Saturday, November 7, viii be a day
long remembered by football followers
Surprises galore occurred. Dartmouth
win not forget it in hurry, for its
team, picked 10 fall before Princeton
trimmed the later on the eve of the
latter's most important game of the
year. Yale, the only team of conse-
quenes in the East that knew what a
clean record was, was almost beaten by
brown--Mck and little more saving
IL. Holdings on the part of the Proyi-
dence men when Mckay was running
down the hsld for n third touchdown
prevented the extra score. Then, again,
careless handling Of a punt-out after a
touchdown had been made, robbed
Brown of a Shance 10 get an extra and
deciding point by a goal from touch
down. That Brown played Yale to a
lie after Harvard mad outplayed the
former Just a week ago cannot arouse
any oversupply of enthusiasm in New
Haven. though there is consolation
probable in the fact that the Tigers"
did not show up so well as had been
expected. Harvard's wonderful work
against the Indians was one Of the big
things of the day. In almost every de-
partmeut Of the game the crimson had
Il on the redskins, whaling through the
line for long gains and displayed a
stonewall defense, CALLING to its oppo.
nents. Twice Carlisle had chances, but
it could not tear through for the needed
distance. Harvard certainly is showing
great power.
Dartnouth's work against Princeton
and Browns against Yale snow what
a fine contest is missed by the rivals
not being able TO come together Satur-
day for the first time this season Dart
mouth displayed something closer to a
regular lineup than in any other game.
Sterwin VINO did some goal kicking last
season, tried his hand and his goal from
the field in the irst half gave his team
the four points needed to take the
game. Brown has played close games
with Yaia, but not since the 6 to 6
game Of 1898 has it done 80 we'll For
four years, beginning with 1898, Brown
scored on Yale. Yale-B Brown scores
have been: 1895, 6-6; 1896, 1875; 1897,
1914; 1898, 22-6; 1902, 100; 1904
20 0; 1905, no; 1905, SO; 1907, $50.
The Springfield training school fur
nished another surprise by holding the
army to to 5 score. It's quite q
job to score on West Point, and the
fact that DR.. McCurdy's eleven was abel
to do it speaks well for his fine coach
ing. Amherst held Cornell to one
touchdown, while Williams was held to
a tie BY Vermont. These also belong in
tine list of surprises. Again, few ex-
pected Colgate to beat Syracuse. But
the navy's victory over Villanova, Penn
syvaaia over Lafayette. TTnity's
West, Michigan showed great ofense
against Kentucky state. Next Satur-
day it will meet Pennsylvania. Wis
ccnsin stayed in the ring for the play
