New-York tribune., 1919-10-12

CAa'eASlty ny score OF TO U, qua
forward pass of fifteen yards from
yards for touchdown. Kennedy
ended a couple of minutes later.
Until the Blue and White came
through with this winning pass the
Vermont boys had outplayed their op-
ponents, advancing the bail far mo Q
consistently on rushing plays through
the line and around the ends.
When the third period closed YER
mont held the ball on Columbia's 15-
yard line, the gain following Brooks
running through broken field and
clever delayed pass Columbia held
desperately for the third down at this
juncture, and the period ended with the
Vermont rooters yelling for a touch
down.
Vermont Near Score
When they resumed hostilities in
the last period Brock, the sturdy Yer
mont left halfback, tore his way
the next play Brock dropped back in
try for a placement kick from the
10-yard line. He was facing diff
cult angle, and when Margolewsky, the
Vermont centre, made poor pass
back, his halfback had to leap in the
air to catch the ball, fumbling as he
did so. A Columbia man fell on the
ball and prevented what looked a fine
chance to score.
Once before this, in the second
period, Vermont tried to score on
placement kick from the 45-yard line,
Garrity missing the goal posts by
about four feet. But in spite of these
two failures. the visiting eleven kept
the ball in Columbia territory more
often than in it's own, and was clear
ly superior at straight rushing.
There was no element of luck in the
Blue and Whites score, for the pass
was beautifully planned and perfect
~ executed, Canapary heaving the
ball clear across the field and high
over the heads of the struggling
players: Quigley was down under the
pass like ar arrow, lodging inter
ferers skilfully and getting away like
a streak once he had gripped the ball
in his hands.
TO wouldbe tacklers he put cut
OF til. way with straight-arm defence
and three more he avoided by great
lodging. The path to the goal line
was then clear and Quigley raced
across the chalk mark and downed the
pigskn squarely between the goal
posts. The Columbia roofing section
was still believing madly when Ken
nedy KICKED the goal:
dentally, were in midseason form, and
were glowing tribute to their train
ers. handlers and seconds Time never
had to be called out in their behalf
and they still had half dozen unused
assorted cheers left when the game
ended.
Visitors Rush Down Field
Vermont began the game by kicking
off to Columbia's 3O-yard line, and
after trying two smashes through the
Green line Thornton punted 35 yards
from midfeld, and Columbia man was
down under the kick with great speed
mailing Garrity on Vermont's 3O-yard
,line. The visitors sent the ball stead
~ down the field by rushing, and when
Columbia held at last the New Eng
land eleven punted out of danger
The ball travelled up and down the
field for few minutes on line plunges
and then, Columbia having been penal
lied 10 yards for holding, Thornton
punted from the Blue and White 80
yard line. Brock caught the ball and
ran it back for Is yards.
The Vermont team then began a
steady advance toward the goal posts
Garrlty and Brock smashing their way
through the line and around the ends
The first quarter ended with the ball
in Vermonts possession, on Columbia's
23-yard line.
The second period found the ball
mostly in Columbia territory, although
.cne or two fifteen and twenty-yard runs
by Quigley helped the local eleven tc
keep the ball out of the danger zone
Several fumbles by both teams occurred
in this period, and the whistle blew
with the ball in Columbia's hands or
her 20-yard line.
In the third and fourth periods. wher
