Fog Interferes With Play Be.

At Pol1 Grounds.

NEW YORK, Nov. I'm a hard
fought game on Ohio field here
this afternoon before a crowd or
5000 Fordham University's football
eleven beat the New York Univer-
sity forces by a score OF IA to 6.
The ground was slippery and the
issue was consequently in doubt up
to the final whistle.
Gargan's outfit was held pretty
even by the lighter. Violet players
for the first two periods, but in the
second half the Maroon line made
good use of its weight and opened
hole after hole in the New York
defense through which tho Ford
ham backs tore repeatedly.
Fordham outrushed New York 13
downs to 3. Thorp's eleven earned
two first downs in the opening Pc
riod and one in the next. but were
helpless in the iast half and re-
sorted to the punting.
1t was the first time these ancient
rivals had faced each other on the
gridiron in eighteen years.
Ten minutes before game time
the fog over the playing field was
so thick players had difficulty in
seeing the goal posts from the side
lines. Later 1t abated somewhat.

Half a Dozen C0ntenders Now
Threaten to Wrest HOnOrs
From Southeast.

Before the District independent
football championship Is settled this
year. followers of the rival con-
tenders for the crown are assured
of witnessing the keenest competi-
tion ever staged on the gridirons In
and around Washington.
Southeast Washington, the home
of the champion Mohawks. has had
a monopoly on the title for the past
eight years. This fall the Hawks
resumed where they left off last
season and started winning with
clock like regularity until they met
the Georgetown A. c. last Sunday.
The team from across the creek
held the cocky Southeast combina-
tiOn to a scoreless tie.
1t was a moral victory for George
town and also injected confidence
into the other camps, some of
which thought the Mohawks were
invincible.
Dopesters who have been follow
ing the elevens this fall are passing
out the word that the Mercury A. c.
of the Southwest is the one that
will knock the Indians from their
pedestal. Though they are not
shouting from the roof tops that
they can wrest the championship
from the Mohawks. the Mercury
players and rooters are confident.
Must Bent Georgetown.
But before the Mercury squad can
put in a bid for the title they have
a big obstacle to hurdle. They have
a date Sunday November 10 at the
Washington Barracks with the
Georgetown A. c. A victory for
Georgetown would blast the hopes
of the Southwest rooters and also
give the former outfit another
chance at the champions.
There are several games that
stand out over the others in the
elimination series. One of these is
a Georgetown A. C.-Knickerbocker
A. C. scrap, II 1t can be booked.
The Georgetown combination is
managed by Joe Kearney, who
guided the destinies of the Knick-
erbocker. Club for nine years. He Is
no longer connected with the or
ganization. When he formed his
Georgetown eleven his main idea
was to mold a team together that
could lick the Knicks.
But whether his team has any,
thing on the Knicks or not may not
be decided this fall. The Knicks, 1t
is understood, refused to listen to
Kearney's plea for a game, telling
him, "his club should go get a
reputation His team now has a
reputation.
Kearney Us determined to try to
force the Knicks into giving him
a game He at least has the right
to challenge the Knicks.
Knieks Cancel ons Mercury.
The Knicks were scheduled to
play Mercury next Sunday, but can
celled the game. The Knicks have
a whole lot of respect for the ability
of the Southwest eleven. The can
collation. OF Sundays date is an ad-
mission on the part of the Knicks
that they must present their strong
est forces against Mercury. Man
ager Whalen could not muster his
regular line up this coming Sum
day, and rather than face Mercury
with a make-shift team. he wise
ly called off hostilities until a
later date.
Another team in the scramble
is the Southern A. c.. Of the
