The score, a Cascadllla lost to the freshman on Parscll Field Saturday 12 to 0, In a gama in which the Bn school eleven at tlnvss showed flashei of good football but lacked thi necessary punch when near their on-ponent's goal line, The Maroou yearlings scored to touchdowns in the first period but failed to kick either goal. The" first score came soon after the klckoft when Colgate by steady plunge drove through the Cascadllla defenge to the goal line. The second came soon after when Colgate intercepted a forward pass on their own 20-yard line and took the ball down tte field In a steady march.

Cascadllla threatened to gcors several times during the rematuder of the game after working the ball well Into Colgate territory but seemed to lack the drive necessary to put it over.

Colgate put up as hard a battle as could be asked and made the varsity fight for every foot Tiio Marnnn came to Ithaca with a determination to win and It tackled hard and with more accuracy than has been the custom in years. Another good feature of the team play was the ability of the line to smash through the opposition to get the runner behind the line of scrimmage, often throwing Colgate back for losses.

Dartmouth Next. With the team cpming out of the game In good shape and with only minor bruises to be doctored, Coach Doble today started a week of intensive drill for the Dartmouth game Saturday, one of the two hardest battles on the Cornell schedule. Realizing that a victory over Dartmouth will make the season a success or a defeat make it a failure, no efforts will be spared this week to get the varsity in top shape for the battle with the Green. Dartmouth, victor over Cornell for several successive season, has disposed of Columbia, one of Its three big opponents, and is out to add a victory over Cornell to the list. The game is certain to be one of the hardest fought of the season and on the outcome will hinge a succesdful was only superior playing on me pan of Gil Dobie's pupils that gave the Cornellians the victory.

Colgate, at the very start of the game, electrified the 12.000 spectators by crossing the Cornell line on a crisscross after three fumbles by Cornell tha last of which was recovered by Colgate.

The summary of Saturday's con test: Cornell (31) Colgate (7) 7 to 0 Cornell came DacK wim puwei-ful drives not to be denied and before the Initial period was half gone had tied the score, on a pretty forward pass from closed formation, Kaw to Munns, the latter sprinting the five yarda necessary for the touchdown. Hansen's goal tied the score. The open field running of Kaw which wai responsible for many Cornell gains, coupled with Pfann off tackla plunges and line smashes by Lechler and Ramsey gave Cornell an-etfctr touchdown In the second period. Later In tha quarter after the varsity was iisid for downs on the 35 yard line Hansen tried a field goal which missed by inches.

The big guard was Injured during a play along the west side line while Colgate was carrying the ball. He was taken from the field unconscious and removed to the infirmary, where he did not regain consciousness until early Saturday evening. Jewell Welch Supplied with an abundance of over confidence, the Ithaca High School football team was held to a scoreless tie by North High of Syracuse Saturday, morning on Percy Field. The locals showed none of the brilliant team work which characterized the Blnghamton game last week.

Time and again when it seemed that Ithaca was on the way to a touchdown, one of the local backs would fumble and the ball would be recovered by Syracuse. Both teams worked the ball to its opponent's 20 yard line several times, but here the defense stiffened and the ball was lost on downs. Just before the end of the first half, North High threw a scare into the locals' camp when Gere, their right half back essayed a field goal from the 25 yard line. However, the ball went way wide of the goal posts, thereby leaving Ithaca High a clean slate so far this season. In the second half.

Brown's eleven took a slight brace and starting with the fourth quarter was advancing Left Halfback Boles Winter football tactics while Ithaca's best ground gainer was a forward pass formation. Boles, at fullback, made several good gains through the Syracuse line, but the local halfbacks persisted in running high with the ball which resulted in frequent fumbles. On the defense, Captain Tatiscore and Rogers did the best work. For North High, Delmonico the 275 pound guard and Gere, a good punter, were the stars. The work of the local team as a whole was a great disappointment to its followers.

Next Saturday, Ithaca High meets the much heralded Geneva High School team at Geneva, and if 40 supporters can be persuaded to accompany the team by train, a special coach can be secured from the Lehigh Valley management. Line-up and summary: I Fullback Score by periods: Ithaca 0 0 0 0 0 tlon from which forward passes and criss-crosses were repeatedly tried. The varsity showed its defensive training against this attack by repeatedly knocking down or Intercepting the passes. OnlTone, O'Connor to Burke, got away good. The pass was for 25 yards and with a good margin and a clear field Burke started, for the Cornell goal line, Gould, who had replaced Kaw, pulled the runner down after a 20-yard chase.

It is safe to say that Gould, the speediest man on the varsity squad, was the only player who could have caught the runner. Cornell scored twice in this period, the first time on straight line smashes and off tackle plays. The second came when Gouinlock, substituted for Munns, intercepted a pass at midfield and raced to the 10-yard line. On the next play Kaw smashed through for the touchdown. The Cornellians Saturday produced the best tackling that has been seen in some time.

Wiggins, Ithaca. I'm Rivaling in local enthusiasm Cornell's victory over Colgate was Pittsburgh's 35 to 0 defeat of the much touted Syracuse team at Pittsburgh, Saturday. Local fans, frankly tired of hearing and reading about "the mighty Orange machine, coming champions of the east," were highly delighted with the manner in which Glenn Warner's Pittsburgh players ran away with the game. Syracuse was helpless throughout the game and 6ucceeded in making but two first downs. "Chick" Meehan'g husky warriors, "the great" this and the "stalwarth" that were outclassed from start to finish, but as usual "went down to a glorious defeat, broken-hearted, but fighting with indomitable Orange spirit t0 the last whistle."
