Baltimore, oct. 19-Mount Washington
barely nosed out victory over GaIlaudet
here yesterday IN a very clean and evenly
contested battle.
Stonecraus, who played the star game
for the mOuntaineers. went through Cal
laudet's left side in the last minute Of
play for the touchdown that won the
game.
In the first half neither side could gain
consistently. which resulted in numerous
exchanges Of punts. mostly in Gallaudets
territory. Bailess tried for a drop kick
from the 3O-yard line, but VinsOn blocked
the ball, causing 1t to go wide.
In the second half. starting from their
own 1O-yard line, Gallaudet carried the
ball steadily down the field TO Mount
Washingtons 4G-yard line, where it was
fumbIed
After the ball had changed hands sew
eral times, Bailess punted md Mount
Washington captured the ball on Gallau-
det's l0-yard line. from where Morrow
and Mealy advanced It to the 4-yaTd
mark. StOnecraus scored on the next
play.
Stonecraus was Mount Washington's
only reliable ground gamer, and O'Don-

det from being scored on in the first half.

Princeton, n, J., Oct. l9.-Washington
and jefferson came to this town to-day
with express intention of putting 1t all
over Princeton, but the Tigers simply
walloped the visitors till the final count
showed the score to be 20 TO O. Even
then the whistle saved the visitors from
further trouble. The Western Pennsyl-
vanians had caused some concern by the
extraordinary reports which had preceded
them. Their squad had the weight, but
team play was lacking to a great degree
and they were restless and unsteady Ker-
berger proved great drawback, because
he dived into plays before they began and
was penalized individually 20 odd yards
for so doing.
Princeton used more substitutes than
she has hitherto employed in any one
game. The Orange and Black left wing
was lamentably weak and the visitors
plugged from the holes through this side
sunny Price, captain and quarter
back of Washington and Jefferson,
worked hard and drove his team well,
but was completely showed under by the
all-around play of Eddie Dillon. Capt.
Mccormick. too, was a power through
out and ne did the bulk of the labor

Phillips assisting at center. In the stage
during the second half Mccormick bang
ed at the opposing frontier eight times
in succession. He gained, yard by yard,
and finally went over for a touchdown.
Kumler punted for the visitors but his
efforts were unequal to those Of either
Mccormick, Harlan, or Orr. Harlan ac-
complshed the delayed kick often. He
ran short distances, then booted, and
usually put the pigskin over the heads
of Price and KumleT.
The Pennsylvanian3 started with a
rush, sweeping through the line until the
leather lay close to Princeton's goal.
The Tigers held for downs and directly
reversed the issue, which resulted in a
laboriously gained touchdown by Nc
Cormick. Shortly after came the second
tally Then Harlan dropped the ball to
the 30-yard line and sent a pretty field
goal whirling between the posts. The
half ended with the score of 16 to O.
Altogether, Princeton made six touch
downs. kicked six goals from them, and
got drop kick.
