Before an audience of 1900 enthusiasts
tic rooters gathered on Georgetown
Field yesterday afternoon, the Blue and
Gray bowed down ia defeat, yielding
slowly but surely to the onslaught Of
the braves from Carlisle. Could Alex

Carlisle's victory was decisive. though
not as humiliating TO the local COL
legians as last year. when she defeated
Georgetown o TO G. The game was in-
teresting from the kick-oi until the
final whistle closing the ,lecond half,
but, as an exposition OF fsticuffs. II was
far and away ahead Of anything ever
before seen on Georgetown Field
Fights a-Plenty.
Toward the end of the first half there
were three separate and distinct boxing
matches conducted in the center OF the
field. at the same time. between men
supposed to be wrestling for football
honors. At the close Of the second half.

visiting team, received injuries IN some

Carlisle's game was erratie. some
times speedy. and al others the backs

than a walk The Indians. however,
1 showed great possibilities. and IL was
evident that Harvard's failure TO beat
them more decisively last Saturday need
not be considered a token OF especial
weakness on the part Of the Crimson
team.
The Carlisle line had the jump on
their Georgetown opponents IN nearly
every play. and the local backs were
stopped almost before they got under
way.
The game was remarkable for its
lack of straight football" in the
technical sense OF the term. Bott
teams constantly tried special forma-
tions in the offense that verged on tn,
trick play.
Carroll and Williams were slow il
punting, and 10 their lack of speed wa.
