1 I 19 THE XEW YORK TIMES; SUNDAY. OCTOBER 4. 1903. SURPRISES IN FOOTBALL GAMES Harvard and Princeton Run Against Snags in Maine and Georgetown Respectively--Playing Shows Much of the Real Strength of the Various Teams. Improvement marked the work mt of the football elevens yesterday.

The teams which were expected to win id but In two Instances, the games In which Itervgrd And Princeton participated, the scores wers not nearly as large tbr were egpeeted to b. Ai i matter or fact, both these elevens were played to a standstill. Harvard won by a 6 to 0 score, while the eeore In the Princeton contest was even closer solitary touch-down. Tba University of Maine was the Crtm-son's doughty epponent. Right at the sUrt of the came a sixty-vard raq enabled the Cambridge eleven to score, and everything seemed propitious for an easy victory.

Thereafter, however, the game was evenly contested. Once during the first half Maine made a straight gain of forty-five yards, their most effective ground-gaining manoeuvre being a Undent play In which so one was brought back from the line. Princeton played Georgetown In a listless manner, and this, more than anything else, accounts for the poor showing of the Orange and Black. la the first half a fumble enabled Georgetown to get the ball to Princeton's one-yard line, and the defense which held back Georgetown In the three attempts to force the ball over the line for a touch-down was worthy of Old Nassau. The Columbia eleven snowed Improved lorro la the gnme against Union, which was won by a 36 to score.

Quarter Back Jones ran his team well, and Melietliin. who made his debut In a game with the Bine and White, made an extremely creditable showing. There Is stilt much crudity In Columbia's work, but the work of the elevenV shows consistent Improvement under Coach Motley's tuition. The other Jfew Tork elevens, Manhattan and Fordham, wen their games easily. The University of Vermont was no match for Tale, and the Blue was able to try out most of the substitutes In the second half.

While Cornell was held to an 11 to 0 score by Rochester, she made a better showing -than the score would seem to Indicate. Rochester only gained first down jnce. and the ball was in her territory most of Ue time. Pennsylvania played a fast gains against Lehigh. In which her players did very little The score was 16 to 0.

The West Point eleven had Tufts to con tend with and won an easy victory by a iV to 0 score. Parnsworth. who played end last year, was used back of the lme In this game. His work was very creditable, both touch-downs in the first half being due to his splendid work. Following are the scores of the principal games played yesterday; Columbia.

Thus far the work of the regular team has not justified the sentiment at Tale that the team would this year har an easy time winning the championship. It is known that Princeton is very confident Of winning her game with Tale, and thus far there Is good reason for It. The worst feature of Tale's play la Its slowness In the line. The four veterans. Rafferty and Ehevlin at the ends and Kinney and Harm at tackle, are In better form than they were last year, but the centre trio Is giving trouble.

Blooker at right guard is ew to position, and his three seasons' rest has made him slow in getting started In his play. ie Is bigger aud stronger than he and elves prornine of being another Ola in the etrlnimas.es. Roraback is now the probable leader tor centre, and it he ran put a little more ease and speed into his great strength and weight he will easily, outclass Flanders and Smith. The weakest spot in the Tale line is Morton at left guard. There Is- Just now no man who aeems likely to make a bid for his place, and as Morion has been the easiest mark for the scrubs tbepast week the outlook in not promising.

The supreme need of the Tale rush line is a strong set of new guards Behind the line Twirhell. last year's freshman quarter back, has come up rap-Idly and now the first substitute quarterback. He plays with great dash, is sure of catciang punts and in kicking- better than Rockwell, who is weak in that one department of his game. The week has seen a lively contest for the vacancy at Wt halfback. Owsley.

Poper. Mitchell. Phippa. Mills, Btevenson. Allen, and Rooms have been alternating in the position, and llrCoy.

the ex-Anoherst captain and fullback, who baa been substitute fullback at Tale this Fall, has now ben added to the list. Bowman continues to hold his place as fullback, and Iawrence. a sub last year, is being developed as his understudy. Although the new rules In football have already had two weeks of practical operation there is itlll much speculation among college men as to what will be the effect of them in the really important games of the season. Opinions differ widely, but there Is a general sentiment that the changes will not make any radical differ-' eace in the sport.

