Georgia IecE, Again 8
Victim of " arner's
Team OF T aaaiilers

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Oct 25--The
famous Golden Tornado Of Georgia
Tech again fell afoul Of Glenn War
ner's University of Pittsburgh foot
bal team, the score being l6 TO 6.
buo 1t was Il game far different from,
that seen last year. when Heisman
and his jump shift made their first
appearance in Pittsburgh. The WIS.,
ltors We're very docile in the first
quarter, while Pittsburgh scored two
touchdowns in quick succession, but
they soon woke up and the Panthers
tailed only three points in the sec
ond period. But Pittsburgh twice lost
the ball on the one-foot line.
Tech scored in the third period by
some powerful line plunging, and
kept Pittsburgh in hot water until
the closing stages OF the game, when
Tom Davies took Pittsburgh's play
into his own hands and carried the
bal we'll into Teches territory, only
to be halted by the referees whistle
ending the game.
Running off the plays with Tom
Davies in punt position gave Tech all
kinds of trouble, and when Tom took
his regular place, after a successful
end run, the Georgia men were so
busy watching him that they did not
see De Hart ease out to the opposite
end and ret away almost unm olested
to catch forward pass from Davies
for the FIRST touchdown. The pass
and Jinmy's run covered q distance
of twenty-three yards.
The next score. WAS made IN five
plays, after the kick off Tech could
not advance the ball and punted to
Pittsburgh on the home teams forty
three yard line. Hastings hit the line
for q yard and followed with q quicl,
pass to Davies. The feet kiski boy
ran forty-seven yards to the six-yard
line before he was brought down by
Quill Hastings made the balance of
the distance
Pittsburgh had the bali OF the one
foot line twice in the second period
but failed both times, once on fun
BILE and the second time because Of
Techs stiff defense. After repeated
failures to gain, Davies drop-kicked a
goal from the twenty-seven yard mark
cch went into the third period with
a powerful attack that kept tho ball
in their possession most Of the third
period, and resulted in their touch
down, Harlan scoring after an al
most continuous march The distance
was made in short gains. Fnchel
missed the goal.

Inside S Minutes; Up
staters Defeated, l3 to O

SYRACUSE, Oct. 25--Tearlng off
two spectacular fifty and ifty-fve
yards runs for touchdowns in the last
eight minutes OF pay. Erickson, the
Washington and Jefferson halfback,
sent Syracuse to defeat this afternoon,
13 to 0. The touchdowns came within
five minutes Of each other, after the
two teams had battled fifty minutes
without either side being able to make
any appreciable gain through the others
line.
In the final period Syracuse sent in
half dozen second-string men and
the work of the team suffered. I'M
mediately after that Washington and
Jefferson smashed its way down the
field to the Syracuse S-yard line, but
here the Orange held, and getting the
bail on downs punted out of danger
Syracuse braced after this score and
by straight line bucks worked the pig
skin to the Washington and jefferson
2O-yard line, but Steele fumbled and a
Washington man fell on the ball. Eli
son Immediately punted out of danger
and from that time on the visitors
line was never in danger.
with eight minutes to play Ackley,
of Syracuse punted. Erickson received
the kick and ran fifty yards through
the entire Syracuse team for touch
down. Stein failed to kick the goal.
Less than five minutes later, after an
other exchange Of punts between
Acklcy and Ellison, the former booted
to Erickson and he duplicated his feat,
this time running ffty-tive yards for
the second touchdown. Stein kicked
the goal.
Early in the first period the game
developed into a punting duel between
Ackley and Ellison. with honors about
even. Barsha, Abbott, Fallon and Ack-
ley repeatedly tried bucking the Wash
ington and Jefferson line and were
able to make only small gains. At
tempts to skirt the ends met with the
same results. Erickson, Ellison and
Bixler met the same fate when they
tried bucking the Orange line.
On several occasions Orange men
broke through the Washington and
jefferson defense and threw the runner
For loss. On the other hand. Wash
ington and Jefferson stopped S yracuse
runners in their tracks As result
both teams resorted to punting and
during the second and third period
this style Of play was used almost ex-
clusively.

By l3..O Score
Team That Humbled Yale
Falls Before the Cadets;
Prince Leopold esCame

WEST POINT, N. Y, Oct. 25.-The
Army football eleven staged come
back to-day which swept Boston Col
lege aside and lent encouragement to
the cadets supporters. The soldiers
trounced the Hub collegians, who a
week ago conquered Yale, by score
of 13 to 0.
The Bostonians we're never danger
ously near to the Army goal line, with
q single exception. This came in the
final quarter, when an Army man was
banished for slugging and the cadets
we're set back half the distance to
their goal line. which put the ball on
their 28-yard line. But even with this
advantage tho visitors could do moth
ing.
The cadets showed some Of the latent
power and drive which close observers
had felt all along they possessed.
Their running attack was much i'm
proved: The Army's stonewall defense
also stood out throughout as a bull
wark against Boston's line plunging
plays. Only by dexterous use of the
forward pass could the collegians gain.
They did launch this play to good ad-
vantage several times, but always when
they were we'll down in their own ter
ritory, which seemed wasted ENERGY.
McQuarrie Kicks Well
McQuarrie outkicked Fitzpatrick,
gaining on nearly every exchange, and
there was a deal of kicking through
out. Heaphy, Boston's pivotal man,
was played off his feet and was afford
ed no time to rove. The greatest part
of the Army's gains went through the
Boston man who worried Acosta, of
Yale, a week ago.
The Army line charged low and in
good time, and several times Boston's
plays were smeared before they were
gotten underway.
The Army's first score came after
Kieffer had fallen on one of McQuar-
re's high ones, Corrigan fumbling on
Boston's 25-yard line. On the first
play Lystad ripped through Heaphy
FOR nine yards. Schabackcr then skirt
ed Urbans end, running close to his
interference for touchdown. Nc
Quarrie kicked goal
With the ball on Army's 35-yard
line early in the second quarter, Nc
Quarrie broke loose and ran sixty
yards to Boston's 5-yard line. Two
plays took it over, McQuarre carry
ing the ball for a touchdown. The
goal was missed.
