HARVARD LEADS
lN GAMESO
Harvard and Yale have not quite
reached the stage of a fifteth an-
niversary in football because they
did not begin to play until 1875.
two years after Yale and Princeton
And become football rivals. The
ilftieth anniversary of football riv-
alry between the old growlsr and
the bass barker was celebrated in
the Bowl the other day. The lit.
tieth anniversary game between
Yale and Harvard will be ' adul-
ed in the ordinary course of things
beneath the classic columns of the
stadium at Cambridge. It Will be
the 1925 game which goes to the
Crimson by the right of rotation.
Harvard and Yale have not al-
ways played in harmony. Once
there was quite a rift. It Was the
celebrated case of Wrightington
and Hinkey that drove them apart.
There was so much talk about it
that the faculty at Harvard step-
ped in and forbade any more games
with the fellows dovm at New
Haven. For a year Yale men ‘and
Harvard men were cracking :okee
so fast about each other l~at it
seemed like a Chinese New Year's
celebration. Before it got over
pretty much everybody got in the
game and if a grocer's boy in Con-
necticut get mad at the butcher's
boy. he called him a "Harvard guy.“
That precipitated a‘riot on the ‘
corner. If a fisherman of Gloucesteri
lost a catch off his hook be abused
the. poor on: for being a "Yale riot; ‘
Both gotlover it after while and
settled down to hard battle on the
gridiron. , "
