ON THE GRIDIRON,
University and Freshman Teams Win
Two Games Each,
The University Eleven met a team
from Brown University at the Yale
Field on Wednesday, Oct 7 and won
the game by the score of 18 to 0. The
outcome of the game was somewhat of
a surprise, as Brown was reported to
have a very good team and it was
thought that Yale would surely be
scored against, if not defeated. The
work of the home team both ecollective-
ly and individually was vastly im-
proved aver the showing. of the pre-
vious week and Yale had no difficulty
in opening up Brown’s line for succes-
sive gains of five yards or more.
Yale’s defensive work was alSo. very
strong and Brown was forced to kick
on many occasions and often lost
ground on their plays. Brown’s only
gains of importance were obtained by
kicks, which by the way were not al-
ways successful, while Yale forced her
way behind the goal posts by means
of steady hard rushes.
The greatest improvement in Yale’s
playing during the past week was
shown in their team work, their strong
and well formed interference and the
general snap with which all plays were
executed. As soon as the ball was put
into play every one of the eleven Yale
men started immediately and they
worked together like machines. There
was no mistaking of signals and very
little fumbling. The line up of the two
teams was as follows:

YALE 12; ORANGE 0.
Yale defeated the Orange Athletic
Club at Orange Oval last Saturday by
the score of 12 to 0, three touchdowns
being . made. A crowd of over two
thousand spectators were present, in-
cluding a large number of Yale grad-
uates. ;
The work of the team on the whole
was not of the highest order, fumbling
being quite frequent and the interfer-
ence often weak. Although three
touchdowns were scored, no goals
were kicked from them, this being
partially excused by the wind, which
was very strong. The rush line showed
unexpected strength all through the
same. Van Every and Rodgers did
especially good work for Yale, and
Maynard and Kyle for Orange.
The line-up of the teams was as
follows:

The Freshman eleven played its first
game in New Haven last Saturday
against the team of the Worcester Ath-
letic club. Not until the last part of
the second half was either side able to
score, when the Freshmen made th?
only touchdown of the game. Brinley
carried the ball across .the line and -
Scheppe kicked goal. Luce and Brin-
ley played the best game for Yale,
while the work of Becton of Worces-
ter was a feature of the game.

The Yale Sound Money Club.
The committees in charge of the
Sound Money movement have met with
a good deal of discouragement in their
attempts both to perfect a marching
organization so as to participate in
any of the prominent parades at either
New Haven or New York and also iin
securing prominent speakers. It has
been the unanimous wisSh of the stu-
dents to hear either Mr. Reed, Mr.
Depew or Mr. Bourke Cochran on the
money question, but they have all been
assigned to speak in the WeSt and can-
mot arrange tto visit New Haven. Ar-
rangements had been completed with
the New York Republican county com-
mittee for the. participation of the
batallion in the big business men’s
parade on Oct. 31st., but owing to the
Faculty’s objection this has been given
up. The rallies here at New Haven
have also had to be postponed. from
fear that student participation would
do more harm than good, owing’ totive”
Bryan incident on the Green. It seems
at present as. if the committees in
charge. would have to make a still eol-
lege campaign. They are doing every-
thing in their power, however, to see
that students reSiding within a day’s
ride of New Haven, go home to vote
for sound money. The committees in
charge of the Sound Money movement
are composed of the following:
Academic Department—L. M. Bas
97, G. .C. Brook ’97, E. Hill ’97, L. Hiin-
key ’97.

cis ’°97, R. J. Grant ’97, T. M. Laughlin

Resolutions of Yale Bryan Club.
A meeting was held last Saturday
evening of those interested in forming
a Bryan and Sewell Club at Yale. Offi-
cers were elected as follows: Gerald
Hughes, ’97, of Denver, Col., Presi-
dent; CG. H. Studinski, ’97, of Pueblo,
Col., Secretary and TreaSurer. An Ex-
ecutive Committee, consisting of the
President, J. W. Bryan, ’97, and A. E.
Jones, Jr., °99, was selected to take
charge of the plans of the club. The
treatment of the Hon. William Jen-
nings Bryan at his recent visit to New
Haven was discussed and the following
resolutions were paSsed and unani-
mously adopted by the club.
Whereas, At the recent visit of Mr.
Bryan to New Haven, certain members
of Yale University did thoughtlessly and
unfortunately interfere with the proceed-
ings, and
Whereas, Such action has unjustly
been imputed by tthe press to the Yale
students as a whole,
Be it Resolved, That we, the members
of the Bryan and Sewall Club of Yale
University, do hereby condemn this ac-
tion as untrue to the sentiments of our
University, and hostile to the spirit of
broad-mindedness which has always
vharacterized Yale men, and that we
tender to Mr. Bryan our sincerest apol-
ogy for this action of some of our fel-
ees ee ec and
e. urther resolved, That a it:
these resolutions be sent to Mr. Drak
and to the press of the country,
The newly formed Bryan and Sew-
all Club will hold frequent meetings
and endeavor to promote the cause of
the Popocrats in the University. The
members present numbered about 30.

