DOG WINS A FOOTBALL GAME
Members Of Columbia Squad Are In
spired by Sight Of Canine Attack
Ing Red Hot Poker.

A remarkable turning of a game
between the halves occurred at Ithaca
In 1905. Cornell led Columbia by six
to nothing when the teams returned
to the dressing rooms. Columbia had
not recovered from a wearing game
with Princeton the week before.
Many Of the men were overturned.
There was distinct feeling Of the
hopelessress OF It all when the play
ers lay down upon the floor and
benches. Only Bill, a white bull ter
rier mascot, showed signs Of livelin-
ess. 1t was cold In the dressing
room and q trainer shook the ashes
in the stove. He used a poker, the
end Of which became red hot. When
finally he laid down the metal rod the
red whitened. but the heat remained.
Bill, deciding that the poker was to
be played with like stick. caught the
heated end In his mouth. Instantly
his lips scared and turned black. Bill
only shook the poker harder. Two
men grabbed him and tried to force
him to open his mouth. But Bill
fought back and finally they had to
choke him before he would loosen his
grip. 1t was then that Coach Morley
nudged Captain Fisher and pointed to
the dog. Catching the idea, Fisher
sprang to his feet and built up q
speech around Bill. He compared
Bills nerve to the teams and asked
the men II they were not ashamed
OF themselves. His closing sentence
was: Just play for Bill, Bill, Bill"
When Columbia returned to the
field. Bill, yelping furiously, led the
way. All through the half the team
heard him barking from the side.lines.
Said Won Saltza, the big tackle. after
the game:
I'VE heard every yelp, and 1t sim.
ply drove U.S."
Also. Bills yelping was so good that
Columbia won out, twelve to six
