vacated in 1876.
Captain Richard H. Pratt then a

the abandoned post into school for
the education of Indians. Captain
Pratt at the time was in charge Of Ind

in October, 1879, he established an Ind

Boys and girls of one-quarter Indian

Columbia Wins
Stiff Battle
From N. Y. u.
Dawson's Eleven Triumphs
IL to 0, but Fails to Show
Best Form

Columbia won its fifth straight vic
tory on the gridiron by defeating New
York University on Soutf Field yes
terday by score of IL to O.. 1t was
hard fought game, in which Colum-
bia, although the aggressor from start
power expected of it.
The Blue and White scored touch
down in the first period after carry
in gthe ball from mid-feld on ten
plays and pushing Houlahan over for
the score from the 2-yard line. The
try at foal was missed.
In the second period. almost at the
end of the half, Charley Shaw broke
loose on the Violet's 37-yard line, and
by a brilliant dash around right end.
shot through the entire n. 7. y. eleven
and swung across the line for the sec
ond score. Again the goal was missed,
and that endea the scoring for the day.
Once early in the first period and
twice in the second half Columbia adj
vanced inside N. Y. US 10-yard line,
but could not drive the ball across for
n. Y. U. goal came when the field was
hidden in the gloom of early twilight,
but despite four desperate lunges at
the opponents goal the final charge
found Columbia a foot short and the
ball went to Violet on downs. On the
two other occasions penalties checked
Columbia's rallies and enabled the
Violet to hold its own
From start to finish there was no
question as to the relative power of
the two teams. Columbia outplayed,
outgeneraled and outfought N. Y. u,
made thirteen first downs by rushing
against N. Y. US two, and, on the
whole, displayed a superior brand of
football.
In the second half it appeared as
if Dawson's men were holding back,
because they did not get into the fight
with the snap and dash that marked
their play in the first session. Per-
haps it was due to a fear that scouts
from Syracuse in the stands might
learn too much that the Blue and
White did not cut loose it'll their
scoring plays.
Columbia tried only one forward
pass and that was a failure n. Y. u,
on the other hand, tried about
dozen and completed two, one of them
for fifteen yards and first down. The
others were smeared by the Columbia
backs. showing that Dawson's drill in
a defense against this play had borne
fruit.

Association, as Americas greatest fair

Gently claimed the distinction for Mrs.
Frances Cowells Schroth, of San Fran
CISCO, basing the latter's choice on the
fact that she was credited last sum-
mer with beating records all the wav
from twenty-five yards to one mile.
AT Mondays meeting, however, it de-
veloped that only one of Mrs. Schroth's
marks has received official recognition,
this being an 8S0-yard swim in
10: 46 %, made in a 10O-yard pool.
Now, the local star covered the very
same distance in 13:314-5, over a
22O-yard open water course, better
performance also bracketed, while new
standards were granted her at 220,
1000, 1,500 yards and one mile. Con-
sldering, then, that she leads all
rivals in the matter of records. and
that she captured the national cham
pionships at 22o, 440, 500, $50 yards
and long distance swimming, her su
premacy is absolutely beyond argu-
ment.
