It is also the first victory of the Crimson over one of the Big Four in the Harvard stadium since it was built in WOG. The Tigers found in the Crimson line a wall that was impenetrable. Their speedy backfield failed to make any material gains. Pendleton. the star, failed to pull off any of his sensational long rune, while Waller, the crack halfback.

failed to get off any of his smashing through the line. Hobe Baker. the hero of the Dartmouth game, was the only Tiger to do any damage. his running back of punts being of high order. The Tiger line was of much the same caliber as the Crmson.

The store made In the, first half of the game was a fair Indication of the playing strength of the contesting teams, although the ball was in Minnesota's territory, during the greater portion of the second half.

Howe in two line plunges put the ball on the Gophers' one yard line.

and by superb defensive work the Maroon and Gold line held on the next two plays, and the Gophers were saved from a touchdown. This was the only real exhibition of good defense put up by the Gophers. By an official decision, which Referee Maske characterized as the hardest rullnghe ever made, Illinois at another time Waft discriminated against by chance. The ball was on the Illinois one -yard line. and Silkman attempted to punt from behind the line.

One of the Visitors was struck by the ball, the play being then classed as offside. and the ball went to the Gophers, who pushed It over the line, McAlmon making his second touchdown. Illinois' best ground gainer was a spread play and double pass, which seemed to daze the Gophers until the second half. when at -its solution the visitors resorted to the old style of play. The tackling of Illinois was superior to that of Minnesota, though marked improvement was noted in this phase of the latter's play.

11 7 I. Crimson Punter Outkicks The game proved to be a punting duel between Felton of Harvard and Dewitt. the former outkicking his Tiger rival. On several occasions Felton's kicks carried so far that Harvard was able to force Princeton to kick. and the Crimson brought the ball Within striking distance of the.goal and gave Brickley his chances to make his scores.

Harvard did not try a forward pass during the game. while Princeton tried ten. succeeding in four, two of which resulted in the Tigers onlyscore. Capt. 'Wendell started the game, but was forced to retire in the second Period on account of his injured foot.

Harvard 'won the toss and chose to receive the kickoff, defending the north goal. received the ball on his fifteen yard line and ran it in five yards. Here an exchange of punts followed, with no gain for either erde, putting the ball on Princeton's line. Pendleton made twenty Yards and another exchange of kick gave the ball to Harvard on the twenty yard bine. No Score in First Quarter.

Felton' got off one of his long kicks over Pendleton's bead, the Princeton back finally falling on the ball on his seven yard line. Three rushes followed, making first down for Princeton. The next play by Pendleton brought the ball to Princeton's twenty-three Yard line, ending the quarter, with no scoring -for either side. The second quarter opened with the boll In the Tigers' possession on the Princeton, twenty-three yard line. Dewitt attempted to punt, but kicked the ball almost straight 11 in the air.

Harvard recovered the oval sod successive rushes by Brickley and Hardwick took the ball to PrineetOn'S fifteen Yard Brickley made the first score of the game by a drop kick from the twenty-three yard line. Brickley then kicked off to Pendleton, who ran the ball to his forty yard line. An exchange of punts followed, ending with the ball in Princeton's possession on the Tigers' thirty-five yard line. Then the Tigers pulled off the two sensational forward passes Which resulted in their only score. the half ending Immediately after the kickoffs with the bail- in Princeton's possession on her twenty-five yard line, after trying two un, kuccessful forward passes.

Using advanced football with splendid effect, Purdue's husky football eleven downed Northwestern yelterdaylat Evanston, 21 to 6. The offense of the Boilermakers was sparkling, especially the use of the forward pass, and the plunging and open field running of Oltphant, enabled the Indiana eleven to the Northwestern. The Purple started off brilliantly and by hurricane rushes and one corking forward pass scored a touchdown in the firs( four minutes of play.

They never scored again, though they were close enough once to try a goal from the field. Fish's Punting Checks Purdue. Hightower displayed some good open field running, and Fish gave a fine exhibition of kicking, his long and well placed punts doubtlessly preventing a larger count by the visitors. Purdue showed a marked im- I provement over a week ago, when it lost to Chicago. Capt.

Hutchinson sprung a lot of new offensive formations, and the accuracy on the execution of. the forward pass helped greatly in gaining the victory. There was a crowd of 6IYKipresent.and the segregated rooting of the Methodists was exceptionally good. All the male rooters sat In one section and the co-eds in anotper, by order of the facultyl. Several of the fellows cheated, however, and escorted the fair ones to the game.

Then left them in the co-ed section till the game was over. First Quarter.

and Eddie Gillette. the Badger quarter back; was the main factor in the Badger team. This player is a clean handler of the ball he -uses rare Judgment in the selection of his playe, and he is an open field runner of the Steffen-Capron-MoLl variety. Although he made a bad blunder in attempting to pick up the ball. which he should have allowed to roll across the goal line.

the masterly way In which he guides his team is commendable. For Chicago, Norgren, Grey. and Pierce played good football, Capt. Carpenter was a marked man, and most of the Badger plays were sent over or across him. Witit the exception of Gillette.

Capt. Hoeffel. Tandberg, Bright, and Bergerperformed stellar stunts for the Badgers. -s dinal eleven scored one touchdown in the second quarter as a result of good football. Tandberg went over for the-initial score aft': er the Badgers had worked the bell down the field by hard driving football; In this period, the had the ball on Badger six inch line, but poor Judgment in the selection of plays prevented a In the third period Berger, who rerotheed Bright and who looks to be the best of the Badger backfield; a player.

with plenty of drive, drove off Chicagos right tackle for the second score. Scoring in Final Session. In the final seseion both elevens registered points. After Gillette had made his fumble of a punt. Smith.

who replaced Paine at quarter back. carried the ball over for the first score. Berger and Tandberg then car-red it acrosa the Maroon line after the Badgers hag worked the pigskin down the field. The Maroon second score was the result of a forward pass. Smith to Huntington, in-- which the latter ran thirty yards for a touch- down.

There is no disputing the fact that it would have been a much closer game if Chi-- cage bad taken more chances. The MaT001 backs were unable to penetrate the heavy. Badger line, and their energy was spent by futile It was not until the third quarter that cage opened up. In the first two quart.ers or first half. the Maroons did not epring the playe which Stagg had planned for the game.

The post er and energy of the Chicago eleven had been spent In ite useless efforts to gain ground by use of straight plays. To this fact alone must Chicago's; decisive defeat attributed. If the 011 Boys had. played a. open game from the start the, final score would have been closer.

line, but each time the Methodists succeeded In preventing a score. Fish, the tall Purple guard. each time punted the bail out of danger by great kicks of fifty yards. Toward the close of the period Hightower, Northwestern's speedy quarter back, caught a punt on his own fifteen yard line and made a sparkling return of forty yards. This Inspired the home team and it rushed the ball to Purdue's twenty-live yard line.

Here Fish tried a dropkick. which went wide. The quarter ended with the ball in the Purples possession on Purdue's twenty-five yard line. Score: Purdue, Northwestern, O. Third Quarter.

Hutchinson kicked off to Lemke. who dropped the ball when tackled on his own twenty-five yard line, and a Purdue man fell on the oval. Purdue failed to gain, however. and Northwestern took the ball on downs. After several exchanges of kicks Purdue took the ball in the middle of the field and by splendid use of the forward pass carried it to the Purple twenty yard line.

Here Hutchinson tried a drop kick that failed and Fish soon punted neck to Purdue's forty yard line. The ball was given to Phelps, a substitute half, and he circled right end, shook off three different tackles, finally eluding Hightower In the back of field, and going sixty yards for a touchdown.
