DOPE UPSET in
EAST SATURDAY
Washington Jefferson. Fittsburg,
Lafayette, and Cornell
Show Strength.

The football results Saturday con
tanned more big surprises than have
been sprung in many years. The big
gest surprise, of course, was the hard
fought game between Harvard and
Washington and Jefferson. The w
and J.. bunch led the big Crimson un'
til the last part of the game, and
Harvard was fortunate to push over
the touchdown that brought them a
10 to 9 victory. Harvard, of course,
vas without the services of Brickley,
Mahan and Logan, but Haughton has
been claiming all year that he had
substitutes plenty able to take the
places Of these men. Brickley is out
of the game for good, undergoing an
operation appendicitis on Satur-
day. This will be a big blow to the
Crimson, as the entire attack was
built around Brickley.
corneiI-c carlisle.
Another surprise was the defeat Of
Carlisle by Cornell. This 81 to 0 vic
tory for the Ithacans Proves that
there has been a reawakening of the
fighting spirit since the big Read team
vas defeated by Colgate and Pitts
burg. Carlisle. however, is weaker
this year than for many years.
Penn-Lafayette.
Little Lafayette, in holding the big
team to a scoreless tie,
showed that the Philadelphians are
weaker this year than last, when they
were defeated by both Michigan and
Cornell.
Pittsburg-Navy
The football fortunes of Pittsbure
are certainly on the upgrade. Their
victory w Cornell was the first bis
stroke, but when they defeated the
Navy last Saturday, 10 to g., they
showed real class, which will entitle
them to no little consideration.
In the West.
Most of the western teams played
true to form Saturday. 1t was ex-
that Chicago's victory over
Northwestern would be decisive, and
the % to 0 win was, therefore, not
much of a surprise. Illinois showed
great strength by trimming Indiana,
81 to 0, and it is noticeable that ILL
nois has showed remarkable progress
last season and this.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
BY scoring almost at will against
the usually strong Marquette outfit.
Juneau's Wisconsin machine proved
that it is stronger than has been gen
orally believed. The 48 to 0 count
is certainly good evidence of a strong
system Of attack, and several new
men showed up as stars on the de-
tense. The methods of Juneau have
been criticized more or less for the
last year, but this years team may
vindicate him.. It would seem that
a good coach for the line is the add
ton needed worse than-anything else
at Wisconsin.
Michigan.Vanderhilt.
Owing to the fact that the Michi-
gan-Vandenbilt game was played on a
very muddy field. Michigan's % to 8
victory over the Colonies is not a full
estimate of the Wolverines strength,
although it shows on its face that
Yost's team this year has just as
strong IN attack as in 1913, perhaps
stronger, and that, the defense is
certainly stronger. Michigan made
three fumOles, IN account of the mud.
that lost her as many to%uchdowns.
BY a field goal from the 25-yard line,
Splawn showed that he will have the
edge over Harvard on the S1st, now
that Erickley is out of the game, and
Maulbetch proved his wonderful abil
ity as a line plunger.
'Notre DANES Offense.
BY simply annihilating Rose Poly
los to O, Notre Dame gave a beautiful,
specimen of her offensive strength
Rose Poly is not much.of a team, but
such a tremendous pile.up of score
goes to show that the Catholics have
perfected a system of attack far su
perior to that which enabled them tt
beat the Army last year. When Eich
enlaub and Company get, busy witt
Yale, the Bulldog is due to receive
some wallops that will hurt.
