Nov. 10. (Special.) Williams opened its cam- paign fir the 1928 "Little Three" football championship this afternoon by marching to a 16 to 13 triumph over the fighting WesfCyan eleven, champions of 1927, after a hectic battle which will live long in the memories of the 5.000 who saw these ancient rivals.

The victory gave wn- i hams the lead in the series. The proud Purple, in its Berkshire stronghold, won after a terrific cirug- file. Bill Wood's Wesleyan eleven scored once in the first and then again in the second while the best Williams could do was to piuh one toucnaown across tne wesieyan line in the first half, leaving the total 13 to 7 in favor of the Nutmegs, Williams Comes to Life. It was a rejuvenated Williams team which cam on the field in the third quarter. The attempts of the Wes-1 icyan offense to break through for another touchdown were turned back, while the Purple once more marched down the field for a score and oncej again maae gooa its try lor point fl'noio oy End'.

Waterbury Soccer Kickers Play Tie With Yale Eleven Nov, 10. The Yale soccer team today played the Waterbury State League team, a tie. 1 to 1 game. As Waterbury has won the state championship annually for three years, the collegians were delighted at their achievement. Waterbury opened the scoring in the third period when Howard, diminutive outside right, kicked a long goal.

Ten minutes before the game closed Yale knotted the count when Sherry Smith received a paw from Knowhon, crashed the Ueing goal. The Yale varsity defeated 1 he Kngle Field Club of New Jersey, 2 to 1, and the Yale Irishmen turned bicl; the Erasmus Hall School team of Brooklyn, 5 to 1. Princeton Keeps Slate Clean Bv 25 To 12 Triumph liopcr Sends in Regulars to Stop Threats of Washington Lee Princeton, Nov. 10 i AP.) In a loosely played game in Palmer Stadium this afternoon, Princeton's football team defeated Washington Lee 25 to 12 in the last of three intersectional contests on the Princeton schedule. Coach Bill Roper Marled his re- serves against the southerners and saw them get away to a lead of two touchdowns in the first period.

The Tigers first go to the 7-yard line, but their attack was repulsed. A few minutes later a long pass from Lowry to Levick paved the way for the first score. Bill Scarlett went over from the 8-yard line on two plunges. Following the kickoff, Faulkner of the L. team fumbled on his own 25-yard line, and three Tiger men recovered the ball.

Bennett hit the line for ten yards and then scored Lowry's pass and crossed the goal line. Both teams had an attack of fumbling in the second quarter. The southerners finally got the ball on Princeton's 3(i-yard hue, Coach Roper put the Princeton varsity on the field to stave off a score. Bit White went over. Bennett returned the next kickoff 55 yards deep into the visitors territory, but the half ended before a scoring chance developed.

With the exception of Miles and Wittmer. Princeton's entire first team was in the field for the third quarter, Requardt's run of 55 yards after recovering a pass from Bennett enabled him to score a touchdown after several plunges at the line. To score, their final touchdown, the Nassau team took the ball at midfield and marched to the goal line without interruption. A long pass from Bennett to Lawler featured the advance and put the ball within scoring distance. Noman went over for his team's final points.

Princeton launched an Impressive aerial attack, but Eberhart intercepted one of Lowry's tosses and raced 70 yards for a touchdown late In the final quarter. A crowd of 10,000 wit nessed the game.

after toi.clMlo Lowry. (place- I I i I ontinued from First Page.) Had so coveted. Carrideo. ol Notre Dame kicked off and the quartet which always is part of the Army locution to receive a kickoff, actual- aside to permit the bound- ball to reach the amis of Cagle. i Taking the ball on his 15-yard I Mark, the doughty "Red" was off the fiem, knees flying high.

ivjiV. arm bowling over tackier, un-iil hi interference had been smeared bv Notre Dame. Then he went alone, (edging, whirling, diving until he cached the enemy's 30-yard line and was forced outside by PYed Collins. Spectators were on their feet and a fieady roar such as the Yankee Stadium never before has heard arose from the crowded stands. Long Pass Fails.

