By William teamB seldom furablo H' has something In reserve to years Yale elevens developed through mldfleld, but (ailed miserably the goal line. It was this dlffcronco In umph over an admittedly stronger opponent In tho Bowl, Harvard had two good scoring opportunities am. scored on both. Valo bad numerous chances, but tho onty scoring weapon was O'Hoarn's toe, which was none too accurate. This season's Yale team will go- - tiown In football history as one of the unluckiest combinations that ever wore the Blue. The Bulldog lost to lows, Princeton, Harvard and tied the Army. In these four feature games tho Yale team never managed to get everything working correctly at the eame time. When the rushing of- fense was strong tho forward pass- ing missed. Luck novcr once emllcd on that husky Blue squad., Poor tackling was tho fatal weak-nes- s In Saturday's battle with the Crimson. The Blue players appeared to have forgotten one of the chief fundamentals In football. It was this weakness that made Owen's brilliant run possible. With a fifty-mil- e gale blowing down the field H \a? apparent the rival kickers would play a deciding role in the struggle. Two minutes after t ho In starting whl6tle O'Heurn, ugalnet 'he iin wind, sent a pretty punt Ino Hur. yard's territory. Spinning down to earth the pigskin hit a Crimson phycr nnd bounded directly to Owen, ten yards away. Quick as a flash tho Crimson star scooped up the ball and beaded for the Yale goal line. Racing over the chalk lines with tho power of a runaway truck, Owen twisted himself out of the clutches of at least eight expectant tacklcrs. In the backfleld, O'Hearn madu a desper- - nto drive and missed badly. Ilulmnn, eprlntlng across field, nailed Owen cn the 4 -- yard line after the Crimson Mar completed a brilliant run of 16 valu ablo yards. PROPER TACKLING WOULD HAVE STOPPED OWEN. Had the Blue warriors tackled properly Owen never would have gone far. The YsJo team Just seemed to Mag Owen as ho thundered by. With xho ball wllhln easy, scoring rang- - Harvard tried two smashes, but found the Blue line strong and unyielding. Capt. Bucll rushed In to toko chareo at this stage, and on the next play gave the ball to Owen, who crashed through tackle, and never stopped until the goal line was reached. Owen also kicked the goal. After this disastrous start tho Hull-do- g rallied and soon threatened their opponent's goal. Hammond fumbled tho klckoff and Yale recovered. On delayed line bucks the Blue worked tho ball to the line and then ran out of gas. At this critical tlmo Yalo never made use of a neat aerial attack that In the closing fifteen min- utes of the game gained half the l.ngth of the field. Lino plunges were ordered and the Crimson line threw them hack. With one clianco remain- ing, O'Hearn's uttcmpt for an easy field goal missed nnd thus went tho lilue's best chance of the entire con- test. After this setback Yalo never camo closer than Held -- goal range, although U was fairly easy for tho Bulldog to advance through mldfleld. Aided by tho strong wind O'Heurn managed, to kick n son I In the neo-un- d period, the only successful pt In four chances. Harvard came within m.orlng rango In the fourth 'period.

Horemans at present is the cham- pion of Europe, and Contl, who is champion of France, is his btttorcst rival. Ono of the upsets of the recant tourney was the defeat of the Belgian by Contl. Both defeated Eric Hagen-lache- r, the German champ.on. l'his defeat by Contl peeved Horo- - mans so that he made overtures for a championship gimo hero, and ROgef lost no tlmo in accepting.

Yale, Princeton, Harvard and about seven other prominent colleges would form the new conference under a plan proposed by some of tho leading football coaches in tho Eat. Brought Into closb relationship, tho same code of rules would govern all conference tames, although members could go outside for opponents. Tho intenso rivalry between Tale, Prince- ton and Harvard would remain un- broken, but the chief benefit of tha proposed conference would bo the influence brought to bear on smaller Institutions. The Western Conference regula tions serte as a model for most of college: thrcughcut the 2d Weft. An Eastern Conferenco would certainly have tho same powerful In fluence. Football ls growing so fast that it la only a question of tlmo when a central administrative body like tho proposed Eastern Conferenco will bo in absolute necessity. Tho game is now on Its highest plane. Numer ous reforms have brought marked changes, but there a still room fffla, improvement. IJr In the mad scramble to assemble winning teams there still exists In some quarters a tendency to take a short cut to fnmo. Fortunately, for the good of tho sport, tho day of tho tramp athlete is about over. But husky young men aro still lured to colleges and the brand of knowledgo handed out Isn't usually tho main attraction. In the East this practlco would soon be stamped out with a sharp-eye- d central body on tho Job. Tho football success of a llttlo college ls never complete until a gamo Is sched- uled with Yale, Princeton or Harvard. With most of the great Institutions formed In a conference? the ambition of tho little institution could never be realized unless all conferenco reg ulations were Htrlctly observed. Another angle to an Eastern con ference would be tho final nettling orjft football supremacy. At tho end or every season there's a sptritcd pas- time of picking the \best\ teams that can never be brought together except on paper. Yea, bo! What an attraction tt havo tho winners of the Eastern and Western conferences clashing for tho 'nntball championship of the United States! Only frnwbsck to this plan would bo lack of seating capacity.
