Eli SUCCESSFULLY
STANDS FIRST TEST
Yale Eleven Plays Well and
Defeats w. and J. in
Exciting Game

New Haven Conn, october 2S.-Yale
met it's first real test of the season sue
cessfully today by defeating Washington
and Jefferson, SO to IA, for the first time
in three years. The crowd of 10000 spec
tators was thrilled by the wonderful for
ward passing of the visitors and spectac-
ular runs by the Yale backs.
The PennsylvanianS attempted o. for
ward passes, 27 of which were completed
for a total of ga yards. Yale completed
five out Of six attempted passes for a
gain of As yards.
Yale made five touchdowns, kicked three
resultant goals and Legore contributed
a field goal from the 30-yard line. The
Blue started off with rush and at the
end of the second period it looked like c.
walk-over, but the visitors came back
strong and kept Yale on the defensive
for the rest of the game. They used the
forward pass almost exclusively, and
when the Yale defense solved one style
of the attack another variation was pro-
duced.
Yale easily scored a touchdown early
in the first period after Cary had gained
3 yards on a forward pass to the visitors
2o-yard line. Yale rushed the ball over
the line without delay. The goal was
kicked. At the end of the period Legore
had punted long to the visitors 3-yard
line, when the whistle blew. Score: Yale
z, Washington and Jefferson 0.
In the second period, Yale brought the
score to 80 points and at the same time
McCreight of the visitors, after making
so yards on four forward passes, went
over for touchdown, giving the visitors
7 points when the play was ended. Score
end second period: Yale 30, Washington
and Jefferson Z.
There was no scoring in the third
period. Washington and Jefferson re-
newed the passing game and once with
the ball on Yaie's 10-yard line. lost it on
downs. The visitors were very aggres
sive, but could not score and the figures
remained: Yale 80, Washington and JEFF
ferson Z.
The fourth period saw Washington and
Jefferson still aggressively fighting to
cross Yale's goal line They accom-
plished this once Yale got one touch
down but failed to kick goal and the final
score was Yale So, Washington and JEFF
ferson IA.

shut out by the Naval Academy here
today. The final score was % to 9.
The game was rough and was
marked by many penalties and minor
injuries.
The Georgia eleven played good
football in the first half. holding the
Middies on fairly even terms. but went
to pieces in the third period and, save
for the fine line plunging and punt
ing of Donnelly, were outplayed all
around,
The game was a scrappy one all the
way. both teams being full OF tight.
In the last minutes of play McLaws,
who had played o superb game for the
Georgians. and Jackson of Navy had
an encounter in the center of the grid
iron. Both were banished. While th1ve
were flashes of brilliant work by both
teams, the story of the game is not
difficult to record. Georgia's points
were the result of n pretty drop kick
by Donnelly from the 25yard line in

Eleven

Princeton, n. j., October 2S.-Although
completely outplayed at almost every
angle of the game Princeton defeated
Dartmouth here today to 8. Eddie
briggs, the Princeton fullback, was in
dividualy responsible for the victory of
the Princeton eleven. Dartmouth started
hard offensive drive toward the Prince
ton goal line in the third period. briggs
intercepted a long forward pass thrown
on Princeton's 30-yard line. and raced
along the margin of the side line the
remaining Go yards for touchdown. Tib-
bolt kicked the goal after the touchdown.
Dartmouth's score was made in the sec
ond period on placement kick by Cap
tain Garrish
During most of the four periods of
play Dartmouth had Princeton on the
defensive, struggling to defend her goal
line
A kicking duel, which lasted practi-
cally the entire first period, ensued be-
tween briggs and Thielscher after the
kickoff Princeton ends covered briggs
kick backs and the ball was for the
most part in Dartmouth's territory.
Dartmouth outplayed Princeton during
most of the second period. Trer recov-
cred tumble on Princeton's 30-yard line
and Dartmouth carried the ball to Prince
tons seven-yard line. A Dartmouth for
ward pass was intercepted behind the
goal line. An attempted drop-kick by
Tibbott on his own 47-yard line was
blocked Dartmouth started another
drive to Princetons goal and Garrsh
sent a placement kick over the bar from
Princetons 2S-yard line.
Princeton came back stronger in the
third period. Dartmouth fumbled badly.
briggs intercepted a long forward pass
on his own 30-yard line and ran along
the side lines 70 yards for a touchdown
Tibbott kicked the goal Later Prince
ton carried the ball to center on off tackle
plays to Dartmouth's five-yard line. An
incompleted forward pass then gave
Dartmouth the ball on their own 20-yard
line.
Dartmouth came back desperately in
the final period and had Princeton fight
ing gamely in her own territory A for
ward pass to Gerrish placed the ball
on Prncetons 16-yard line and briggs
again saved the day for Princeton by
intercepting another forward pass.
briggs kicked out of bounds in the last
few minutes of play, placing Dartmouth

