COLUMBIA WAS NOT ROUGH

Columbia's football players resent the

Yale's players IN last Saturdays game.
They say that the game was no rougher
than that with Princeton, and although
Cooney and H. Dillon were hurt I'm the
game no such reports came from the New
Jersey town.
As matter OF fact, they say, the Yale
COACHES took Jones out when his strained
leg was slightly hurt, because they real
lied that Columbia was 50 weak that
Hutchinson was good enough 70 run the
team. and they say that no attempt was
made TO cripple any players.
Columbia had the ball only a few times
in the whole game and despite all the
alleged roughness failed 10 gain when
they were on the attack or 70 stop Yale
when the visitors were on the offensive
AS 10 the matter OF there being no Yale
Columbia game next year. there was no
statement by Columbia. Nothing I'm the
line OF schedule-naking can be done by
either college until next year, when the
new managers OF both teams are elected.
