Fen Surprises Found
In Football Results
Yaie's Difficulty With Penn State Principal
One-GeorgetoWn Was Game to the Core.
George Washington Little Improved.

With the exception of the trouble Yale
had in downing Penn State there were
few surprises in Saturdays football re-
suits.
1t was expected that Harvard would
have all sorts of trouble in beating West
Point as several OF the Crimson stars.
including Captain Hurley, are on the
Red Cross list. and there was consider
able satisfaction in Cambridge over the
fact that Bill Reds proteges got the
long end of the score. even though it
was small
PrincetoD's fast scoring team ran up
2 on Lafayette, but the Eastern eleven
got goal from the field. The much
heralded Western Pennsylvania players
go theirs in punches at the hands of
Cornell, the Ithacans bowling them
about Percy Field until 30 points had been
scored. Columbia had trouble in tying
Amherst. while Penn had to be satisfied
with an S-6 victory over Brown. Barring
fumbling the Quakers could have rolled
up large score on the Providence
eleven. so the Philadelphia critics are
well satisfied with the result
George Washington was the only local
team 10 escape defeat. Swarthmore' S
weight crushed Georgetown's light play
ers. and the Blue and Gray was lucky
20 escape with n 30 to score. Gallaudet
received her worst drubbing of the sea-
son. going down before Virginia Poly
technic Institute by Sc to 0.
The game at University Field showed
that George Washington has made lit
tie or no progress since the Swarthmore
game on last Saturday week. Had the
Buff and Blue showed a little improve
ment in attack she might have rushed
the ball across Hopkins line instead of
making weak attempts at field goals
whenever the bali was within scoring
distance.
Georgetown expected TO go down be-
fore Swarthmore. Today Coach Reilly
will begin preparation for next Satur-
days game at Pittsburg with Washing
ton and Jefferson. George Washington's

a game between the Newarks. of Balti-

coran Cadets for the championship of the
District but they never got together
because of difference in the rules, Car
roll holding out for the A. A L. rules
and the Corcorans for a set of their
own devising.
A Handy Team.
The Newarks were a handy team in
Baltimore last season, and played II
nunSoer of games with Washington or
ganizations. These contests were al
ways full of action. and were among the
hardest in which teams from the Capt.
tai figured They have been strengthen
cd this season, and showed their mettle
on Saturday night by beating the Bel
Vederes OF Baltimore
A feature tomorrow night will be Il
fifteen-minute wrestling bout between
halves, in which Howard Foley will al
tempt TO retrieve the honors he lost on
Friday night. when he was downed by
Dixie in a preliminary TO the Young
Monday Calvin bout. Dixie threw Foley
on Friday. and now the Irish grappler
wants revenge.

similar diversions, there will be dancing.
