ALL THREE SOCCER TEAMS LOSE TO YALE

New Haven, Conn.--Nov. 20. Falling before the scintillating attack of the Yale booters, Harvard's Varsity, Jayvee, and Freshman soccer teams went down to defeat here this afternoon.

In the Varsity game, Yale netted two goals in the first five minutes, thus putting the game on ice before the Crimson could recover. Final score was 3-0 with accurate position play on the part of the Elis during the rest of the encounter holding Harvard scoreless. The last tally of the game came in the second half. Although the Crimson managed to retain possession of the ball for about half the game, the Cambridge booters did not have the ability to match a superior Yale attack.

Captain Jim Wood, in his farewell to college soccer was the fastest, smartest man on the field, while other heady exhibitions were produced by Goalie Put Williams, halfback George Phillips, and forward Frank Harnden.

Not only did Yale win the Varsity game, but to make the Crimson downfall complete, the Eli jayvees trimmed Harvard 4-3, and the Bulldog cubs upset Harvard's freshmen 3-2.

In the Junior Varsity game, Harvard came close to victory when Harry Alexandre slipped two goals into the net in the early part of the game. Yale tied the count, and then Captain Cecil Arrowsmith, kept the Crimson in the running by tallying another goal. In the last period the Elis tied the score once more and then took the lead on a complicated series of passes which resulted in the final score.

In the Freshman clash Howard Mendel stole the show by accounting for both the Yardlings goals. However Yale was never headed in this game, and the out come was seldom in doubt.

The 1940 defeat was not unexpected in view of their season's record which included defeats by Exeter, Dartmouth's freshmen, and Andover.

Previously the Jayvees had lost to Fitchburg, New Bedford, and Bridge-water Teachers, while the Varsity has downed Amherst, Tufts, and lost to Princeton and Dartmouth. The Brown game resulted in a 1-1 draw.