University October 2S-(Special. ITO
Redwood Field to meet the Sewanee
Tiger in annual clash for gridiron supre
macy, Coach Kelley of Alabama will
take the most evenly balanced the best
trained, and the most powerful football
machine that has represented the Grim
son in the past 10 years. A glance at the
above figures will warrant the assertion
as to avoirdupoise and the honest opin-
ions of critics who have followed the for
tunes and affairs of the Crimson since the
days of DR.. Pollard are given as au-
thority for the statement of prowess
Alabama has not by any means the
heaviest eleven in the south The eleven
which in all probability will face the
Purple and White when the refereee' S
whistle shrieks the beginning of the bat
tie, will average fully five pounds lighter
than the total average of the Alabama
squad. But the machine which will carry
the Crimson colors will be almost per-
fectly balanced and will carry goodly
sufficiency of weight Not a >aan will
weigh less than $50 pounds, and not one
will weigh over 1879. And this weight is
not in the line to offset a light back
field, not in the backfeld at the expense
of spindly line. Every man carries a
good average weight. The Crimson as d
whole is sufficiently heavy to resist a
plunging attack and at the same time is
light enough to have one of the fleetest
machines in Dixie.
AS to experience, Coach Kelley has eight
warriors who have served through grid
iron sea sons before and 10 who are seeing
collegiate athletic duty for the first time
in their careers. But for the most part
these new men are well versed in grid
iron ore and those who are not have the
advantage of the able tutoring of Coach
Kelley, whose guiding hand has smoothed
away all raggedness of play

machine was built around the giant
tackle. This season Kelley has no one
man team, but he has q machine COM
posed of Ii men whose general ability
more than offsets that of the machine
built to assist Bully in fighting its bat
ties.
From Tuscaloosa the biggest crowd that
ever journeyed to Birmingham to witness
football battle will watch next Satur-
days battle. Approximately 800 students
will go on special train while fully 100
Tuscaloosa citizens also will make the
trip. And In addition hundreds of alumni
are coming from all over the state. Lon
ME Nooiin, athletic director of the uni
versity who has the details of the game
i'll hand, announces that letters have been
written to old grads all over the country
and letters of acceptance already are
pouring in. Some are coming from as far
as st. Louis, while Mississippi, Tennes-
see Florida and Georgia will furnish
their quota.
Whether the Crimson viii emerge from
the struggle as victor is another mat
ter. But it may be safely said that to win
Sewanee must be considerably stronger
than last season. At any rate, the Purple
Tiger has on hand the job of defeating
the best eleven Alabama has had in the
past 10 years, and while he may accom-
plish this feat, it would be a hard matter
to make the Alabama student body or its
team believe 1t.
The following statistics give good
| idea as to just what the Crimson eleven
is in size and experience:

Versatile, perhaps, is the best adjective
by which the 1916 Crimson eleven may be
described. 1t has weight, speed a varied
attack and a formidable defense. In
Green, Gage, Hagan, and Brown, Coach
Kelley has a quartet of the fleetest half
backs that have ever at one time been
on an Alabama team. In Hovater, j.,
Burnette, johnson and Taylor, he carries
another quartet of deadly plunging abil-
ity. This versatility nables Kelley at a
moments notice to switch from a line at
tack to open play of equal calibre
Four of the seven men in the Alabama
line are veterans. Three are new men.
Included in the veteran marterial are Ike
Rogers and Whittelsey, the first weighing
1856 pounds and the latter 1879. Both are
fierce fighters, and powerful both on the
offense and defense At center is May
nor another veteran, and man given
prominent mention for all-southern last

last season, but at that he is light for a
center. However. the squarejawed war