The coaches of the big. elevens are naturally reticent en the sub' ect, fearing, no doubt, that practice will prove theory wrong and so tend to injure their reputation for a thorough knowledge of the sport. One of the most prominent of the Eastern coaches, how- ever, consented to talk on the probable result of the new rules last night and advanced some interesting theories. One change in the rules is that after a punt the man who kicks ran no longer run down the field and getting had of the ball to put his men on side. This change was designed to do away with the rough treatment invariably allotted to the punter.

The coach referred to does not believe that the kicker will receive rnurh less gentle treatment than formerly. He says that while the attack on a full back was supposed merely to be for the purpose of preventing his putting his. men on side, in reality it wan designed to rsttle the full back and rather ruffle his nerves, so that he would endeavor tO; get the punts off faster and In consequence ineffectually The coach thinks this status of affairs will still prevail unless the officials are more strict than they are likely to be. The-chang that provides that between the 2.V-vard lines thre must be seven men on the line of scrimmage, of course does away with the poealbility of the guard-back or tackle-back plays, and In therefore anticipated to remove some of the roughness of the gsme by eliminating: mass plays. -1 do not think." said the coach, "that this purpose will be achieved.

It wilt mean a difference of only one man In the hn, and mass plays and tandems wlil be possible. If a team has a good tackle able to advance the ball he can be drawn back of the line and one of the half harks ro In at tarkle. The new rule in this war do not prevent the posibihty of good llne-bucking tarkles still being made excellent tse of. The other charges are minor, and do not affect the game to any noticeable extent. On the whole, therefore.

I should aav thst the rul-s this yer will make practically no difference in the game, ana that misa plays and roughness will he lust as prevalent now as they were last Fall." The Cornell football team Is still in a rather chaotlo state, but-the condition at Ithaca in general are much Improved over a week ago. The two recent practice games enabled the coaches to site up the men, and the Indications now are that when the tims for the big games with Prince-ton. Colmbla, and Pennsylvania arrive the Itnafns will have a creditable team. Coaches Warner and Pureeil have been Terklsf with the rrea materia! aa never before. In practice no distinction Is made between the 'Varsity and second 'Varsity, but the best men are placed or) epposlte aide, In order to stiffen the wrk.

The only cue as to who are the most likely men for the final eleven lies inj the fact that the following have been taken to the training tablet Lawrance, left end; Voris, left tackle; Wilder, left guard: Fetter and Davltt. certie: Hunt, riant rufctfd; Tavek and Costello, right tackle; Tourison, right im; -sumrri tuitr iucx; McAllister, tail back. fcia Itics. Cordon, and gnlder, half backs. i i i It is becoming more evident every day that the Corned wilt have little trouble In developing a fast back fluid.

McAllister, the frehman full back, is proving to be the greatest ground gainer that the Ithacan have had In many day. Snider. Rice, and Gordon are also fast men. When Coffin and' Brewster get back into the work the combination back oC the line will be formidable The weak spot at present Is at quartet" back. Brewster, last year's star, has not yet taken up (the work, and the coaches are disappointed! the candidates who have been trying for the position.

i The line Is developing as fast as contd he expected. The work of Wilder, the freshman, who was early in the week shifted to left tackle, commends itself to the coachea. Ccstello is not yet playing aa he: ought to on the right side of the line because he la not familiar with the position, end he may be changed aguini Voris is working hard, while Fsvek. a freshman, who haa lately been taken to. the training tatle.

glvea promise of being a good man. Capt. Hunt is playing fine game, and will bo one of the strongest guards in the country. The return of last year's centre. Davltt, has brightened the prospects for thejeentre of the line.

Fetxer, big freshmanj la doing creditable work, and the veteran will have to work hard to dlsDlace him. Both men may be used somehow in the line in the important ootball under Johnny Hart snappy coaching has been given new Ufa it Amherst this past week. Palmer at left guard is playing bis; usual steady gamei while pierce, left tackle, has been out of condition for the put few days. The loss of the two ends, Rafftry on account of professionalism and Priddy because Of. faculty has been felt Delabarre, "OH.

and Daniels, '05, are at present the most promising men for ends. Howard. '04, last year's centre. Is playing right tackle, while Behrenda, HSL plays centre. Of the fresh men Searls is out for end; Dortflinger, full pacx: usDorne ana wrignt, guard; JAVtort and Miiugtin, tackle.

'07, ha Srovea r.tnoseir a valuable man alf. I rlgh The outlook for a good football team this season at iMercersburg College lis exceed-; tngly bright, considering that only a few of last season's regulars are out for 'places. The squad of candidates numbers about; sixty. Thej following schedule hag been ar ranged: Oct: 1, Franklin and Marshall Re-i serves. at Mercersburg; Oct.

