 The Carlisle Indian scoring ma chine is busy grinding out the points on the football field. and ,of the 'elevens that have played three o. more games 1t has not only scored the most points but averaged mo.e points game. The Indians have played more games than any other team and for that reason might easily lead in the point total without that fact meaning anything But they also lead In more convincing proof of scoring activity points averaged to game. Their point collection has no especial significance otherwise as per- tains to other teams, for common op- ponents haven't. been met often enough to. draw any fair comparisons. Even if that were true the; element of meeting common opponents at diff ferent periods of the latter's develop ment often accounts for differences in comparative scores. The Indians, however, did meet Syracuse only a week later than Yale met the latter and made seven more points against them than Yale did. Yale, on the other hand, carried the ball across the Syracuse goal line, which the In- dians weren't able to do.
 Twenty-four of Carlisle's 126 points are due to goals from the field, and in that manner of adding to the total the redskins easily excel. They generally are at the top, too, or near 1t, in points. Williams has done the best average scoring next to Car lisle, but has played in only two games and made all her points in one, of those. Brown really comes next to Carlisle with an average ol 21 points to game. Annapolis is next, then Pennsylvania, then Dart mouth. Harvard leads Yale in total points, but has played one more game. Yale and Princeton have the same total, 39, each having played three games. Yale has scored in all three of her games while Princeton was unable to score in one of hers.
 Reckoning touchdowns from the totals, Carlisle has made the eQuiva- lent of shade of more than four touchdowns game. Brown and An- napolis have averaged about three a game. Harvard, Yale and Princeton have each averaged a shade over three, with Yale and Princeton hay ing fraction the better of Harvard. Pennsylvania's average is about tho same, with Dartmouth's average a trife better than Harvard, Yale, Princeton or Pennsylvania. The Navy has been going along at an even clip and has averaged 3 Ia touch- downs game. The Navy's scoring has been noticeably even--1S points in one game and 22 in each of the other two. West Point has averaged 4lk touchdowns game for two games. These figures are all com puted, on the basis of six points for q touchdown, the assumption being that goals were kicked from tho tohchdowns. That wasn't always the case in reality. For instance, of Yale's seven touchdoyns to date three were not converted into goals.
 Among the teams that haven't been scored on are Harvard, Yale. Princeton, Pennsylvania, West Point, Annapolis, Dartmouth, Lafayette and Lehigh. Brown, Cornell and Carlisle have been scored on.
