The Normal Defeated.

The Normal School Football Elev-
en- journeyed to Carlisle on Saturday,
and met defeat at the hands of the In
dians of that place by score of 43
to o. The Normalites did not ex-
pect to score on the red skins, but
they did expect TO keep the score un-
der the 43 mark. The report of the
game, as appeared in the Philadelphia
Inquirer, says: "The visitors played
well on the defensive, but were pow
erless against the Indian line" There
is but very little, if any, difference
in the makeup of the Carlisle team
from that of last season, when they
beat the normal on the Bloomsbury
grounds by score of 26 to o. But
we will be better able to Judge the
Normal teams strength next Satur-
day, when they will play Dickinson
on Normal field.
