Wrong With
Redskins This Year?

Do you know that the greatest
ruzzle OF the present football year TO
many followers OF gridiron sport Is
the poor showing made by the Car
Isle indians? The question has been
often repeated this year. What's the
matter with Carlisle?' and even
Glenn Warner, the coach, Is said 10
be unable to explain the situation.
Not I'm the memory OF the writer has
the team made such miseranie
showing.
The aborigines In the past found
the early teams on the schedule the
easiest sort OF opponents. Not SO
this year. as the Redmen have suf-
fered four defeats and held 10 very
low scores by other aggregations. In
the eight games played to date the
Indians have scored but 45 points.
while opponents have Tailed 50. ~

Of an eleven for Carlisle. was only

beaten by one touchdown In the sec
ond game OF the year. while West
Virginia Wesleyan held the Indians
to q to o count. Lehigh's eleven
turned the tables on Warmers pro-
teges when II won 81 TO 6. The In
dams In the fifth game OF the season
received an awful beating at the
hands OF Cornell, when 81 points
were scored while the Carlisle play
ers were scoreless. To put on the
touches. Pittsburgh won 10

cuse, "a to g.. A most disastrous tale.
The strangest part of II all Is that
the Indian eleven at the outset Of the
1914 year appeared to be quite as
as the 1919 victorious
squad. May be our old friend Pop"
Warner will tell us some day why
this unusual reversal Of form.
