REGULARS WIN OVER INELIGIBLES

For nearly an hour in yesterday's drizzling rain the University eleven battled with a strong team of ineligible players and won the decision by 15 to 6 count. The steady improvement that the first team has shown in the last few weeks further manifested itself in this first win of the season over the ineligible combination, which had previously toppled the regulars twice.

The attack of the scholastically black listed team was entirely composed of Princeton plays, and Captain Coady's eleven seemed to have little difficulty solving the Tiger offense as it was put on by a team which has been drilling on it for the past week. With the exception of a short forward pass from George Crawford '28 to G. W. Dean '28, which the latter converted into a touchdown by a 25-yard run, the ineligibles were never within striking distance of the University goal line.

J. N. Robinson '27 began the scoring for Coach Horween's warriors by scooping up a "Princeton" fumble on his own 40-yard line and scampering 60 yards for a score. No attempt was made to add the extra point after touchdown.

The ineligibles soon evened the count when, aided by an off-side penalty inflicted against the University team, Crawford tossed a short pass to Dean which resulted in a score.

University Launches Offensive

With the count deadlocked, the University outfit launched an offensive drive from its own 20-yard line only to have a forward pass intercepted at midfield. Failing to gain ground through the line, the ineligibles resorted to the overhead attack, but Gamache intercepted the ball and the University machine resumed its interrupted march forward which did not end until Sayles crashed through for a touchdown from the two-yard mark.

Miller was the outstanding star in this 50-yard advance, tearing through the strong ineligible line for good gains. Guarnaccia and Sayles also carried their share of the attack in whot was by far the best performance of the afternoon for the Harvard regulars.

Although the scrimmage had occupied the greater part of an hour, Coach Horween elected to keep his first string eleven intact, and once more the ineligibles were given the ball on their own 20-yard line. Two line plunges failed to dent the Crimson torward wall, and on the following play the Princeton backfield mixed its signals and the ball sailed over the goal-line, where Crawford overwhelmed by four Crimson linemen, managed to recover the pigskin. Two points were, however, added to the University total through the medium of a safety.

It was a powerful team which went under the name of Princeton in the scrimmage yesterday. Crowell was the only man in the ineligible line who had not earned his letter, and the backfield was a strong combination with J. P. Crosby '28, stellar halfback on the University team last year, as its outstanding star. Peter Baldwin. at the other halfback post, is an ineligible sophomore who is expected to make a strong bid for a regular berth next fall.

French was not in the scrimmage, but followed the practice from the sidelines, and is virtually sure to start Saturday's game at halfback. Dr. T. K. Richards '15, the Crimson's football physician, has declared that Bruon, substitute guard, will be the only player definitely out of the Tiger tilt
