1T was terrible for Terry.

Young Corbett ought to change his
name and get up-to-date. Young JEFF
fries wouldn't be out of place.
Holy Cross outplayed Tufts from
the opening minutes until there was no
chance of continuing without artificial
light.
People who never cared what
Young Corbett's real name might be,
will now be eager to know that w. H.
Rothwell is the Denver lads name.
There was no smuggling in the game
at Mt. ST. James and if there was, it
was so feeble that there was no COM
plant Clean football is the grandest
of fall sports and for the sake of the
game it should be kept so at all times.
-Larkin's diving tackle of Flagg, the
Tufts quarterback after the latter had
gained 40 yards on a trick play, was
the lest piece Of defensive work seen
yesterday. Larkin went about ten
feet through the air before landing his
man.
All champions must fall some day,
but this doesn't always come when in
the family circle, as it were. Yester-
day the Webster basketball team,
prestige and all, went down in the
dust on the home surface before the
MllDufy team.
Dartmouth won from Brown for
the first time in II years yesterday,
and the green at Hanover last night
must have floated on high. Brown, Is
in the dumps. Her football team has
not been near enough in form to those
of former years to be recognized.
Dartmouth deserved its victory
over Brown. The Hanover boys have
worked 1ilyA fandc 10 a Or
team, and this season Dartmouth has
turned out a splendid team, one that
is a credit to Coach Mccormack, one
of the very best of football leaders.
-McGlew, the Tufts right halfback
was a member of Salem High School
team when Zeus Roberts, the Harvard
centre, Hanlon, an end at Dartmouth,
Goodhue of Harvard and Koen, the
former Boston College tackle and cap
tain, were playing on the same eleven.
Cornell gave University of Penn
sylvania another setback yesterday
Coach Woodruff's resignation should
be allowed to stand and Pennsylvania
should get up to date. Woodruff tried
to live on the guards back" reputa-
ton too long, and it is small wonder
that he fell.
Columbia, with all it's football
wrinkles, as shown by George Foster
Sanford, always does something furi-
Gus to the Indians and yesterday was
no exception. By beginning each sea-
son splendidly and closing in a bril-
liant fashion, Columbia manages to be
conspicuous in the football world.
Tufts claimed that Holy Cross
victory of II to gained earlier in the
season, was not indicative of the real
strength of Tufts. Yesterday the Med
ford men had the strongest team that
it has presented since the opening of
the season, but Holy Cross added to
it's previous point total And the game
was not played out at that
The ground gaining of the Holy
Cross backs and Noone, was enough
| in itself to keep the spectators blood
in circulation. Coach Edgar Atkin, who
assisted Coach Maurice Conner by in
| structing the men in the Holy Cross
| back field, certainly performed splen-
| did service when he perfected Holy
! Cross backs in the Yale tackle back
! formation. 1t was never failing
| ground gamer yesterday.
One Worcester man who has been
exceedingly fortunate in picking win
ners of various sporting events in the
past few months, claims to have sec
ond-sight' ability, and scores of peo-
pie who have lost money have been
only go willing to seek advice on the
McGovern- Young Corbett fight Yes
terday he began a new business, that
of betting for men with money on per-
centage basis. If he picked the winner
and placed the money, 10 per cent of
the winnings came to him. If he lost
he was nothing out of pocket But
the misguided chap bet every copper
on Terry, including all of his own coin
that he could muster.
