IN A HARD GAME.

The Young Lochinvar" came from the
North yesterday and took Columbia's Wanted
football team into camp by a score OF II TO 8.
Not until the game was over did the Blue
and White realize whnt had happened, and
then each man on the eleven looked and
acted as II he had lost his last friend. Co.
lumbia men have been asking ever since the
whistle blow. how IL happened and why.
! The answer is simply that Syracuse played
the fastest and most aggressive football
that has been seen In New York this year.
Their team was outweished, but their snap
and dash did not give Columbia time to think
before the Orange backs were speeding
toward the goal line. Morley at quarter back
for Columbia was slow and deliberate. while
0'Neil snapped the ball so quickly that more
than once Columbia's defence did not have
time TO form.
Brown and Henderson, the Syracuse half
backs, were easily the stars Of the day. They
ran behind a peculiar kind OF tandem inter-
ference with some OF the features OF the
guards-back play. and time and again
weekes was the only man between the runner
and the coveted goal. Another point at
which syracuse eNCelleO was III III WI VI

every play, and the spectacular end runs OF
Harold Weekes got no further than the cm-

sen. on the contrary, were repeatedly Doxed
and their brilliant work against Pennsylvania
failed 10 materialize against the strong IN
ference which they encountered yesterday
The rush lines Of the teams were about evenly
matched although Lancon outplayed his man
while Irvine and Whitwell were decidedly In
ferior to their upstate opponents.
Syracuse chose the north goal and kicked
out the bounds. O'Neil kicked again ana

gain for Columbia and Weekes began a series
