FOOTBALL SEASON STARTED.
Yale Beat CoIumbia-Harvar De-
feated Carlisle.

New York, Oct. 2S.-Yale defeated Co.
lumbia at Columbia field by the score of II
to 8. 1t was a surprising game of football,
as the New Haven boys were expected by
everyone to beat the Columbia team by a
heavy score. Columbia started with an
aggressive game, and until eight minutes
of the second half had been played it look
ed as if she would repeat her victory of
last year over Yale. She hit Yale's line
hard and throughout the first half kept the
ball continually in Yale's territory. Yale
was noticeably slow in lining up, while
Columbia was quick. There was no at
tempt by either team at mass formations
or combinations, the straight, old-style
football, with runs on the end and at
tacks at the line, being followed. The
teams were very evenly matched as to
weight, though Yale had the advantage in
the center of the line, her trio of Brown,
Olcott and Sheldon, at left guard, center
and right guard, being hard to beat Co
lumbia made up for this, however, back
of the line Yale's team averaged lS4
pounds and Columbis's $50 ID.

Harvard Beat Carlisle.
Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 2S.-Harvard
defeated Carlisle Indian football team
by II to 5. In the first half the Indians
clearly outplayed Harvard, but as usual
in the second half they could not keep up
their fast work. The Harvard team was
inferior on the offense and the defense
could not hold the Indians down until late
in the second half. The weather was very
poor for football. The crowd, however,
numbered 10000, despite the drilling
rain. Carlisle's offense was peculiar. On
all plays from the right side the left side
would get flying start and pull the
Harvard's end or tackle out of the play.
Then at times the whole left side of the
line would change over to the right side
of the line. Roberts, as Carlisle's quar-
ter, was continually coached in his choice
of plays by Trainer Warner, much to the
disgust OF the crowd. Warner was re-
peatedly warned, but was not put out.
