With Captain Hamilton still on the
side lines, but declared to be in condl-

cheered by their shippers words OF en-
couragement, accounted for the eleven

Dugan Strong and Sure.
Notre Dame started the game with
out the services of Eichenlaub. But
he was not missed. In his place was a
square jawed giant-Dugan, by name
who was the equal of any man on the
field. Many time he skrted the
tanks of the Army for runs which
varied in distance from 10 70 IS yards
He was fast and sure of foot, and
picked his openings with rare skill.
Later, when Eichenlaub did get into
the game he failed TO show anything
better than Dugan had already shown.
The main asset Of the Notre Dame
team lay in its ability to run the ends.
The backfield was made up of sprinters,
and they had the principles of inter
ference down TO u fine art.
The Army ends were taken out time
and again, and il was the secondary de-
fence that warded off disaster. With
a weak line, of course, Bergman had
only to rely on his speed, but this was
not enough.
No story of the game would be com
plete without reference to the wonder
full work of Mills. who replaced Bau-
jan. The way this raw-boned son of
the prairies smashed into end runs,
scattering the interference and getting
the runner, or broke up bucks off tackle
was treat. 1t was next TO impossible
TO get him out on a play, as the West
Point backs found out. He was swift
in covering punts and sure death in the
open field tackling.
Kelleher and Pliska, who divided the
honors at left halfback, were also
prominent for Notre Dame.

LAFAYETTE ELEVEN

Winning Points.
tBy Telegraph to The Tribune.I

Easton, Penn, Nov. THE Lafay-
cite football team decisively defeated
its Allentown rival. the Muhlenberg
eleven, in the game on March Field,
this afternoon. The score was "a to 3.
Muhlenberg opened the game in
dashing style and made its three
points in the first three minutes Of
play. On the second play, after the
kickoff, Caskey slid off tackle for
thirty yards, and when Lafayette held,
Hayes dropped back to the 20-yard line,
from which point he kicked a place
ment goal. Even this did not arouse
Lafayette, and Muhlenberg outpiayed
Lafayette throughout the first period.
In the second period Lafayette
showed the first fash of offensive
strength. At the same time, the de-
fence assumed its usual soldity and
from that time on il was simply q
question of how much Lafayette could
score. A forward pass, Weldon to
Lerch, first down by Furry, an end
run by Weldon, and the ball was on
the 1-yard line, from which point Lerch
carried the ball over on recovering
tumble.
Lafayette did not score in the third
period, but played good football. In
the last session Weldon went over after
march down the field on straight
football, Dick Diamond intercepted a
forward pass on the 22-yard line, and
scored again. Maxfield kicked goal
from placement on the 20-yard line.

Good and Bad Football
Characterizes the Play Be-
tween Evenly Matched
Western Elevens.
fBy Telegraph 70 The Tribune. ]

Pittsburgh, Nov. THE most impor-
tant football game in this section took
place here to-day between Washington
and Jefferson College and the Univer-
sity of Pittsburgh, being won by the
former team by score of ID TO 10:
The contest was featured by good and
bad football.
Pittsburgh exceeded the expectations
of her supporters, who did not expect
that Washington and Jefferson's line
would be crossed. If Pittsburgh had
been able TO take advantage of the col
lege teams mistakes different tale
would have been told and the football
championship would have been more
complicated.
On the other hand, Washington and
jefferson was guilty of some costly
fumbling. which might have cost the
team the game had not Collins, the
Pittsburgh fullback, very obliglngly
done the same for them. Young, Good
win and Patterson were the mountains
which could not be surmounted by the
Pittsburgh defence or offence to-day,
the terrific centre smashes OF Young
being bewildering to the university
players.
The first period of play saw the
teams nbout evenly matched, and while
Washington and Jefferson made its
first downs mostly on fine passing on
the pert Of Goodwin, whose aim was
wonderfully true, Pittsburgh did NOT
make first down. The team got out
of danger through its line-holding on
the last down. but never got far away
with the ball. The visitors lost the
services of their wonderful little right
halfback, Red Fleming, as he was oadly
used up in the carly part OF the period,
He came back later, but was OF IttIe
use to his team. n,L
In the second period Pittsburgh
worked the ball down the field on some
short end runs. and Hastings was sue,
cessful in an attempt at a neid goai
from the 30-yard line.

Rutgers and Syracuse
Battle TO Tie Score

TO the 2S-yard line, where a pass, Sey-
mour to Shufelt, netted twelve yards.
Kingsley then skirted for sixteen yards
and a touchdown. wilkinson kicked
the goal.
Rutgers was not behind long. After
Bracher had assaulted the line with
success, the first of the wide open plays
were tried, along with skin tackle
charges and end runs, which brought
the ball in Rutgers possession to mid
field. An end run, two forward passes
and a Syracuse penalty gave Rutgers
the ball on the 4-yard line, on second
down. Then Bracher vent through the
left side of the line for touchdown
oh three plays. Tallnan kicked goal.
Syracuse Scores Fast.
Syracuse took four plays to make its
second touchdown. Kingsley took the
kickoff from Nash and returned il TO
the l0-yard line. Sew u and Wilkin-
son went around the ends for twelve
wards each. Then Rose drove off
tackle, for sixty-six yards, Woodruff,
a New Jersey boy, going all the way
with him, and picking off the would-be
tacklers. Wilkinson kicked the goal
The play se--sawed during all the
second quarter, neither team showing
much pep. When the second half
opened, however, the talking of the
coaches took effect Syracuse started
off with a rush after taking the kick,
but a l5-yard penalty took much of the
life out of its play after four downs.
After Syracuse had given poor ex-
hibition and forced itself back to its
own goal posts Wilkinson punted TO
Bracher, who returned to the 3l-yard
line. Syracuse was penalized fifteen
yards for tripping, giving the ball to
Rutgers on the 22yard line. TODD
then tore through centre for eighteen
yards, and in two plays through the
line Bracher went over for a touch
down. Tallman kicked the goal.
