at once offside and Harvard had a first down within 10 yards of the goal, there was a sudden letup, and the failure to keep on going resulted in the ball being lost on downs. Virginia did a good bit of defensive playing to stave Harvard off at this stage, but the Crimson came back after Rineharts boot down the field went to the Cambridge 45-vard line.

Murray made a 10-yard run back for a starter. Horween and Humphrey ripped off KVvard gains, with the long side to the right, landing the ball almost on Vir- ginias 22-yard line in a jiffy. Here the!

Murray's driving power at quarter was the real thing yesterday, and the Harvard leader certainly had a grip on his team, after that lapse down near the goal line in the opening period. Lockwood and Hubbard, newcomers on the line, gave a good account of themselves.

and Desmond showed that the fight between him and Steele for an end position is bv no means over. Ryan played good football and was verv much in the game. In the middle line both Clark and Woods showed a lot of power. Philbin. who replaced Have-meyer, was back on his game and center is another position which isnt settled yet.

The work of Horween was powerful and his backfield defense was clean cut. In all. it was a get-together game, and sponsible for the revelation of so much brilliant individual w-ork on the part of the men carrying the ball.

Desmond and a few others, who have been a little tender, did not fare any the worse for getting into the game. The Southern team, however, did not fare so well. Capt Ray. the Virginia quarterback, was hurt early in the game, and probably broke one of the small bones in his lower arm. There were some bad knees and ankles in the Chartottesville squad when it left Cambridge for home last night.

Percy Haurhton was a spectator In the stadium yesterday, and when asked what he thought about the game, said he thought it might rain Sunday. He added, however, that he thought that the right of Harvards line did a pretty fair Job against the Virginia left wing on attack. Another old Harvard coach on hand was Tommy Campbell of the It'll varsltr, who Is coaching North Carolina, which bu a came with Virginia. aoon. i the' game looked like the whirlwind romp in the Stadium four years ago when Eddie Mahan was in the game.
