Witnessed the Contest.
New York. Nov. 26.-Eighteen thou
sand persons saw the eleven of Brown
university defeat the plucly Indians
from the Carlisle school at Manhattan
field this afternoon, the final score be-
ing: Brown, "a; Carlisle Indian school,
IL. The great bulk of the crowd wit
messed the game without paying for
admission, but the 5000 who bought
tickets were amply repaid by one Of the
fastest and most exciting games ever
seen on the gridiron in this city.
Browns victory, which was rather a
surprise, was mainly due to the mag
nifcent playing of Cammons and FultZ.
1t was in the second half that the
two half backs made their sensational
runs, which won the game. Gammons
was the first to score in the half, with
a grand run of eighty yards, in which
he WdlhSu Cledu way IAOlll SdJouS kilC
speedy Indian half Fultz ran sixty
yards for the next score, and the final
touchdown was the result of beauti-
full concerted run, in which Colby inter-
fered for Gammons, enabling the latter
to pass Metoxen and score after a
sixty-five yard sprint.
1t was the first time during the sea-
son that the Indians had such fast
backs opposed to them, and the red
skins We're completely outclassed when
it came to running. The Carlisle men
were able to go through Brown for
big gains and if it had not been for a
couple of fumbles at critical moments
and a close decision on the part of the
timekeeper at the end of the first half,
the score might have been tie.
When the referee signalled half time
the Indians had the ball within a yard
of the Browns line, and a score was
almost a certainty. The red mems
tackling was not as certain as usual,
and Cayou once missed Fultz on an
easy tackle. While Browns eleven
was about the 1ightest that the Indians
have met this year, the red skins suf-
fered severely in the way of interfer-
ence On the opening play of the game,
Hudson was hurt and had to be taken
off, while Miller, Shelofa. Cayou and
Mcfarland also had to retire from in
juries.
Brown played a beautifully clean and
scientific game, and Captain Colbys
action in allowing Hudson to come
again on the second half was very
sportsmanlike. While the game was by
no means gentle one, the utmost good
feeling prevailed, except on couple of
occasions, when it was apparent that
the redman had learned what slugging
meant A feature of the Indians play
was the cool, strong and we'll timed
kicking Of Captain Bemis Pierce. He
out punted FIall, and made good gains
at every attempt The red skins fought
heroically to the end, and the crowd,
who were enthusiastically in favor of
the natives" cheered them heartily.
At 2:15, the Indians having won the
toss and chosen the goal, Hall kicked
off to Hudson, who was tackled by
Murphy at the red skins twenty-five
yard line The Indian quarter back
was hurt and Shelafo took his place.
Then the Indians commenced their line
bucking operations, and went through
Browns defence as if it were tissue
paper.
Jamison commenced by going through
Dyer for twelve yards. >Cayou and NC
Farland brought the oval to the center
of the field Brown was utterly unable
to stand the pile-driving attacks of the
Indian backs, and was quickly In dan
ger on the ten yard line. But the at
tackers were over anxious, and lost the
ball for holding within five yards of
the line. Fultz got the ball on double
pass, and aided by beautiful interfer-
ence, ran the leather out Of danger to
his own forty-fve yard line. Seeing
that it was next to useless trying the
red mems line, Brown started pass
ing game and running around the ends,
with good results. Three attempts
netted twenty-five yards for the collie
gians and then Colby reached the In
dians' fifteen yard line, on quarter
back kick but was called back, as the
hall had not been kicked forward ten
yards.
The oval went to the Indians on their
own thirty-five yard line, and they
worked it back to the center, only
to lose possession on a tumble. Gam
mons and Fultz by two nice runs
brought hostilities on the Indians fif-
teen yard line. Fultz brought the
leather within a foot of the line, and on
the next play he was sent over for a
touchdown, and kicked his own goal,
making the score 6 to in favor of
Brown. After an interchange of kicks
between Hall and B. Pierce the Indians
again commenced to press at Brown S
thirty yard line. Summergill got hurt
In a scrimmage and Chase was substi-
tuted.
After advancing the oval ten yards
the Indians failed to gain the nee
I essary five yards, and the ball went
! to Brown. After a forty yard run by
4 Fultz the collegians were forced to sur
\ render the oval on downs at the In
dians' forty-five yard line. B. Pierce
got the best of Hall on an exchange of
punts, and Cayou and Mcfarland rush
+ ed the oval to Browns fifteen yard line.
Cayou gained ten yards more and on
the next play went between Casey and
Murphy and grounded the oval behind
the posts. B. Pierce kicked the goal
tying the score at s to 6. Hall kicked
off, and Mcfarland returned, but
Brown lost the ball for holding at the
Il center Mcfarland kicked on the third
