...Haven at the same time, there was no complaint of diminished attendance at either. The crowds were enormous, and both games were inspiring, Yale won. After four successive and deplorable defeats, with not even a touchdown to brag about, Yale beat the confident Harvard team by a score of 6 to 3, upset all the betting calculations, and restored one of the universities' glories. Harvard can stand it, and everybody will be glad to have Yale back in the running...
...Yale team outplayed the University in the second half when the Crimson was making, a vain attempt to score, but in the first half both teams played equally well--or poorly--with the breaks going to Yale. The Blue eleven was the more consistently powerful organization throughout the game, but the Crimson was strong enough to hold its opponents at all times, had not luck occasionally interfered.

J. Murray '18's passes...
...Blue's 15 and pushing Yale back by outpunting her on an average of 26 to 40 yards. A fifteen-yard penalty for holding broke up this advance, but when R. Harto '17 recovered LaRoche's fumble of Horween's punt, the University had a chance to score.
