Harvard II; Pennsylvania 10.

Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-Harvard Satur-
day defeated the University of Pennsyl-
vania in their annual football game, II
to TO- Pennsylvania scored one touch
down in the first and one in the second
while Harvard scored twice in the OPEN
ing half and once in the final half
Pennsylvania was outplayed at all
points. The score does not show mark
ed superiority of the Harvard eleven.
Only twice during the entire game were
the Quakers able to hold the crimson
eleven for downs. Pennsylvania defense
was awfuIly weak, while their offense
was smashed to pieces by the heavy
crimson forwards before the plays
would get fairly underway Eliminating
the fumbles of Carl Marshall, the red
and blue would never have been within
striking distance of the Harvard goal,
while the latter's total would have been
at least 3d.
Pennsylvania's first touchdown was
gift. From Pennsylvania 45-yard line,
Reynolds kicked to Carl Marshall on
Harvard's 20-yard mark. Marshall al
lowed Me1zger to knock him against the
ball and Butkiewicz dropped on the ball.
From this point Smith and Piekarsli
carried the ball over, the former scoring
the touchdown. Pennsylvania second
score was made on precisely the same.

Missouri o: washineton O.

St Louis, Nov. 9.-The Missouri
Washington game ended in a tie of 0
to 0. Neither side was able to score
It was hard battle from start to finish
The two teams struggled back and
forth across the line, but most of the
game was fought out in Missouri's ter
ritory.
Anamosa of Missouri and Tolscn of
Washington were the particular stars
of the day. Both of them figured in
nearly every play and without their
presence the story of the game proba-
bly, would be far different. The big In
dian at right end was the most con-
slant ground gamer for the Tigers,
while Tolson's tackles for Washington
were a feature. On one occasion he
hurdled his own line to seize a stalwart
Tiger and fling him to the ground
'Issy' Anderson also was much in
evidence ard circled Washingtons ends
several times for slight gains. Captain
Birney's playing was a disappointment
to the admirers of the Tigers.
The game was marked by hard and
rough playing. but it was remarkable
for the few delays occasioned by men
being laid out. Criticisms of Missouri's
roughness were numerous but WASH
ington lost by ar the more ground for
being penalized for off-side play.

Emporia. Kan, Nov. 9.-The game be-

the way and should have scored anoth-
er time or two. The Normals' score
was made by Hyndman on field goal
from the 25-yard line. Hargis of the
Normal played fast ball. but went out
IN the first half with a hurt leg and
Matthews took his place till the end of
the half. Ice relieved Matthews in the
second half The only changes in the
Swedes' team was Joseph J. Johnson

gust retired with a wrenched knee and
Swanstrom took his place at left half
Ior the second half Big Stromquist, the
full back, played the game for the
Swedes His line bucking was like the
work of a battering ram. The Swedes
used tackle over plays and most sue
cessful of all were the fake plays by
Quarter Back Ranbury. He made the
SWedes' first touchdown on fake play
for 20 yards, and made a 50-yard run
on similar play. The Swedes were
tricky and worked the f1ulzes without a
failure. The second touchdown was
made by Swanstrom on line bucking a
minute of the end of the game The
Normals declare that the second touch
down was not carried over the line The
official decided it was carried over and
pushed back. The Normals played for
wind and wrangled about the SWedes'
fake plays. In this the Normals played
baby ball, and made nothing by it,

up in arms, as they assert that fully

There is some talk of calling in an ex-

one in the crowd passed the ball over
the fence and gave it to an Oklahoma
plavar who downed the ball and was
allowed a touchdown. This decision
was very unpopular. as heretofore

Yale 80; Syracuse Q.

New Haven, Nov 9.-Yale defeated
Syracuse at football. 80 to o. Syracuse
was not heavy enough to threaten Yale's
goal at any time and never came within
range of the posts for a kick save once
when Schade made long end run.
Then the ball was called back and the
play disallowed because of the holding
in the Syracuse line. Yale displayed a
lack of team work and the visitors
line was too light to withstand the on
slaught of the heavy Yale men.

CHICAGO IT; HASKELL IL.
Lawrence Indians Do Fine Work in
Second Half

Marshall Field, Chicago. Nov. 9.-Chi-

Marshall field Saturday by the score
of II to IL.
The game was full of long runs and
spectacular plays. The Indians were
of their brilliant, dashing tactics
Archiquette, Guyon and the Hauser
brothers played great ball for Haskell.
P. Hauser made a touchdown and
kicked field goal and goal from
touchdown. For Chicago. Eckersall
and made good gains. He did not try
any field goals, however.
Chicago fumbled badly, and the In
dams, ever on the alert DrOfited often
by the flukes. The officials penalized
Haskell repeatedly for off-side plays,
ing. Chicago was not penalized during
the entire game.
The Haskell line played very
aggressive game, and Chicago was list
less in it's attacks. Hunt at center was
especially strong. The feature of the
game was Peter Hauser's field goal
from the 40-yard line and his 35-yard
run for Haskells only touchdown. At
times Haskell played rings around
Stages unwieldy linemen. On straight
line plunges, Chicago of course had the
better of the argument.
Both teams were forced to put in
several substitutes. as the game was
a fast and hard one. Haskell PLAYED
the entire sixty minutes without let
ting down and the result was a great
surprise to the supporters of the ma
room. It was an ideal day for football.
and over 10000 people saw the game.
The second half was Haskell's. The
Indians played the faster ball, and
would have tied the score had they not
lost twenty yards for alleged holding.

NO TROUBLE FOR wAsHBURN
Topeka Collegians Defeated Manhat-
tan by a Score of "a to o.

Manhattan, Kan. Nov. 9.-Fifteen
hundred people witnessed the football
gate Saturday afternoon in which
Washburn defeated the State Agricul-
tural college in a fierce contest by
score of "a to O. Although the game
was one-sided, it was interesting, as the
farmers were gritty and were in the
game from the start to finish. The
features were line smashing and punts
by Washburn. The college kicked off
to Washburn and after eleven and one
half minutes of play Washburn scored
the first touchdown Caldwell kicked
goal. The farmers then took a brace
and Washburn was unable to score I'M
til just at the end of the. first half,
when Caldwell was pushed over for an
other touchdown. Washburn kicked
goal. Score IL to o.
In the second half Washburn started
in and by line smashing, punts and long
sensational runs put two more touch
downs to their credit. The college then
took the ball and made great effort
to score, but Washburn was too heavy
for them. Caldwell kicked a pretty field
goal from the 25-yard line and Cunning
ham made a sensational run of fifty
five yards, carrying the pigskin over the
line for the fifth touchdown. The farm
ers tried to score, but time was called
when they were on the 25-yard line.
