RUTGERS WINS EASY VICTORY OVER
 LOUISIANA BY BIG SCORE OF 25 TO O

New York, Nov. 7.-Rutgers' heavy weight eleven ran rough shod through the Louisiana state university team here this afternoon in the final periods of the game. winning % to 0. The new Brunswick college was represented by a team of substitutes in the first period and Louisiana. although unable to score outplayed the Northerners. When Coach Sanford began to send in the varsity regulars in relays of from three to six at a time the situation was quick ly changed. Louisiana. despite the plucky and hard line defense, was un- able to hold Rutgers. which ploughed through steadily with an occasional for ward pass injected to keep Louisiana's s secondary defense from coming into brace the line.
 Although outplayed the visitors show ed some excellent tackling and end run ming. especially Halfback Helm, who was an outstanding figure both on or- fense and defense. Maloney was the star for Rutgers, his forward passing and 80 yard run for a touchdown after catching a punt being the thrilling fea- lures of an otherwise drab game play ed in mist and rain. Numerous penal ties were imposed on both teams for technical and personal violations of the rules.
 Figures compiled after the game showed that the penalties imposed on both teams aggregated over two hum dred yards.