JO, Albright at Mercertburg; Oct. 17, University of Pennsylvania 'Freshmen, at Mercersburgi bure: Oct. SJ. Wyoming- Seminary, at Mer Nov. Iawrenceville, at Law- renceville, N.

J. .1 Athletic Interest at the University Of Pennsylvania is centred on the football team. The general sentiment isi that the material If there, and It must be developed. The general high standard of this year's candidates! seemed to; give the jasjplrants for the eleven an exaggerated idea fcf thQir powers, butj the games so far have! served to dispel that Illusion. Last Wednesday in 4he game against Franklin and Marshall, the Quakers showed that they must work if they are to have i any chance I in the coming games.

i Undoubtedly Penn has better; material this season than she has had for the past five years. With careful coaohlSg and steady work on the part of the candidates Pennsylvania rhouid have a very successful seasoa. i She shouid win ever game with the exception of that with; liarvard. and the Orlm.on can be assured of ia bard battle. IDetxgar at right end Is practically sure of hbt place.

Corson at quarter back seems to be a fixture and he has every appearance of developing Into a star. Hlg ability in running back punts and his sure-ness In cajlchinjr will so a long way (toward landing htm in this, position. Draket Reynolds, Smith, and Bennett are the best of the back field candidates. i Masters! and Davis are two others who have, considerable ability as half backs. The make-up of the line la still problematical.

McCabe and Taylor are having a hard tussle for centre, wjth the charicea In favor of the Xavicr man. MeOabe. Zilllgan erns to be the likeliest candidate for left guard, aiid his weight and strength are sure to make him a valuable man for the rlace. Ptckarnkl. Hoffman, and Mitchell are otherguard candidates, and at present it seems I an even race.

Ziegler. -at the rirht tackle. looks as If he would make good. Stewart and Kase are the main can didates ror tne other tackle. -Ksse siwelght and general ararrensiveness will i probably give him the preference.

Weede and Whetstone lead the candidates tor left end. I i hi With th close of the third week )t toot- ball practice at Princeton the elefeii Is being gradually rounded shape. nine of last year's eleven in college, Coach Ilillebranfl had a nucleus to begin on. and the new material of this year's entering class should give Princeton a far better eleven than the past three Davis, Henry. Tooker, and Crawford wll.make competition fcr the end positions literest- nr.

Pe Vitt will probably be folind at either right guard or tackle, and pooney keeps up his good work on the ether pido of the line Jbe two will make Princeton's tackle positions well nigh impregnable. Barney and Rafferty at present ht ve the call tor the guard positions. Burke, who last year was put out with a broken collarbone, will run the t.ih this year, but If disabled Vettestein will make a good substitute. At present Foulkej. Hart, and McClave are ccupving the back positions, with Karer, Munn, Willock.

and Bard wll up in the lead. i The coaches are voicing the sentiments of the student body in not working their men too hard In dally practice, the good condition of the players and the aptrlt with wnicn tney enter into tne worit being in marked contrast to former years.

Oct. 3. But for the sensational sixty-yard run by ti IchoU. Maine which resulted In a touch-down. would have held Harvard to an Ve score on Soldiers' Field this afternoon.

The run was made at the very beginning bf the game. After this Maine played thecrim-son eleven to a gaining cpnslst-enly through the line and showing uk very strong also on the defense. Nichols's touch-down was the- (result of the best team work that has been seen on Soldiers' Field this yearJ Twice! lb was tackled, fairly, but each time he kpt his feet and was dragged free by Parklnspn. and Shea, who put up a wonderful Interference tor him. Then, too, at the very last Bailey would undoubtedly have tackled Him in the open field had not Hurley gvtn him his shoulder and sect the Maine plnyer to the ground.

On the next kick off, however. N'oyes fnmbled and Harvard bed good Chance to show what she could do on the! defense. Maine used a tandem play very effectively, making a straight gain of forty-five yards with It in the first hair. It looked for a time as If the visitors score, but Harvard held for downs on the' tVenty-fire-yafd line and al thirty-yard i ran by Nichols took the baft out of dangtr snd left It In the middle of the field when tlroe ws I No scoring was done in the second half, the teams showing up about evenly.

Georgetown waa defeated by Princeton this afternoon by the close score ef to 0. The game was a big surprise.

This enabled Georgetown to put Princeton on the defensive on her one-yard line.
