Hun dreds of them jumped on to each other’s shoulders and hugged each other with Joy. Firecrackers were shot off in all parts of the field, and the crowd went into the grounds. While the band struck up a lively air and the semblance of a parade was started the victorious rooters then went to the Yale stand and cheered the Yale rooters who remained in their seats gloomily watching the demonstra tion. They responded to the courtesy of the Harvard rooters with a few faint cheers. FIRST QUARTER. Yale won the toss and chose to defend the south goal. Flynn kicked oft.
