Now changing business conditions, and perhaps the accounting policies of a new Treasurer, have showed it advisable to return to the more conservative valuations of the pre-1930 period. In all this accounting legerdemain, there has been no change in real value which would not have taken place regardless of the mark-up in book value...

Yale had two real threats. Once when their ace runner Al Wilson broke away from all but Macdonald to make a first down on the Crimson 37-yard stripe, and again in the early part of the fourth period when a succession of runs and Anderson-Snavely passes put the pellet on Harvard's 21. On both occasions the Crimson rose and held, the second threat ending when Don Daughters, playing his top game of the year, smothered Anderson before he could get off on an end-zone heave...