Notre Dame, amazed by the charge of "the Red," called for time out and took too much of it, to be penalized five yards for delaying the game, and Army was only 25 yards from a touchdown and possible victory. Cagle. 1" im far behind the line, essayed the that scored against Harvard, lYir.ing a pass to his Tight, then MILLER. hurtling it far to the left. Ed Mes-singer was out there to receive it on the three-yard mark but Carideo cut down the ball to make the pass incomplete.

Again Cagle went far back, received the ball and poised to throw but instead he speeded around the Notre Dame left and behind good interference to a first down on the 10-vard mark. "Biff" Jones, coach of the Army, must have been thinking of what Rockne had done only a few minutes before, for he ordered Hutchinson to warm up, then told him to sit down again. It was evident that Jones was about to resort to strategy in a last desperate effort to win. Delay cast the Army five yards and perhaps the' victory at this point. Then Cagle dropped back and hurled another pass, which grounded.

Hutchinson again was off the bench and this time he rushed upon the field to take the place of Cagle, while the crowd looked on in astonishment. His first effort was a pass and Army went back to the 20-yard line bs penalty for two incomplete forwards. Then Hutchinson shot the ball straight over the center of the line and Gibner, racing across the field, grasped and held It as Fred Collins bore him down on the Notre Dame four-yard mark. Quickly the Army host lined up again and Hutchinson this time leaped headlong into the mass of humanity that blocked the way. And Notre Dame Wins.

The whistle that ended the game was blowing as the referee untangled that heap of arms and legs and when the ball had been uncovered it lay two feet from the goal line and Notre Dame had conquered Army. Thus did Army and Notre Dame entertain the greatest throng that ever viewed a football game in the Bast, a conflict that will be discussed for seasons to come. Jones spoke wisdom the night before the game when he said that Army never under-lated the teams of Knute Rockne. The Soldiers were outplayed, except in the first period there can lie no doubt of that. "Butch" Niemiec was a better kicker than "Mule" Murrel.

the West Bend booter sending many beautiful shots down the gridiron to keep his team from danger. A perfectly placed kick, which rolled outside at Army's two-yard mark, put Notre Dame in a itrategic position early in the sec-end period and three times Niemiec rant long boots over the Army goal line. Great Running Backs. Johnny Chevigny, Fred Collins. Niemiec and Jim Brady started in the backfield of the Irish and once their attack was under way there was no stopping them.

A fumble by Collins probably cost a Notre Dame touchdown In the second quarter. Tackled but never downed until they literallv bit the dust, these flashing ball-carriers reminded of the days when Tourav Crowley, Don Miller, Harry sr-ihldreber and Elmir Lavden did so FRED i New Haven. Nov, 10. Maryland kicked over the traces in the Bawl again Ihis afternoon and once more i played the pan of a little giant I killer. A fhUilinB mud eleven of I weights buried Yule's hopes in the grave of a 6 to 0 triumph In what i will go down as one ot tfte most amazing upsets of a season already generously with surprising I outcomes.

I Maryland won on its merits. The "Old Liners" conquered Vale's best team and not the Mi reserves, whom many figured would be sent out after the first lew minutes of the game. Every Yale regular except Hubbard was on the Held at kickoff limn, and even Hubbard was hustled Into the game in the lust period in a desperate effort to bolster Yule's tlcve-llke defense. Yale, even before going down Ignominious defeat, was dealt a harsh Kow. In the ilr.it period Johnny Garvey, the are of the Blue plungers, the team's best punter, was carried oil the Held, one leg drag-Ring helplessly.

