After six minutes were up, however, Smith took the ball from center, gave it to Austie Harding, who started around right end. All of the Crimson interference, except Bob Green and Tim Russell went to the right. To the right also went the Bengals, and they buried Harding under three tall tacklers.

Their Mountain is a great back, and center Casey is tough on defense. Remember, though, when your Harlow gets your team into the form it was in last year's Yale game, it will murder anybody, yes sir, even Pittsburg...
