BROWN AND CADETS
 OUT OF RUNNING
Saturdays Defeats Removes Their EleVenS From Charmed Circle

{ ways indicated that this is not what might be called an informal season. or the first time in two years the Army was forced to accept beating, md just when it least expected it, aNotre Dame winning by to 2 Brown, 4Nsh from its triumph over Colgate, a6ered an unlocked for setback from Syracuse by 6 to 0. For Brown it X Nap only the second defeat in two a1A1ons.
 a The Eastern society of unbeaten Aoy consists of only six members. ss 4tsbnrgh, Dartmouth, Washington n Jefferson. Georgetown, Stevens ssSnd Williams. which has been tied. s14 these Washington and Jefferson is H1No only eleven whose goal line has 2 t been crossed. In fact Sol Metz
 combination has not yielded a ' 11o point in any way, g. feat which believe has not been duplicated by 70Y other eleven in civilized football. M Tn nll this country there are only A WNnteen unbcaten elevens, and quite
 sNnmber of them have been tied. In
 o South the list consists of Georgia oCh., Auburn. Alabama, Sewanee nd Tulane. In the middle West the
 ean slate brigade includes Ohio
 Ente. Illinois, Chicago and Michigan. x 4he Rocky Mountain division the
 nlveTRity of Denver holds the lone
 3onor. while on the Coast Washing Ss Ana State is the ono undefeated az etaon. < Navy Leading Scorer.
 When .t comes to scoring points # x,4A palm must be awarded to the Navy, which has gathered 334 and aliowcd only 1.-the Hateful seven .... AL. < record of the midshipmen for the ; y.6ar. West Virginia took the meas Hfe of the Navy by 2 to 0. Second 2 oaltion in scoring goes to Georgia 5 9ech.. which has tailed 322 and 1ven up 13. Ohio State is third with III and ,. Penn State fourth with
 N4 and 24 and Rutgers fifth with 193
 4d 28. Pitt has scored 1892 and
 aelded IS, to West Virginia and 6 Ito Pennsylvania. g The Army's defeat by Notre Dame Y forced us to scratch the cadets from the list of really great teams of the @ @leason--beaten or unbeaten. Never eN this stage of the season have we s1een an eleven so unprepared. so < Hrude. so. lamentably lacking in the SRnoRledge of theory or the ability to do. Yet, this estimate of the Army a \ on the cadets. They should glory in that condition. It reflects far more credit on Capt. "Jeff" Reyes squad than if 1t had whipped Notre Dame Z 10 Ia standstill r..
 No Excuses for Brown. < Brown presents no excuses for it's E Z defeat by Syracuse. The latter out 1 played the Bears and thoroughly de- K served its success. The Syracuse for x wards held the Brown line attack in chock and the Syracuse ends smeared tho Brown running game. The Up- x 1taAers were just as strong in the k hkckneld as they were in the line and with . first class general like Chick AeQhan running thinga they gave a 6 splendid exhibition.
 Since Pitt defeated Syracuse by 20 X to ., the victory of the Orange 'ap- pears further to emphasize the & otTongth of Glenn Warmers eleven. ssAD . preparation for the game with avAshtngtop and Jefferson next Sat urday Pitt took things easy with
 Metzger's players rest
 ld on Saturday.
 y Dartmouth had quite a time taking N AhA measure of Penn State. by 10 to state recently was beaten by w. EEA T.. to 0. It was last minute Aye1d goal by substitute that saved ss19Artmouth from a tie. Even Dart mouth men had to confess that there VvAs little to choose between the con- testing elevens, and that in Robb and Way, the quarter, State had two men who outshone anybody on the Green combination. Next Saturday Dart mouth will tackle Penn, which de- feated Lafayette on Saturday by
 27 to 0.
 A Feat by Rutgers.
 In holding West Virginia to a tie
 nt 2 to 2. Rutgers retrieved some of
 the honors it lost in the defeat by Syracuse and established its place
 among the topnotchers. It was un fortunate that Rutgers took on Syra- cuse so early in the season. but at
 that, Syracuse probably could repeat E now on 9 lesser scale.
 Cornell continued it's improvement
 and defeated Carnegie Tech, 20 to O..
 The Pittsburghers really expected to
 win Next Saturday the Ithacans will
 Tnce Michigan and more trouble than ! CoTliell cares for now or any other
 tiKN6s this season.
 Columbia did no more and no less
 than was expected of it and lost to
 Amherst, IA to 6. It was a poorly
 played game and a carnival of
 Guubling. Amherst fell far below < what had been looked for from it.
 Wesleyan, which had been lucky to ' heat New York University and was ss whipped by Stevens, sprang q surprise sA and held Williams to a scoreless tie z Sstevens continued it's splendid work
 and ripped Worcester Poly to pieces
 3z tp O. Al Mccall has developed d
 rerflarkable team at Stevens and de-
 geryNs world of praise. Neither
 ForUham nor N. Y. '. played on Sat urday. They rested for their battles
