LIVE UPDATES: Pro-Palestine Protesters Begin Encampment in Harvard Yard
Playing under fine weather conditions at New Haven yesterday afternoon, the Eli and Crimson second football teams fought out a ragged line-plunging duel that ended 23 to 12 in favor of the Blue contingent.
The opening kickoff was fumbled by Yale and a Harvard recovery led to a 40-yard march down the field and a short plunge by T.G. Upton '31 over the line for a touchdown. Goal was missed. After this, the Eli scrubs rallied and forced at will through the Crimson line. They did not begin to score, however, until the second half when Cruikshank and Whiting started plunging through for big gains. The former scored in five minutes and kicked goal for the lead. The only other Crimson score came toward the conclusion of the game when G.L. Lewis '30 ran 25 yards for a touchdown, after a long run back of a kickoff.
The summary follows. Score--Yale, 23; Harvard, 12. Touchdowns--Cruikshank, Lewis, Upton, Whiting 2. Field Goals--Ludium. Goals--Cruikshank. Referee--Blettsworthy. Umpire--Packletide. Linesmen--Bungg and Backwash. Time--12 minute quarters.
