CAMBRIDGE. Mass. Oct. 9.-Corneli
PLAYED around Harvard from start to
finish yesterday. and won 10 to 0. 1t
was the Crimson's first defeat In three
years. and the first time in the history
OF football between the two schools
that the Ithacans have won.
Shiverick. OF Cornell. Joined the COM
pany OF this seasons football stars
when he stepped In for Captain Barrett
who was injured in the first period. and
outkicked the great Mahan. The latter
has been touted as n second Bricklcy
Barrett was taken from the field un-
conscious. but later forced the trainers
to carry him back on a stretcher. from
which he watched his teammates romp
on to n Cornell holiday. They celebrated
swarminR over the field for their IA
nous snake dance and shouting until
they were literally exhausted.
Shiverick was marvellous at all stages
OF the game. His punting was perha ps
the best seen in the East this season.
his 2S-yard drop kick was perfect. and
he was tower Of strength on the de-
fense.
with the first defeat In years staring
them In the face the Harvard machine
frightened and put up a desperate fight.
but Cornell was full OF fight and stop
was deadenlng to the Crimson hopes.
A thrilling fight for a score In the last
period met a wall OF stone.
Cool. who acted as captain after Bar
rett was out. and Mueller shared hon
ors with Shiverick in the victor's play.
Harvard showed weak both on offense
and defense.
harvard felt the sting OF the mighty
Barrett before he was carried off the
field unconscious. A tumble by the
Crimson gave the lthacans the ball on
Harvard's o5-vard line. ShiveriCk made
five wards through the line, and Collins
added four more. Barrett again was
called and he responded by putting the
ball on Harvard's lo-yard Inc.
with her back to the wall. the Grim
son goth rough and drew n 5-yard PEN
atty. and on the next play Barrett
smashed his way over for the first Cor
nell victory In history.
Harvard was partially paralyzed. For
the first time In years. a Harvard foot
ball team was battling against a bet
ter team-a team that was not OF me

feared, never was figured to win.

NO BREAK LOOKED
FOR At WEST POINT
Exceeding Roughness Is Re-
srettab!e, Declares One Of
Army Coaches.

WEST POINT. n Y. Oct. :4-Tn
spite OF the exceeding roughness which
characterized the football game here
between West Point and Georgetown
University yesterday there is no In
tention to break Off playing between
the two teams.
One Of the coaches Mt West Point
made this statement today. and while
he admitted that the roughneck work OF
both sides was n noticeable and re-
grettable feature OF the contest he de-
clared that nothing more would be said
about 1t officially.
The exhibition was the toughest ever
seen on the field here: 1t reminded the
spectators more OF free slugging
match than OF a football contest be-
tween gentlemen.
1t is the general feeling here that
the sooner the game Is forgotten the
better 1t will be for all parties con:
cerned.
While Georgetown suffered defeat
OF 10 to 0. this Is not regarded as any
excuse for the conduct OF Its players.
and the West Point PLAYERS are re-
garded as entitled to even less excuse.

Pimlico has raised its purses to $500
