YALE TOPS HARVARD, 26 TO 13, IN FOOTBALL CLASHES

Success in the Harvard-Yale football series has come to each team in cycles, but Fortune has smiled more often on the Blue than on the Crimson. Of the 45 games played, Yale has won 26, Harvard 13, and six have been tied.

Harvard won the opening contest in 1875 by four field goals and four touchdowns to nothing. The following year the University scored three touchdowns, but all failed of goal, and under the scoring system then in force, the lone field goal registered by the Elis outweighed the Crimson count.
