New York University's young eleven
tired perceptibly in the last quarter of
Its tussle with Wesleyan onN Ohio Field
yesterday. the huskier and more expert
enced lads from the Nutmeg State win
ming by a score Of 10 to 0. Wesleyan
thereby kept intact its record of not
being scored against this season. while
the Violet added a third chapter to its
performance Of not scoring a point on
1919 opponent.
A pretty drop kick from the 40-yard
line propelled by the clever toe OF Eddie
Boote. an East Orange boy. and a
Charley Chaplin touchdown by Webb
with Its accompanying goal from touch
down enabled Wesleyan to win by a
comfortable margin In the fourth quar-
ter after they had bumped against a
brick wall In the previous three.
Wesleyan's touchdown In the last FIVE
minutes of play was one of the frealdest
things ever seen on a gridlron. 1t was
unfortunate that the ball was headed
for the New York goal line rather than
that OF Wesleyan, for the humor of the
situation was lost to most of the Violet
supporters

ments, and two line plays bringing only
small gains, BOote dropped back to the
