NEW 1Ohh, Oct. Z3.-Ine annual
football contst between Yale and the
Carlisle Indian school elevens attracted
5000 persons to the polo grounds this
afternoon. Yale did not present her
strongest players. In spite of this, how
ever the men from New Haven played
fast game In the first half and found no
trouble whatever in getting around the
sides. Besides this they almost pushed
through the line of the redskins at will.
In the second half, with the same play
ers, Yale played an entirely different
game The work of the backs was ex-
ceptionally slow, while the interference
was very poor. They also fumbled fre-
quently. The Indians took advantage of
the poor work and, as a result, scored all
of the points credited to them while the
Yale men were sin the air." Cudson, the
clever little quarterback, accomplished
feat not often seen on the gridiron by
kicking goal from the field from the
thirty five-yard line. Score: Yale "a
Carlisle 4.
STANFORD WINS
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23-St snford
defeated the Reliance club in today's
football game of the intercollegiate Sc
ries by the score Of s 6. The game was
largely a kicking contest, the field be-
ing so soft and muddy that there was
very little running, and neither side
could gain ground with any regularity,
either by end-running or line-bucking.
ot,ff ff.rI o1a ,,1x- +t,o
big and better Reliance team. The score
gives no criterion of the relative merits
of the teams, for the ball was most of
the time in Reliance territory. That
Reliance scored at all was hardly Stan
ford's fault, but that Stanford did not
score more frequently was remarkable.
The Stanford line was almost like
stone wall, through which Reliance
vainly tried to break.
Before the game was ten minutes old
Stanford had blocked two kicks in rapid
succession. the second forcing Reliance
to g. touchdown fer safety, giving Stan
ford two points. In the second half,
through two clever runs by Murphy.
Stanford got the ball into Reliance ter
ritory. Leavitt of Stanford made spec
tacuar thirty-yard run to the goal post,
lChclt, AotdHlOid . udl u, ia ' lliS CleN-
erly pushed Frick OF Reliance aside.
A touchdown and goal followed. Reli-
ence's touchdown was made possible
through Murphy missing punt he tried
to catch and losing to Reliance on STAN
ford's four-yard line. After three at
tempts Reliance carried it over.
