of a couple of hundred southerners and the waving of black and gold flags A few minutes later Vanderbilt was again within 30 yards of the Crimson goal posts. But Curlin's effort for another field goal failed by 10 yards
 The Vanderbilt team suffered severely from injuries and penalties. Captain Hardage was assisted to the side lines in the second period, and several other southerners were compelled to leave the game. Nearly all their penalties were for offside play, due to their ag- gressiveness but three other penalties were inflicted for delaying the game while injured players were being sub stituted. In the last half of the game Harvard waived this rule and permitted the visitors all the time needed to re- pair damages. Harvard was also heavi- ly penalized principally for holding, while 40 yards were lost at one time when Mcclure was sent from the game for rough play.

FIGHTING BRILLIANTLY TO END
 THE ECOMMODORES MEET DEFEAT
HARVARD CRIMSON CONQUERS SOUTHERNERS g TO IN A GRUELLING CONTEST - COL LINS SCORES POINTS FOR VANDY-GREAT SCRIMMAGE

Cambridge, Mass, November 9.-Har- ward sent the Vanderbilt football team back to the southland today with to defeat, but the Commodores left behind them q reputation for speed and versa tility in attack and stubbornness in de- fense that will be remembered.
 Using a team made up almost wholly of substitutes, Harvard scored a touch down and field goal in the second and fourth periods, respectively. Crimson er- TOTS permitted the southerners in the third period to get within drop kicking distance of Harvards goal and Curlin lifted the ball over for three points.
 As usual Harvard tried out the strength of it's defense in the first period, kicking usually on the second down. It was not until after five minutes of play in the second period that Harvard's attack reached It's full stride and then the ball was carried down the field 35 yards for a touchdown. Vanderbilt came back strong in the third period, scoring a field goal and outplaying the Crimson until the two last minutes. Then Harvard stiff fened and the ball was carried to the four yard line. The strength of the Van derbilt defense proved too strong for the Harvard attack and after three rushes goal from the field from the 22 yard line.
 Brilliant Forward Pass
 Vanderbilt brought out in the last 10 minutes of play nearly her full repertoire of offensive tactics. Among the most sue cessful plays was delayed forward pass in which the ball was handled by four men and finally snatched down from the air by Robbins for a gain of 9 yards. It was one of the most brilliantly executed plays seen in the stadium since Cornell uncovered a triple forward pass three years ago.
 The Vanderbilt attack was a well judged variety of end runs, delayed passes, fol- lowed by plunges through big holes in the Harvard line. and numerous attempts at the forward pass, only two of which, however were successful. The Harvard defense for the Vanderbilt plays would crumple up for couple of scrimmages then the Crimson forwards would fathom the attack and the opposing backs would be thrown for losses.
 The southerners showed their mettle in the first period and while the play was unproductive of points, three first downs were scored and the rushes near ly always. netted three or four yard gains. The Vanderbilt kicking depart ment, however, was weak and Harvard more than made up by the fine punt ing of Felton for the rushing gains of the Commodores.

George W. Nelson departed this
life at the home of his parents on
Pierce street Friday, Feb. %, after
an illness of many months.
He was the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
j. H. Nelson, who moved to this
city from Argos about two years
ago.
George was born at Argos Dec. 8,
1892, which was just little more
than nineteen years ago. He had
been a member of the Argos high
school, and several years ago, united
with the Methodist church at that
place. When the family removed to
Plymouth, George remained in Ar
Cos, and was employed there in a
store. On account of failing health
he gave up his position last June,
and came home.
He was an excellent young man,
always kind and dutiful to his par
ents, and good to others everywhere.
He had won for himself a host of
friends who mourn their loss.
Besides his parents, he is survived
by five sisters and three brothers.
Services we're held at the home at

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Householder
Whited was born in South Whitley
May %, 1857 and departed this. life
Feb. %, 1912, aged "a years and
months. Mrs. Whited was the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Rheuben
Householder, who. moved to this
county from Whitley county in the
early days, and it was near Lapaz
that the deceased grew to mature
life. She was united in marriage to
Joseph Boyer, and to this union
were born two children, Mrs. E. E.
Marvin of Haskell, Texas, and James
E. Boyer of this city. The husband
and father died about twenty-six
years ago. On Sept. Is, 1888 she
was again united in marriage to
Stephen Whited of Argos. To this
union was born one son, William E.

About five years ago she = became
afflicted and continued to grow
worse. One week ago they decided
to 90 to the Soldiers Home at
Lafayette, Mr.. Whited being an
honored soldier, of the Civil war. 1t
was the earnest desire of the chill

be cared for by them but no avail, as
Mrs. Whited hoped to regain her
health by the careful nursing that
she would receive there and she de-
sired also to be near her aged
mother, Mrs. Anna Bushman, who
is at the Home. But the journey
proved too great and as soon as ar
