WAR FORCES GOLF
INTO BACKGROUND

New York, Nov, 4-For two years war
conditions have been gradually forcing
golf in England into the BACKGROUND, and
now, with practically all the players at
the front or preparing for the grim busi-
ness OF warfare, clubs converted into hos
pitsis and links into recreation grounds
for convalescent 'Tommies'' or for drill
grounds for the new armies, the knock
down blow has fallen, and even Golf Il
iustrated, the journal which for many
years has been ':the organ Of the game
In the British Isles, has been forced to
suspend publication.
The announcement comes as no surprise
to- those who have noted the trend of
events and seen that for weeks the pub
iishers have been obliged to reprint illus
trations and to devote the greater part Of
the reading matter to news of the game
emanating from this country. So for a
time Americans will lose track of the
great players with whom they have lived
In the spirit IL not In the flesh, and Of the
editor OF Golf Illustrated, Harold H. Hill
ten, who. as the American amateur cham
pion In 1911 and defender Of that title In
1912, Is bound to this country with even
stronger ties than those of the ordinary
treemasonry Of the links. ..:
Many Of Britain's best golfers have
given their lives for their country in the
great struggle: many more are back
home, nlaimed. Those who have still to
face the music have the heartfelt wishes
Of followers Of the game In this country
for speedy and safe return.

By CHARLES BR1cKLEY.

Cambridge. Mass. Nov. 4-Harvard's
football team, largely composed of substi-
tutes, ran up 81 to o score against Vi--
sinia here this afternoon. The Southern
crs were able to do very little against the
Haughton offensive. Minot and wilcox
repeatedly reeled on side tackle plays and
Bond and Burnham plugged the line with
an occasional end play for, substantial
gains
Harvard worked the forward pass but
once In the first half. but relied some
what more on that style in the second,
scoring one touchdown and several spec
tacular gains by this method Harvard
uncovered a new drop kicker and place
ment kicker in the person of Bond, who
came through on his only attempt with
neatly executed field goal from the
35-yard line and scored five goals from
touchdowns in as many tries.
The Crimson team showed as brilliantly
on the defensive rs in its offensive play.
Wheeler repeatedly broke through the line
and tackled Virginia for losses. Other
members of the team worked almost as
effectively as Wheeler, holding Virginia
to but four first downs during the entire
game.
Virginia's best offensive play was the
forward pass which they worked success
lively five times, but Harvard soon form
ed an adequate defense. Harvard's ends
and backs intercepting six of Virginias
forward passes.
Virginia sprang a surprise in working
a lateral pass on the kickoff which open
ed the second half. The receiving back
hurled the ball half way across the field
to one Of his mates near the side lines.

Of Washington, in a spectacular battle
here today, q to 13.
The cadets displayed a sensational
brand Of football, scoring two of their
touchdowns by an aerial attack that the
collegians were unable to stop. The deaf

but were not their match in cunning or
fight.
The cadets scored their first touchdown
three minutes after the kickoff, Campu-

to Horlacher. who raced across the line
The second touchdown was scored by
Martin after series Of smashes at the
line in which he. Campuzano and Sigel
tore the opposing line to shreds, Another
forward pass, Martin to Horlacher, that
sailed thirty-seven yards. resulted in the
third touchdown.
The fourth was scored by Campuzano

The game was replete with brilliant

The score stood Georgetown %, Army

Ties URSINUS team
Hateheites and Colleseville Eleven Play
Great Game on Hilltop Field.

