Last week’s football work among the other colleges closed with hard games for most of them, and some surprises were recorded, chief among them, per- haps, being the defeat of Pennsylvania by the Carlisle Indians. Pennsylvania is generally expected to develop early, and about this time has had, for the past three or four years, undoubtedly the strongest team of any of the colleges. Although a good start was made with five veterans and an army of promising material, the eleven has been very ragged in its work and has been scored on twice, the University of Virginia making one of these touchdowns by a 65-yard run around left end. The weak point is at guards, usually exceptionally strong on this eleven. Although Pennsylvania won with a score of 33 to 5, her play had no life or dash in it. The game on Satur- day at Philadelphia with the Indians was expected to be hard and close, but none looked for the result which came— 16 to 5 in favor of the Indians. Penn- sylvania was outplayed from the begin- ning at her own game, as may be seen from the fact that she could make but 63 yards in the rushing game to 240 by Carlisle, in the first half. Hudson, Carlisle’s quarter, kicked one goal from the 40-yard line, but the other touch- downs were made by straight, hard line- bucking which Pennsylvania could not stop. Hare made Pennsylvania’s only touchdown from a fair catch shortly be- fore the second half ended, thus saving a shut-out. The other surprise of the day was the trouncing Cornell received from the Uni- versity of Chicago at Chicago, the final score standing 17 to 6. Cornell was out- pointed in every department of play and her line was unable to hold. The physi- cal condition of the Cornell men seemed to be bad, as Captain Starbuck and three of his. best players were obliged to re- tire before the game was over. It was the first meeting of the two universities on the gridiron. Columbia’s newly organized eleven was introduced into the first class in the game with Princeton at Manhattan Field, Saturday. Before then, her games had been with minor colleges, where the score stood largely in her favor, but beyond showing the team to be composed of good, willing material, nothing had been done to give much indication of its real strength. Some partisans said the visitors would be beaten; others that they would be scored upon, but the general impression was that Princeton would run up a good hau SO se vent for the surplus gas. When more pressure is needed it allows Pressure at burner is always uniform. Burns Loose Carbide. The Combination Water Trap and Gas Seal is the secret. When pressure is too great it automatically cuts off the water Supply and affords a large figure. That Princeton did no better than 11 to o is regarded as a sign of Columbia’s strength and not Prince- ton’s weakness. The game was well contested throughout, Wheeler, Palmer and Poe doing the best work for Prince- ton, the latter scoring the last touch- down by a run of 40 yards, under some- what similar conditions to that he made against Yale last season. ; Princeton played a game with Lafay- ette at Princeton, Wednesday, Oct. II, defeating them I2 to 0. did punting for Lafayette kept the score low. Lafayette is as strong or stronger this year than last, when she gave Penn- sylvania so hard a tussle and beat the Tigers. The biggest score of the week was that made by Harvard against Amherst at Cambridge, Wednesday, Oct. 11— 41 too. Yale scored 23 to o against the same team two weeks ago. Daley, en- tirely recovered from his injuries, was in at quarter for Harvard and drove his men at a fast pace. Most of the touch- downs came through the hard, straight kind of play. Kendall, at left half, made the sensational play of the day with a 60-yard run. Ellis at right-half was given a lot of hard work to do and is regarded as a find who will go a long way towards filling the hole left by Dibblee. West Point was unable to score on Harvard at West Point or come danger- ously near her goal line. The final score was, Harvard 18, West Point o. The figures of this game last year were 27 to o. West Point is, however, playing in poorer form than for several years past, and has had no professional coach. Romeyn and Kromer, two of the men who did much to bring West Point to the front, and who were responsible for touchdowns against Yale and Princeton, are in the army, and their successors are far below their standard. Harvard would undoubtedly have scored several times more, but for fumbling in the back field, a tendency which has marked the Cambridge players since their first game, in strong contrast to the magnifi- cent work in that department last year.
