Princeton. n. J., Oct. S.-The best de-
Tense that Princeton has yet met was en-
countered in the Washington n Jefferson
game this afternoon. which Princeton won
by 16 to o. In the first half Princeton did
not score until the last minute of play,
the visitors keeping the ball as long as
Princeton, and holding the home team for
downs three times.
At one juncture the Princeton eleven
reached the courtyard line. when they
were held for downs. Short recovered the
bail on a tumble one minute before the
first half closed, and went over for the
first score.
In the second half the visitors were
weakened by the former battering, and
touchdowDs by Simons and Foulke re-
suited. End runs were principally used by
Princeton for ground-gainiug.

C. B. C. DEFEATS WEST ENDS.
Ball Is Not in Danger Near the Col
Iege Goal.

Christian Brothers College opened its
season yesterday afternoon n scored a
victory over the West Ends. an independ-
emit team. of st. Louis. The game proved
little more than a practice event, al
though it was arranged for this purpose
only.
The college boys scored a shut out over
the Ends and the result was % to o.
Although the West Ends greatly out
weighed the Cote Brilliante boys. the lat
ter had little trouble in scoring. The Ends
clearly showed that they need a great deal
OF practice and more team work. The fea-
ture of the zane was the thirty-yard run
by Captain Brockmeyer.
The college will play its first real
game of the season next Saturday. wnen
Quincy will come down to play.

The Cincinnati Reds made the St. Louis
Cardinals look gloomy at League Park
yesterday afternoon, when they dumped
them down the chutes in both games Of a
double-header. The men from "Redville"
put the kibosh on the locals by a score
Of 2 to 0 in the opener, and came back
with an Stool victory in the last.
BY agreement, the second game was
called at the end Of the seventh inning.
That was plenty. Had 1t gone further
the good Offices OF police Intervention
would have had to been solicited to avoid
further punishment. Cincinnati was ex-
hausted running around the bases. while
the local nelders wore out all the shoes
they won this season making home runs,
chasing the pishide around the field.
Ono redeeming feature Of the game lies
in the fact that 1t served to introduce the
local fans to some of the Cardinal recruits.

game, while Hill played left field and But
