SMASH GOAL-POSTS

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-CP)-
Smashing of foes goal-posts after
football victories, which appears to
have become the fad, is frowned upon
at Harvard.
Captain Dolph Cheek of the Grim
son football team has informed the
Brown University authorities tina. the
majority of Harvard students ere
sorry that over-enthusiastic supporters
demolished the posts ut Providence on
Saturday.
Harvard had every reason to burst
forth in unbeard-of enthusiasm after
the Brown game, for it was the Grim
sons first victory over the Bears, IN
four years and one of three Harvard
victories this season, bat Captain
Cheek did not hesitate in apologizing.
Yale uprooted the Harvard posts
after winning the muddy battle at the
Harvard stadium two yeaB ago, when
Ducky Pond raced Is yards TO q
touchdown, and last Saturday suffered
the same fate in Yale Bowl when
Princetonians bore away all the WOOD
in sight.

EASTERN FOOTBALL

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-(P)-EGdie
Tryon of Colgate and not Myles Lane
Of Dartmouth is the leading indi-
vidual scorer ON the eastern intercol-
legiate gridiron. An official recheck
with the Dartmouth football manage
ment revealed that Lane had scored
IL touchdowns for total of 102
points while Tryon has amassed Il
total of 103 points.
Another change in the official rank
ing was announced by Syracuse au-
thorities when it was determined after

reported that Mcister had crossed the
Colgate goal line.
This elevated Carr to third place
among the leading scorers with ~
points. one point ahead of "Swede"

interested eyes. And becomingly
perched on curled heads are the

relic of other days, but women's
most al1uring and becoming top-piece.
But, just wait! Scores Of the towns