INTERCOLLEGIATE TENNIS.
Harvard Wins the Cup—Her Double
Victory.
The fifteenth annual Intercollegiate
Tennis Tournament, which was held
October 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10th, on the
grounds of the New Haven Lawn club,
resulted in victories for Harvard in
both singles and doubles, thus giving
her permanent possession of the $600
Intercollegiate cup. This trophy was
first contested for in 1889. It’s value
is greatly enhanced by the prominent
names engraved among the list of
winners. Three men who have had
the national championship in singles,
O. S. Campbell, Fred Hovey and R. D.
Wrenn, as well as such noted players
aS Larned, Malcom, Chace, I. A. Shaw,
Foote and Budlong, have at one time
or another won the trophy for a year.
The cup was given on the condition
that it should go to the college which
first won seven points, first place in
doubles, or singles each counting one
point. Before the tournament this
year, Harvard and Yale were tied with
five points each. This fact gave the
tournament an especial interest. -
Yale’s representatives, C. P. Dodge
99, H. H. Hackett 1900, and R. Hooker
*99, were all players of comparatively
little experience, while Ware and
Whitman of Harvard were men of na-
tional reputation. Consequently Yale’s
chief hope was that some other col-
lege would prevent Harvard from w'n-
ning more than one of the two
greatly contested points. Budlonge of
Brown was counted as the man most
likely to fulfill these hopes.
The tournament opened with a sur-
prise. Driscoll from Georgetown uni-
versity, a player little known in tthe
East, but well known on the California
coast defeated Budlong with ease in
the first round. He thus became the
unknown element in the tournament,
and Yale had great hopes of his final
success. The rest of the play was
uneventful.
All of Yale’s representatives were
successful in their first round. Hooker
succumbed to Whitman of Harvard
after he had won: two matches. Dodge
after beating Perry of Williams, Fos-
ter of Harvard, and ‘Thompson of
Princeton, in hard fought matches,
met Whitman of Harvard in tthe semi-
finals and was easily defeated. It was
in this round that Driscoll of George-
town surprised everybody again by
beating Ware of Harvard in a beau-
tifully fought match. Yale’s hones
rose higher with this victory, and
many thought that Whitman too
would fall before the Westerner.
The doubles had already been practi-
cally won for Harvard, for her two
teams were to meet in the finals. Dris-
coll was the only man who stood be-
tween Harvard and the cup. his ov-
ponent being Whitman. Both men
realized that the situation was criti-
cal, and the audience was prepared for
a hard fight. But Driscoll had been
weakened by his six davs’ trip across
the continent, and a week of hard
playing. The night before the fina's
he was so ill as to require a nhy-
Sician’s attendance. This in part ac-
counted for the fact that Whitman
beat him with ease in three Straight
sets; though it was the unanimous ver- .
dict that Whitman would have out-
plaved him, even had Driscoll heen
at his best.
In the doubles Ware and Scudder of
Harvard met Whitman and Forbes also
of Harvard, and succeeded in beating
them onlv after a prolonged five set
match. The Second prize in singles was
won by Neely of Cornell, and the sec-
ond fin doubles went to Hooker and
Noyes of Yale by default.
A meeting of the Intercollegiate
Tennis Association was held during
the tournament, Thompson of Prince-
ton was elected President for the ecom-
ing vear; Ware of Harvard. vice
president, and Dodge of Yale, secre-
tary and treasurer. StenS have been
taken itowards raising funds for the
purchase of a new cup by a joint sub-
scription of the colleges. —

Getting Square with Yale.
[Mr. Bromley in New York Tribune.]
Professor Sumner, of Yale, being, as
we shall presently show, at his last
gasp, and presumably in a mood of
humility and contrition, has made
public through “The Yale Alumni
Weekly” a letter written to him by
Mr. George P. Dier, of Bozeman,
Mont., in reply to, or rather in con-
sequence of, the Professor’s recent ar-
ticle in ‘‘The Chautauquan.’’ We con-
fess that we do not know Mr. MDier,
thereby doubtless arguing ourselves
unknown, but he is obviously an ex-
tremely resolute and confident de-
fender of the faith delivered to the
American people by the Chicago Con-
vention. Mr. Dier wastes no time in
embroidering’ his epistle, but gets right
down to business with a volley of re-
sounding Don’t-you-knows, of which
the following is a--sample: ‘*‘Don’t
you know that if the Government, un-
der unlimited free coinage of silver,
16 to 1, hought silver bullion at $1.29
per ounce, that the price could not go
below the mint price?” Now, if Mr.
Dier had merely discharged this fusil-
lade and stopped, leaving its hideous
effect upon the Professor to the im-
agination, he would, perhaps, have
done all that could reasonably be de-
‘manded in the interest of Mr. Bryan.
But Mr. Dier is not that sort of war-
rior. He realized that the Professor,
though terribly disfigured, might pos-
sibly succeed in crawling away. And
so he followed up his broadside and
put the wretched man beyond human
help with this deadly thrust: “I am
astonished that such an _ arrogant
jackass as your article would indi-
cate you are can occupy a chair in a
college like Yale.”
If Mr. TDier were nct as modest as
he is valiant, he would not have made
the pretence of thus addressing a liv-
ing man in the present tense. For
Professor Sumner is to all intents and
purposes 2 goner. Mr. Dier has fin-
‘ished him. The only place he is now
qualified to occupy is a grave in the
New Haven Cemetery, and the Yale
students’ devilish protest against Mr.
Brvan’s announcement that they were
being educated on the ill-gotten gains
of their fathers has been triumphantly
avenged.
