Columbia Shows Class in
Defeating Trinity, 81 to 0
Outplays Hartford Eleven in Every Department of
Game, Giving Evidence of Powerful Football
Machine Under ONeill's Coaching

Columbia made an suspicious opening
of its 1920 football season yesterday af-
ternoon by trouncing Trinity at South
Field by the score Of 81 to o. The Blue
and White collegians scored three TOUGH
downs. one In the second and two In the
fourth quarter, and added three points
by kicking all three goals. The visitors
from Hartford were outclassed and out
played from start to finish. The game
was much more one sided even than the
score would indicate. for the Trinity
team failed to make even a single first
down. Two unfortunate fumbles pre-
vented Columbia from scoring two addi-
tional touchdowns.
The contest marked the debut OF
Frank J. (Buck) O'Neill as coach of the
Blue and White eleven, and the play of
the home team ceemed to. place the
stamp of app. Ial on the O'Neill
methods e coaching. The local collie
gians sk<ywed great power and looked to
possess possibilities of a powerful foot

WhitS line charged strongly and ripped
great holes through the Trinity line all
afternoon and the backs took good adj
vantage of the openings created for
them, Canapary and Moszczenski partic-
ularly showing to advantage. hammering
the line in off tackle and through centre
plays for repeated long gains
During the afternoon Columbia regis

w. Y. u. ELEVEN
SCORES AT WILL
Proves Too Strong for U.S.S.
Pennsylvania.

New York University's eleven started
its season rather auspiciously yesterday
afternoon by defeating the team of the
United States battleship Pennsylvania
decsively 46 to o. The Violet showed
their superiority before the game had
progressed one quarter. At no time did
the marine eleven threaten the New
York goal line. and the seamen gained
only one first down.
The most promising feature OF the
New York teams showing was the de-
fence. The navy lads had great deal
of difficulty In penetrating the Violet
line and as result had to resort TO
aerial attack as their only chance for
score This in itself was instru-
mental In the seamen's undoing because
no less than two touchdowns in the first
half resulted from intercepted passes by
alert n. Y. L. players.
Gargans charges, on the other hand,
achieved unexpected success In their
forward passing The combina ton OF
Welnheimer TO Hucles and vice versa
was exceedingly effective when gains
were needed for first down or touch
down The Violet did not resort to
nearly a. many passes as was expected.
owing to the success of the backfield in
line plays and end runs whenever
needed.
New York University supporters
found cause for much encouragement
yesterday afternoon in the splendid ex-
hibition OF Capt Weinbeimer and
Hucles. Weinheimer played brilliantly
on the offensive. hie skill and speed
proving more than a match for the in
experienced sailors. Hucles made his
first appearance in regular game for
the New Workers and proved himself a

On the defence Trinity showed to better
advantage, twice holding for downs in
the first half on It's five yard and three
