Even NOtre Dame Suffers De-

Fall Before Foes.

The invasion OF the East by Jumbo
Stiehm and his squad Of Crimson Sat
urday was not the success some had
hoped for, 1t seems that largely
through lack Of confidence the Blooming
ton team was Played of its feet In the
nrst half OF the game at Cambridge. The
Harvard team Gld not gain 50 much
ground by its suLIFhing attack, Tut in the
exchange of punts invariably gained from
twenty to thirty yards. The first touch
down for the eastern Crimson was the d.
other hurried effort that carried only
twenty yards. The Harvard forwards
DfoAe through the big Indiana line time
anu again in the first part of the game
ald hurried the kicker when not actually
blocking the punts.
The l. L. team elected to play a purely
defensive game at the start s1d lost the
slve battle. In the second half different
tactics were employed with infinitely bet
ter results. The score Of Harvard in the
last period was the result of an In
tercepted forward pass and an 81 yard
run after Indiana had smashed Its
way to within striking distance Of the
Harvard goal line. Hanny, Kyle and Nc
Cav played w9ll for the HoOsier team.
The eleven was weak at quarter and
with the exception of Burke and Kyle
the back field was powerless to gain.
Gehrke. Fits und Buell. were stars for
the eastern club. The score was 10 to 0.
1t is not very often that Notre Dame
Is on the short end Of the score and
every body wonders what coul1 have hap
pened when the Irish lose. What hap
pened Saturday was that Rockne's squad
went up against what is apparently one
OF the strongest elevens in the West.
Iowa, which has had a very strong team
the last two seasons, but has Leen nOsed
out Of victories by the breaks OF the
game has found itself and looks like a
contender for Conference hOnors. With
the Devine brothers ia shape, Locke,
Slater and Bedding, the Hawkeyes pos
sess some Of the greatest of Big Ten
luminaries. All Of the scoring of the
I Iowans Saturday was done in the first
quarter. Line plunges of tackle by Locke
and A. Devine were largely responsible
for the touchdown. \ long drop kick by
A. Devine gave the extra three points
needed to win. In the second quarter
/ NOtre Dame pushed over its touchdown
and Shaw kicked goal The score was
10 to Z.
From the strength shown by Purdue
at Chicago the Irish may have a harder
task on their hands next Saturday when
they met the BoilermakeTs at Stuart
field than generally has been expected
Dietzs team showed stubborn resistance
at Marshall field, battling the MarOOn5
TO O.
Butler, which appears exceptionally
strong this year, more than lived up to
= ~ good things expected of it and ran
ound and through the Rose Poly team
1or 20 to triumph. The game was
a complete retreat for the Engineers, who
were bewildered at the versatile attack
Of the Pagemen.
De PAW, staging a comeback after its
disastrous defeat at the hands of NOtre
Dame. defeated Pennsylvania, 2S to 0,
i'll q game that was harder fought than
the score indicates. Wilmington de-
feated Earlham in a tight scrap before
a big crowd on Reid field by a score Of
6 to o.
wabash, which has been showing eI-
ceptiOnal strength in its first games,
goes 10 West Point next Saturday. Coach
Vaughan's eleven kicked over the dope
bucket in its defeat of Purdue and Sat
urday, with many of the regulars out,
ran up a Il to 0 score against George
town. The Scarlet team has shown sur
prising strength in the early season and
the Cadets at Uncle Sans Academy are
going to get some stiff opposition. Chi
cagO rated as a strong team in the Big
Ten, only beat Purdue Saturday, 80, the
same score that Wabash turned the trick
