Elephants Down Yale Booters In House-College Playoffs

NEW HAVEN, Nov. 20--Coming from behind to score twice in the second half, a determined Eliot House soccer team downed Calhoun College, 2 to 1, yesterday to take the House--College championship.

Center halfback Tom Gleason tallied for Eliot on a penalty shot with ten minutes gone in the second half to tie the score at 1 to 1. A few minutes later, Ralph Hellmold, right inside, took the ball from 25 yards out, eluded two Calhoun defenders, and fired past the goalie for the deciding point.

Calhoun managed to put just one shot past Eliot goalie John Morris, a low boot in the right hand corner that gave it a first half lead of 1 to 0. During the rest of the game, Morris made several sensational saves, including one on an attempt in the last period that he managed to divert over the goal post with his finger tips.

In the second half, however, when the aroused Eliot squad hammered constantly at the Bulldogs, Morris' services were seldom needed. The Elephants pressed the obviously tired Calhoun team, keeping most of the play at the enemy's end of the field, and its forwards fought desperately to first even the score and then to win.
