Points as the Result of Fumbles
In the Second Half of the Game.

The Georgetown Props met the Rockville
Academy football team on Georgetown
Field yesterday and after two ffteen-min-
ute halls had been played the score stood
u to In favor Of the former. Although
superior In nearly every way to their op-
ponents. the Props did not play with the
vim that has heretofore characterized the
contests with various local teams. Roth
OF the Props touchdowus were earned by
hard football, while Rockville scored their
six points as result of fumbles near the
end of the second half.
Tho Rockville team played at times
strong defensive game. With the ball in
their possession, however. it was difficult
for them to gain. Fumbles were frequent
on both sides.
The game was called promptly at $3.50
o'clock. Georgetown won the toss and
chose to defend the north goal. Rockville

and returned with it to the centre Of the
field before he was downed. Rockville held
the Props for downs and got the ball on
their own 4O-yard line. Rockville made
gains through the line for while and then
lost the ball on tumble at the centre Of
the field.
Coleman punted out of bounds ON Rock
villes 15-yard line. Abbattichio recovered
the ball for the Preps who were now with

first touchdown. Coleman kicked goal.

Eight minutes after the call for time
at the beginning of the second half, the
Props scored the second and final touch
down. The ball had been worked steadily
to within foot Of the goal line by the
considerable gains of Simmons. Edmon-
ston. Danaher, and Coleman. Here Rock
vile made a desperate stand and twice
were the Props held without gain. On
his third attempt at bucking the line.
however, Danaher went over for the sec
ond touchdown and Coleman kicked goal
Rockville secured its only score toward
the end of the last half. There had been
an exchange of punts in the Props terri
tory and Coleman dropped back and punt
ed again. The ball went high and when
1t came down fell into and then bounced
out of the arms of waiting Rockville

A BALL CLUB ASSURED
The American League to Invade
Washington Next Season.
Bun Il. johnson Declares Tint This
city Will He Made the Home Of
Strong Team-Jimmy Manning
Likely to He Offered Its Manage
ment - Local Fans Interested.

Washington is assured of a baseball
club next summer, if Ban B. Johnson,
President of the American League, is to
be credited. His promises have found
credence with the local baseball men,
who are enthusiastic over the prospect.
Mr.. Johnson. Charles Comiskey, and c.
W. Somers, of the committee having in
League in Eastern cities. accompanied
by Connie Mack, also of the American
League. arrived in Washington Friday
night and registered at the Ralei2h. They
left last night for Baltimore to take part
in the conference of baseball men, from
which much Is expected.
Michael Scanion and Mr.. O'Donnell, who
have been foremost in the interests Of
the organization of a local team. were
in consultation with the Western mag
mates yesterday. They both were in
good spirits over the result Of the talk.
1t appears that the American League
wishes to enlist as much local capital as
possible in the scheme, and Is well con-
teEted with the efforts Of MIR. Scanlon
and Mr. O'Donnell toward that end. 1t is
proposed, as stated by Mr.. johnson. that
Jimmy Manning. of Kansas City, shall
have charge of the projected team.
Manning had charge of the Kansas City
team last season. II is stated that the
American League has positively con-
cluded to drop Kansas City, this decision
having been reached at the last meeting
held in Chicago some time since. Man.
ming was at the time much opposed to
the discarding Of his team, and used
every effort to have it otherwise. 1t has
been said that Manning does not desire
to leave Kansas City and that he may go
into the Western Association. This pos
sibility is considered remote, but is
contingency for which the local repre-
sentatives OF the American League are
prepared. Mr.. Scanlon believes that SUI
ficient capital has been subscribed by
Washington people to enable the club to
conduct its own affairs IL Manning should
not wish to take it in charge.
1t is learned from Mr.. Johnson that the
five-year agreement with President Hart,
of the Chicago team, concerning players.
expires November 20, and will not be re-
newed. The American League, Mr.. john
son said, will establish clubs In Wash
ington, Baltimore. and Philadelphia.
What other cities in the East would be
alta ched by the league 1t was too early
to decide Mr.. Robinson and Mr.. McGraw
will have charge of the Baltimore team.
according to the present purposes OF the
Circuit Committee.
Mr., johnson positively denied that the
American League entertained even the
most distant idea Of amalgamating with
the National association. He even de-
MED that he would attend the conference
arranged for last night in Baltimore

| NEW HAVEN. Conn.,, Nov. 1O.-with the
! best players of Harvards crack varsity
| eleven looking on from choice seats among
the New Haven undergraduates. the Yale
| team played phenomenal football against
! the Carlisle Indians this afternoon, the red
men being vanquisheH by the overwhelm-
| ing score of IS to 0, in halls Of thirty and
| twenty-five minutes.
| Among the Harvard men watching the
| game were Coaches Forbes. Lewis, and
! Waters. Fullback Ellis. Halfbacks Sawin
| and Hallowell. Princeton. too, had eagle
eyed watchers on the ground, in Coaches
Edwards and Ballet, who wanted to find
! out just how strong a team Yale will take
down to Old Nassau next Saturday When
the game was at an end, all of these ex-
perts were of the opinion that Yale is com-
. ing so fast that the championship may come
to this city AFTER All.
The Harvard men went away to Cam
bridge tonight by no means oyerconhdent.
and the Princeton coaches went home posi-
lively distressed in mind. They saw Yale
invfncible in defence against the fierce
dashes OF plucky red men, while in attack
the blues showed marvellous speed. To sum
1t all up, Yale played better and faster
football than at any previous time this
year. The coaches made most evenly
balanced combination Of heavy rush line
and light back field.
Hitherto fault had been found with the
backs because they were too heavy, and
consequently slow in getting the plays I'M
der way. But the backs in today's game
were so fast and agile that many long and
brilliant runs were made. Yale's interfer-
ence was fair. but not what Harvard's was
against Pennsylvania. The Yale runners
had no protection, but s'ugly lodged their
way along until they were downed. Yale
never let up in the fiereeness Of play.
Though the game progressed rapidly. not
single Yale man was laid out moment
for repairs. The only real fault to be found
with Yale's play was the fumbling and
NUTS of balls by Quarterback Weare.

Germany's Army Is for Defence.
From Mcf1ure's Msgazine)

The German army, like the German nation, has
been squeezed into existence. Germany, open on
every side to attack. has been the great battle
ground Of Europe through all the centuries; and
by constan; pressure within and without the army
has had its growth. II was the result of stern
necessity II was defence OF death: and that in
spite Of the commonly reported military aspira-
lions of the German Kaiser is the keynote of the
system The army must be made powerful enough
TO defend the country from the attacks of any one
power or all Of them together. II il is necessary
to march into France in the course of such war
well and good: but that is not the fundamental
purpose OF the army.
