Harvard’s eleven played two games last week, one with Bowdoin, Wednes- day, Oct. 4, when the score was 13 to 0, and one with Wesleyan, Saturday, Oct. 7 score 20 to 0. The small score of the first game was due largely to the absence of several of Harvard’s best men, including quarterback Daly. There was, however, two much careless fumbling and poor kicking by the backs to please the coaches and Thursday and Friday were devoted to fixing these irregularities and improving the team play. The Wesleyan game on Satur- day was a much fairer test of Harvard's ~ real strength. The strongest combina- tion was in, and although there were occasional poor plays, the 20 points were made quite easily, by straight, hard line-breaking by Devens, Parker, Ken- dall and Ellis, the latter a Sophomore substitute. Most of Wesleyan’s gains were made through tackles Lawrence and Swain. << The play of the University of Pennsyl- vania in her games this season has been erratic and not up to the high standard of recent years. In the game with Bucknell at Philadelphia, Wednesday, Oct. 4, the first half ended with the score II to 0 in favor of University of Pennsylvania, Bucknell having scored ’ first with a goal from the field, and a few minutes later with another one. In the second half Outland, McCracken, Hare and Coombs, the veterans, were on their mettle, and between them carried Bucknell off her feet with their fierce play, scoring six touchdowns in quick succession. In the game with Brown at Providence, Saturday, Oct. 7, Uni- versity of Pennsylvania was tied with the score 5 to 5. Brown’s touchdown was made on a fumble by Smith, Penn’s left half, her left end, Cuddy, getting through and picking up the ball for a 25-yard run. Hare made Penn’s only touchdown. Brown took the ball away from Penn. on downs repeatedly when it was near her goal line. Princeton’s first important game on her southern trip, which began Fri- day last, was. with the Annapolis Naval Cadets eleven, which she beat by the score of 5 to o. Her first game was with the Maryland Athletic Club the day before, score 28 to o. Constant fumbling, rather than a strong team opposing them, was the principal reason of the low score with the cadets. Columbia won from Rutgers, Tues- day, Oct. 3, by 30 to 0 and from Union College, Saturday, Oct. 7 by 21 to o. There has been little improvement in the work this week. Fumbling by the backs and poor interference are the chief troubles. : Cornell, after playing a loose and ineffective game against Hamilton Col- lege, Sept. 30, in which the score was played a clean, fast game with 1410 FIFTH AVE., NEW YORK CITY. 2oth Century Head - Lights ete ene e O/L--GAS Are the Leading Bicycle Lamps.
