Defeat of Season.
BY PAUL NICHOLSON,
Associated Press Sports Writer,

\A/ 3l.-Andy Kerr's Red
wv Raiders from Colgate, re.
garded as pretty much OF
q set-up after their lickings from
Duke and Tulane, dazzled the Army
with typical shell game" in the
last half today to topple the Cadets
into q 14-to-7 defeat.
Soundly beaten in the first half,
which saw them troop to the. dress
ing room with the scoreboard read
ing to against them, the slickers
from the banks of the Chenango
cooked up q new hocus-pocus that
brought them from hopeless defeat
to victory over the heretofore I'M
beaten. united Army mule. The re-
suit was one Of the most starting up
sets Of q season already Uttered with
amazing comebacks and defeats.
Unless it was the old master, Kerr
himself, not one of the 10000 spec
tators who damned the small Niche
Stadium on perfect sunshiny day
gave the Red Raiders a ghost of a
show. With Monk Meyer sliding
through them for long gains and pass
ing them dizzy, the slickers from
Hamilton resembled a bewildered high
| school team against q great one.
Colgate Amazes Army, Crowd.
RUT back they came. As the crowd
stood and gasped, they rushed over
the tying touchdown shortly after the
third period opened and came back
with another before the fourth was
very old, with Whitney Jaeger, Ed
Labor, Don Wemple and Johnny Long
bamboozling the tough old Army mule
with their hocus-pocus.
With Meyer shaking his way over
the greensward, the Cadets took only
10 minutes and seven plays to streak
into the lead. Making the Colgate
defense look pitiful, the Cadets started
on their 81 and reached the Raiders
10 as Meyer tossed accurate aerials into
the arms Of Frank Kobes and Johnny
Ryan when he didn't cross up the
enemy with a dash himself.
On the 10 Meyer faded back and
threw q high floating pass to Ryan,
who nabbed it on the goal line and
walked over for the touchdown. Ryan
added the extra point.
For the rest of the half Army made
one threatening sally after another.
potent that it reached no farther than
its own A.
What Andy Kerr told his Red Raid
ers between halves isn't known, but
they came back as If they had been
fed q mixed menu of dynamite and
Halloween ale. Eight minutes after
their return to the field they had
knotted the count.
Passes Bring Upset.
JAEGER took Meyers punt, raced
yards and lateraled to Frank
Marshall, who ran 10 more to his AZ.
Pulling the drawstring from their
trick bag with double and triple later
ais and forwards, the Red Raiders
swept to the 1-foot line, where Lalor
dived over center for the touchdown.
As the breathless crowd watched,
Marcel Chesbro tied the score with a
perfect placement.
Army drove back, but Jim Craig, in
for the sensational Meyer, fumbled.
and Jaeger recovered for Colgate on
his 20. Another exchange of sallies
found the Raiders of again with their
hocus-pocus. Starting on their 43 on
the break Of q kicking duel, Long
threw pass to Temple that was good
for AZ yeards, placing it on Army's
Is. Another pass, Long to Wemple,
put it on the Cadet S, and Jaeger, on
the end of q perfectly executed double
reverse, slipped around his left end
for another touchdown. Chesbro
again added the extra point.
As Meyer re-entered the game, the
Cadets opened a desperate passing at
tack, but twice 1t was broken up with
interruptions by Tommy Eek and
Jaeger. As the game ended the Raid
ers were firing away on the Army's IS.
