sharp shots at the toilet i.ne rned
Columbia a first down and fifteen yards
for roughn ,ss by an N. ~. u. nLn

after this the Roder'ck-koppisch COM
bination got working In style. First
Zen loped around end for eleven yards,
and straightway he whizzed fc Yard
tc Koppisch for at least eleven more.
Things were working fine for the B.ue
Another dIsi. another gain. and agaii
Roder'ck fell back for forward pass.
Presently Roderick' eligible men were
scooting Lither and thither. but efore
Ben could pick out the best mark How
ley was pounding in from left end,
headed straight at him. Roderick tried
to avoid tn, winyman, but Howley dove
to make his tackle. and as he did struck
the ball, knocking 1t from RCderick'5
end. So ended Columbia's first threat to
score. for ~. Y. u. recovered and the
booting Wea ,herdon drove the en- .uring
oval to Columbia's yard line,
Violet shows Offensive.
The University Heights players
flashed real offensive for the first time
il the second period. Gaining possess
sion OF the ball on their own 80 yard
lire, the Violet players, by two penal
ties against Columbia and three we'll
earned first downs. brought the ball to
Columbia's 32 yard line. Here there
vas offensive holding which set the
Violet back Is yards. This loss was
recovered when Toorock got off "a
yard forward on the following play
and, with a short run on the receiving
end of the play, n. Y. u. placed the
ball on -Columbia's IS yard line. CO.
li'mbia held and N. Y. u. set about
preparations for try at placement,
" hich went entirely awry when Capt.
Taylor's pass was wild and Weatherdon
was downed away back on the 3S yard
line. where Columbia was given posses
sion Of the ball A tumble by Koppisch.
which Taylor recovered again. set N. Y.
u cheering, but a forward pass was
Intercepted by Burtt, the Columbia
quarter, and In a few moments the half
ended.
N. Y. U. had another splendid oppor-
tunity to score at the start of the third
quarter when Pulleyn, after running the
kickoff out 2s yards from the goal. fum-
bied and ". Y. y. recovered. A Is yard
penalty hurt the chances of the Uni
versity Heights men. who In desperation
attempted another long forward on the
last down. which, while completed,
f9iled to reach the required point and
Columbia took the ball Again In the
final quarter ". Y. u. was down the
field as far as Columhia's IS yard line,
where they lost the ball on downs.
Just exactly at this point Messrs.
Walter Koppisch and Bernard Roderick
cut loose with all the sparkle OF their
exceptional. talents. Bing went Ben and
bang went Walter and the ball was
out to the IS yard line. The N. Y. u.
secondary had been drawn up by this
sort Of treatment and away went a
forward that Koppisch carried TO the
10 yard line. He had however. gone
out OF bounds at thirty-two and the ball
was brought back. II was as nothing
a, all, for first Roderick and then Kop-
pisch and then vice versa kept tear
ling along until finally II was first down
with four 10 60. ". Y. ". watched
Roderick and Koppisch, and while the
Violet watched Burtt streaked across
the goal line for the touchdown. Here
came the tense moment OF the contest.
A kicked goal meant an even game.
". Y. U. rooters exhorted their war
riors to Block that kick," and didn't
believe they could. But Barkowits did
and the game was won.
CoIumbia's stand
With that first touchdown slowed
away Columbia set out to get a second.
II N. Y y. had been covering Roderick
and Koppisch earlier In the game they
weren't having as much success now.
Columbia tried a long forward-Roderlck
to Koppisch, Of course. Up shot a Vio-
let arm that hit the bali. but on went
the oval 20 Koppisch. Columbia tried
another. Koppisch caught IL and II
looked like tho Jig was IN so far as
". Y. ". hopes were concerned. The
field was practically clear ahead of
the Light Blue dasher. but before he
could pick up his best speed Throop
bobbed up from nowhere and brought
him down from behind. BY this time
N. Y. u. seemed TO have the situation
sized up pretty well and three Column
bia forwards In a row were grounded.
On the fourth down Roderick tried a
run from kick formation. The run
failed. and With it's failure passed the
last threat TO New York university's
biggest win.
