COLUMBIA WON.
Middies Shut Out by a Little Hard
Luck

In a most interesting and evenly CON-
tested foot ball game the navy foot ball
team was defeated at Annapolis yesterday
afternoon by the Columbia University
eleven in the closing game OF the season
to 0. Some hard luck showed I'D against
the middies. as they played better game
than their opponents and made much
greater gains In advancing the ball. but the
thing which cost them the game was when
one Of Belknap's kicks was blocked by a
Columbia lineman when the ball was in
navy's territory, where 1t had rested for
only few minutes during the entire game.
With hopors even near the close of the
game the kick was blocked, Smythe Sc
cured the ball on the forty-yard line and
ran to within fifteen yards Of the nayy's
goal. Before the ball was in play Farley
hurdled the line, and, despite the navy's
protests, the umpire allowed Columbia the
five yards 1t claimed for Off side play With
ten yards to gain. Smith and Weekes did
some fine playing, the former scoring the
touchdown on a terrific plunge through
center. In the first half the middies did
some fine playing and twice worked the
ball near enough for Strassberger to try
for field goal. but in each instance he
regular back in the game. The navy pre-
sented stonewall defense up to the time
of Columbia's score. Afterward the mid
dies seemed a little disheartened, as there
were only three minutes to play, and CO.
lumbia carried the ball twenty-five yards.
The nayy's tackles. Farley and Fretz,
played splendidly on the defense. Strass-
work of Soule and Whiting was fine. They
prevented one Of Weekes' famous end runs,

BIDS FOR FIGHT.
San Francisco and Philadelphia Want
McGovern-Corbett Bout.

Bids were opened yesterday In Cincinnati
for the proposed battle for the feather
weight championship between Young Cor
bett and Terry McGovern. Two clubs made
offers. The Hayes Valley Club of San Fran
cisco sent bid Of 60 per cent Of the gate
receipts and announced Its willingness to
put up bond Of $500. The Penn Art
Club of Philadelphia bid 80 per cent of the
receipts, but failed to say anything about a
forfeit.
The bids were telegraphed to New York
city and considered by Young Corbett and
his manager and Terry McGovern's man
ager. AS neither bid complied with the
terms of the articles Of agreement, neither
was accepted BY mutual agreement the
time Tor bidding was extended until Mo-
vember 25 to give the promoters an oppor-
tunity to send In corrected bid.
The articles call for a 5000 forfeit from
the club securing the contest, to be paid the
fighters in case the club fails to pull off the
fight. Each fighter is called on for a 81, 500
forfeit to guarantee yhis appearance in the

The Hayes Valley Club will get the fight,

fell off badly in the wind-up. Rice was
back in the game in fine shape and materi-
ally aided his side in It's victories, and he
may now be counted on for good work for
the CAROLS, having fully recovered from
his recent indisposition. 'Spiess made a

HART WHIPPED o'BRIEN

In a sizzling wind-up In Philadelp hia
last night Marvin Hart of Louisville won
out from Philadelphia Jack O'Brien by a
tremendous finish in the sixth round
Fifteen pounds below the weight of his
antagonist. the Quaker city champion for
four rounds put up one of the fastest and
cieverest exhibitions of boxing ever seen
In that city. Round and round the southern
puncher he circled. jabbing his left to face
at VIII and clearing the vicious swings
with ease.
In the first round he closed up Harris
In the second. Three to one were the
punches landed by OBrien. but they lack
ed the speed to put Hart out. 80
In the fourth round O'Brien had 1t all
his own way and uppercut. jabbed and
swung on his opponent almost at will

In the fifth strange thing happened
Hart came with rush at the bell and
mixed 1t up. with the odds in his favor
Both were all in at the finish of the
round.
This was Harris chance. Recuperating
more quickly than his lighter opponent he
came out in the sixth as strong as a bull
and, rushing 1t from the start, swung
clean right to O'Brien's Jaw. Even here
the Philadelphia lads stubbornness saved
a Knockout. He took five seconds to slide
down Harris legs after the punch be-
fore the count started. and on the last
beat recovered his legs. From that time
during the remaining two minutes of the
round he chung to the southerner like a
grapevine.
Two punches, one on the jaw and the
other to the heart, would have sent him
down and out had he not caught Hart by
the shoulders and hung till the break.