George Washington played hosts to Ur-
sinus from Coliegeville, Pa. yesterday on
Georgetown Field, and held them at bay
during forty minutes of play, when the
final whistle blew the ball was in posses
sion of Ursinus in midfield with the score

Ursinus opened the game by kicking to
George Washington, who defended the
north goal. After trying to rush the ball.
George Washington was forced to kick
to Ursinus on its sS-yard line. On two
line smashes Ursinus was held for downs
and the ball went over to the Hatchetites
In midfeld.
On the defense George Washington was
stone wall, but lacked the drive to score
points. Time after time the backs
tried to smash through the line, but met
with stubborn resistance and stopped be-
fore they could gain very much ground.
The attack of the visitors was well
started. but II could not penetrate the
Hatchetites' line, and often the man car
rytng the ball was stopped behind the line
Of scrimmage. Only on rare occasions did
either team try the ends Richards, of
Ursinus. pulled on a pretty 3o-yard run
around right end, but on the next play
the visitors again attempted to smash the
line. and were held for downs.
Giacomo intercepted a forward pass
from the Ursinus half-back, and returned
the ball 20 yards before he was pushed
outside. On forward pass from Pepper
to Hefterman, George Washington gained
Is yards.
In rushing the ball Ursinus had a shade
the better OF the game. as il made six
first downs to the Hatchetites' FIVE, but
in the kicking department Hills held his
own with Ashenfelt Hills got his kicks
away high and with plenty OF twist, while
Ashenfelt had two of his blocked by the
hosts
Giacomo tried three drop kicks. but
missed the posts by a wide margin in all
attempts. Ashenfelt tried a goal from
placement, but II went under the bar, so
failed to count for his team.
Brown, Adams and Capt Clark were
the best of the visitors on the defense.
and carried the ball for most of the gains
made by the Ursinus eleven. Giacomo.
Hefferman and Capt Kills were a tower
Of strength to the Hatehetites on the de-
fense. Summary:

MOHAWKS TO MEET
HIGHLANDERS TODAY

The only game of any Importance to
be played locally today will be staged
at Seventeenth and D streets southeast
at p. m. the District champion Mo-
hawks meeting the Highland Athletic
Club. from Anacostia. ..t
This game should be better played than
the one Of last Sunday when the In
dams handily defeated the Wilkens Ath-
letic Club, Of Baltimore, by an over
whelming score. The team from across
the branch has been playing a very con-
sistent game for the greater part of the
season and while II Is not confidently
expected that they will come out on the
long end of the score, they nevertheless
win present the strongest lineup they
have shown in years and 1t would not
be surprising to see them hold the cham
pions to q close, II not a tie game.
These two elevens have been meeting
snnually and the Highlanders have the
frst time yet in which to score a victory
over their long-standiny rivals, and Coach
Turner, of the Mohawks, will take no
chances In the game this afternoon by
presenting any part Of his secondary line
up. The game should prove to be a
hard-fousht battle.

State COLLEGE Wins

College Park Eleven Hands Severe
Drubbing to St. John's-3l to 6.

Annapolis, Md, Nov. 4-The football
team Of Maryland State College scored
one Of the most signal victories In grid
iron history among State teams when II
buried their old rivals, st. Johns College.
in the annual contest here today under q
score Of 81 to 6. 1t was the largest score
that the Aggies ever rolled up against st.
Johns.
The College Park lads were looked upon
as winners. but It was not expected they
would romp away with the game by such
"a large margin. The local collegians, In
spite of the fact that they fought a
plucky game from start to finish, were
hopelessly outclassed. They also were
greatly outweighed by the Farmers. and
this advantage proved quite a factor in
the result
The Aggies drew first blood in the first
six minutes Of the game when they regis
tered q touchdown. The try for goal
was q failure. The cadets evened matters
up in the next minute, when, after some
brilliant open-held running by Plasnls
and Heise, the latter scored a touchdown.
Fsut after this the cadets did not again
seriously menace the "Aggies'" goal
line. The @first half ended with the score
standing-State. Is; st. Johns, 6.
Twice during the second half the Wis
itors invaded the cadets goal line, and
they were successful in one of the two
tries for goal. Fletcher and Brewer were
the bright, particular stars IN the Farm
crs' lineup. The former scored four of
the five touchdowns.
The Aggies with a fast ba aakfield COM
bination presented a concerted attack
and their line held strong In the pinches.
Locals at times showed some good offen-
sive work, but the forwards crumpled
before the attack Of their opponents.
