set the ball rolling with line smaShes
until Hover was sent around the right
end for the first touchdown.
In the first half Hover caught a punt
and shot through the broken Central
field 60 yards Tor his second touch
down.
Central threatened Gauaudets goal only
once. when Hunt made a 35-yard end
run from midfeld,
Gallaudet paid dearly for her victory,
as In this game Battste, the Indian quar-
ter back, while on a quarter back run, fell
heavily, dislocatng his left elbow. Tho
accident happened Just after Battiste had
scored a touchdown. following a brilliant
55-yard run. This injury may keep the

tanned a badly injured leg in this contest.

NO ARRANGEMENTS YET
FOR FUNERAL OF CLYDE FITCH

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
NNEW YORK, Sept. 6.-No definite de-
tails for returning to America the body
Of Clyde Fitch, the playwright, who died
Saturday at Chalons Sur Marne, France,
have been made, but it IS expected the re-
mains viii be brought back and inferred
here.
New York newspapers to-day unite in
paying high tribute to Mr.. Fitch declaring
that while he was not a great dramatst
his work was of the kind that pleased the
theatre-goers and made life more worth
the living.
Although Fitch probably made more
money than any other American play
wright he did not die wealthy. He had
made many unwise real estate invest
ments which. it is said, will not be sold
for nearly the price. lie had flied his town
house, 113 East Fourtieth street with rare
works Of art. but his friends believe that
IN nearly every case he paid too much.
once he set his heart on an art treasure
he got It. no matter how excessive the
price.
