The half ended with the battle quite

Harvard had exhibited a better quality
offensive. which the strong Tiger defence
had nobly withstood. Princeton had
shown a drive will the old style OF play,

RUTGERS ELEVEN
PUT TO HARD TEST
SanfOrd's Team Battles West
Virginia in Keen Tilt to
ScOrclcss Tie.
REPLETE WITH THRILLS

New BRUNSWICK. Nov. II. Foster
Sanford's powerful Rutgers eleven was
given n real test here to-day when the
local gridders battled the West Virginia
team to II 0 to o tie. Rutgers's defence
came through unscathed. but the attack
was sadly lacking In punch.
The game was one OF the fastest ever
staged here and was replete with thrills
from whistle to whistle. Twice West
Virginia was within fifteen yards OF a
touchdown, only to be held for downs by
Rutgers's stoncwa,i defence. M Hazel's
magnificent puntins put the Scarlet out
OF danger.
West Virginia kicked of to Garrett.
who ran the ball back to his own 30
yard line. Two line plunges by Hazel
and Brache- put the bail in midfeld, but
a tumble gave 1t to West Virginia.
King then uncorked a beautiful for
ward pass to Hutchinson for twenty
yards, and IIite. made fifteen more
around right end. Rutgers held for
downs. however. and Hazel punted to
midhcld. Another pass to Hager. who
dropped In a clear field without being
tackled. netted thirty more. but Rutgers
again held. and Hazel punted over Kings
head to West Virginia's 90 yard line.
A poor punt by Klng gave Rutgers the
ball on the - yard line, and after
~plunging through for ten yards Hazel
tried a field goal on a multiple Kick. but
the ball went wide.
Southerners Gain on Forward.
Tho Southerners opened the second
period with q twenty-five yard forward.
but when they tried to follow It UP with
another Garrett intercepted the ball.
straight line plunges put the ball on
West Nirginia's rs yard line. but Rutgers
lacked the punch TO put II over. and
Hazel tried another multiple kick. The
ball sailed straight for the bars. high In
tn" air. but a gust OF wind caught IT and
sheered It of.
In the second half West Virginia re-
sorted almost entirely TO the forward
pass. the height Of their forwards giving
them a big advantage In handling this
play.
\ tumble by Rutgers, however. gave
the visitors "A chance to score. After
Hite had punted to Rutgers's 35 yard
line Wallace fumhled and Hutchinson
captured the spherold for the visitors.
The Nirginiaus were unable TO gain
through the line. and King tried for a
