Harvard Defeats Michigan in
Game Almost Devoid of
Spectacular Play.
(By Associated Press.)
CAMBro?DGE, ?lass., Oct. 31.-Har
vard defeated Michigan 7 to 0 here to
day in a football game almost devoid
of spectacular play and confined to
conservative attack and defense.
Twenty-five thousand spectators wit
nessed 60 minutes of hard fought
scrimmage In which straight football
predominated throughout. The gener
al advance was achieved by a series
of line plunges and an occasional end
run.
Harvard showed to better advantage
tnan the westerners, displaying
stronger defence and striking with
savage rapidity and skill in the second
period when thc solitary score of the
game waa made.
Michigan attempted only one for
ward pass and this was intercepted.
As if further to upset the ante-game
forecasts, the Crimson used four, of
which three were successfully car
ried through.
Michigan 'used a rushing line of at
tack. The campaign worked well be
tween the 20-yard lines but lt lacked
the scoring punch once the team had
carried the ball within the shadow of
the Crimson goal. Harvard twice
held Michigan on or inside her five
yard line.
Harvard f-. ced a touchdown and
the resultant goal in the second per
iod. Obtaining the ball at mid-field on
a Michigan punt; Harvard opened the
scoring advance with a series of line
plunges and end runs, piercing the
Wolverines' line for consistent gains.
On Michigan's 35-yard line the wes
tern eleven held for two downs. Tem
porarily checked, Quarterback Logan
called for a forward pass, which, per
fectly executed, put the ball on the
visitor's 19-yard line. Again Harvard
went to line bucking and by clever
ly mixing covered and delayed passes
made the scoring of the touchdown
and goal comparatively easy.
With a seven point advantage the
Harvard team played a defensive game
during a majority of the remaining
periods.
It was in the finer points of team
play that Michigan lost, for, player
for player, the Ann Arbor eleven was
fully equal physically to the Cam
bridge combination. Collectively,
however, they failed to move with thc
same cohesion and smoothness.
/ Statistical figures show that while
Michigan made ten first downs toi
Harvard's eight, the Crimson gained
183 yards by rushing to the Wolver
ine::' I Ci. iuuTwi? K uineii 2? ya TOB
with four forward passes, while Mich
igan's single attempt caused a loss
of the ball. In penalties th Ann Ar
bor team lost SO ya-ds to K&?vard'fc
20. The victors also punted the ball
43Q yards to the losers' 365 yards and
ran the ball back to punts 20 yards
to five.
North Carolina Again Victorious.

ment Carolina's line was heavier

when one touchdown and a safety
were scored, the second touchdown
being made in the last quarter.
