BIT TfRNfSS IS
SHOWN IN GAME
BY ARMY'S Team
Victory for Carlisle Won by
Brilliant Work Of Jim
Thorpe, Worlds Greatest
Athlete.

West Point Nov. s.-Jim Thorpe,
champion all around athlete Of the
world, defeated the West Point eleven
here this afternoon In a bitterly con-
tested game that was marked by near
rioting, rough work, smuggling and
general display of bitterness such as
has seldom been seen on the gridiron.
Score: Carlisle, 81; West Point, 6.
Jim Thorpe had some help. Arcasa.
his partner half back, was at his side
most of the time and there were nine
other Indians behind him but 1t was
admitted to be personal victory for
Thorpe. This mighty redskin, who
brought back for Uncle Sam the high
est prize offered in the Olympic games
in Sweden, today took the scalps OF
Uncle Sans boys in gray. 1t was
Thorpe, Thorpe all the way through.
The big Indian was singled out as the
object of the fiercely fighting cadets.
He was half knock ed out several times.
and once was dragged from a scrim-
mage totally unconscious. Water was
poured on his head and in few mo-
ments the superb physical machine re-
sponded and he was on his feet agai 1
as good as ever.
Time and time again Thorpe out
speeded, out-dodged and out-generaled

| dragged down and it was plain that no
cadet displayed tenderness in handling

tics they could not overcome.

when bad blood was shown. Powell.

was down. Devore sprang upon hirl
with all his weight. and was immedi-
ately taken off the field.
Bergie made the first touchdown for
the Indians. Arcasa made the next
three. Each of these touchdowns fol-
lowed masterful gains by Thorpe and
usually when the ball went over Thorpe
was ahead of it, or beside 1t. fighting
the way clear. Thorpe kicked three
goals. He missed the last, but it was
so dark when he made the trial that
he could not see the goal posts.
Eight West Point substitutes were
used.

Pennsylvania and Michigan's invaders
clashed on Franklin Field and Pennsyl-
vania, fighting with its back against
the wall. came from behind and lit
orally swept Michigan off its feet in a
triumphant final flourish. by q to 81.
Tonight. in the Quakers' Hall Of
Fame another niche has been carved.
Another hero's name goes sounding
down the corridors. Fifteen thousand
rooters shouted that name-Marshall-
and bore down from the stands to carry
its owner off the field.
One point was the slender thread on
with Michigans apparent success
was hanging, and Marshall snapped 1t.
On his own 40-yard line he received
Thompson's punt. Michigan's forwards
tore at the Pennsylvania. Marshall
slipped past his first assailant, thwart-
ed his next, and evaded his third. His
feet flew over the green. Behind him
followed his three opponents. In front
stood a lone sentinel He flung him
self at Marshall and missed.
Pennsylvania had swept aside defeat
and planted her banners on Michigan's
ramparts. Wild, delirious cheer!na

the stands and flooded the field, voic

WAITING GAME IS
PLAYED BY YALE
Brown Is Defeated by Old
Eli Eleven by Score
of 10 to O.

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 9.-Yale this
afternoon beat Brown, 10 to 0. Yale
willingly played waiting game and 1t
look ed as though the coaches thought
q score could be made when 1t was
necessary and that there was no need
of risking injury to the players. Brown
showed much strength in her line and
held Yale for downs at times. Flynn
at full back for Yale and Crowther at
quarter for Brown were the individual
stars of their teams. Flynn scored the
only touchdown made near the end Of
the third period and made several Of
his sensational broken field runs
Crowther's handling OF punts and
broken field running and tackling was
fully equal to that of Flynn.
Yale's second score came in the final
period following one Of the few sue
cessful forward passes of the game
when Pumpelly. who had replaced
Flynn, kicked goal from the 10-yard
line. The lineup:

CONSOLIDATED EXCHANGE.

Indications early showed in the market
on the Consolidated Stock Exchange that
the refusal Of the Senate TO override the
Pr sidepts veto OF the steel bill had
largely lost its effect over night. As the
session progressed prices suffered gen
eral decline with the trading becoming
active as the market lost ground. stop
loss orders were uncovered in several d.
rectiOns adding 10 the selling pressure.
Considerably more than one-half OF the
business on the $50 o'clock opening call
was IN Steel. That stock was active on
the call, go shares then selling at ~
and 90 shares at IA, the latter being
the final call price and comparing with
a New York Stock Exchange closing quo
tation on Friday OF 74ls. and 10 o'clock
opening on that exchange OF l44s. The
trading list was broad with 50 stocks

THE CROP MARKETS
Grains Lose an Early Up.Turn
Coffee Still Gains.

Rains in the Northwest and a bulge In
prices In Liverpool were responsible for
an early rise OF 's9s. cent in the wheat
market. The upturn drew out a SEEM
ingly heavy long interest. which had been
carried over from Fridays bulge and
was looking for profits. and this. with a
firm belief in a full crop OF spring wheat,
gave a bearish tone to the trading, and
prices were down at the finish about a
cent from the high point OF the day and
Aqs cent under Fridays close. Corn
followed the lead of wheat. opened h113
cent up, gave way with rush. and with
considerable liquidation on the decline
closed Il. cents off on the September op-
ton and 2id7s cent on the general list
Oats also lost an early gain under the
influence OF heavy country offerings ana
closed at unchanged to "a cent down.
Coffee felt the same influences which
controlled the market on Friday, ana,
under a fair buying movement, amounting
to IS. go bags for the short session, gained
I to 10 points over the close OF Friday.
Belief in the existence of large Euro
pean short interest is thought TO account
for much OF the recent firmness, as re-
ports OF crop complaints in Brazil are not
taken seriously here.