He was rushed to a hospital for an X-ray. Uliiily Deserved Win. The little band from down South outplayed the Elis in every department of football and richly deserved to win, Yale bquandered seven scoring chances losuic Maryland's 30 yard line. Trailing by ti-0 in the final minutes of play, a- break gave the Blue a first ciown eleven yards from the Maryland citadel, but the rock-ribbed southern line held at its own four yard stripe and an Eli pass on fourth down grounded in the end zone. The garni one of the most hair-raising played in the Bowl in several seasons.

There was an cn. of fumbling and each team was presented with golden opportunities. It was Yale and not down-trodden Maryland that got a bit the better of the breaks. Yale, favored even by the gods of good fortune, could not capitalize its breaks. Maryland turned one of its hand outs from Fate Into the only touchdown of the game.

For two periods and part of the third the two teams fought up and down the fkl in a gruelling struggle that had the" sma'l crowd thrilled with the turn the game had taken and fairly amawd at the ability of Maryland to not only the Blue players in check, but outplay them as well. Then came a break for Maryland, and Maryland pounced on It like a hungry hawk pouncing on a helpless chicken. It was Maryland's ball far back on its own 31 yard line. Roberts lifted a long, booming punt that soiled over the head of the surprised Johnny Hoben, Yale safety man. "Mickey" Madigan, Maryland's heroic center who was a bulwark every minute, wn.s down the field lik" a streak, right at Hoben's heels.

The Ell quarterback clutched for the ball and then let it s'in throuRh his fin- sjcrs. Madican. racing a vara or so brhind, swept nnst. Hoben and fell on the ball on Yale's 14 yard Maryland's Big Chance. That was the kind of a chance Maryland had been looking for.

Three times Snyder tried to crack the Yale line s'Kl three times he was hurled back, It was fourth down, nine yards to go, the ball on Yale's 13 yard line. Evans, the Maryland auarterback. dropped back and everything pointed to a try for a field goal. Evans wiped his foot and went through the motions of a player about to kick. The ball was snapped.

Evans waited a brf two seconds and then. Instead of kicking, he straightened up and shot a forward pass to his own right. "Rnitz" Snyder, Maryland's great fullback, jogged over near the sidelines, snatched the pass out of the air at the eight-yard line and oui-sprinted Lampe and Hoben in a race for the goal line. Lamp was completely by the plav, and he and Hoben errabbed frantically at Snyder ns he flew across the last white line. The kick for the extra point hit the uprights and bounded back.

but. as it turned out. the point was not needed. Maryland had won a notable victory on that one cleverly conceived and beautifully executed forward pass. Never was Yale able to show a sustained running attack in Maryland territory.

The concrete wall of "Old Line" forwards refused to yta'd precious ground when their goal posts loomed behind. And never was Yala able to complete its passes when a touchdown appeared as almost certain reward for completion. Yale was outplayed, outfought, outsmarted. To cap the climax of a bitter day for Yale, the Ells reached Maryland's 26, 25 and four yards lines in three successive threats in the final quarter. Each of the three times Yale lost the ball on downs.

Thats what that lightweight line of fightinsr furies was doing to what was left of Yale's running attack and the eagle-eyed Maryland backs were doing to the Eli's desperate thrusts through the air. "Snitz" Snvrier. the southern fullback, wonted the Eli forwards to tiiesss ind went sailing through them fmvnne srain another, several I fines Snyder flew in to the open and pot clpar rf all save the Blue safety I keep (iarvey Out New llitveu, Nov. 10. (Special.i It wrus mid at the Yale football offices tonight that the injury to Johnny Garvey, Injured hallbnck, was foi to be merely a sprain, but that it couia not be stated whether he could play again this season or not, The statement was based on tho first examination of his injured leg at (lie Yale infirmary where he was taken.

Another examination will be made tomorrow. I 0 man. When Maryland was stooned Roberts, their halfback, drove long punts down the field. Evans their quarterback, appeared to be using uncanny judgment In constantly applying making Yale, rathei than his own team, fight with the dopRedness of an eleven that is working uphill. 'Mickey" Madigan, the center, was all over the field, dropping on fumbles, covering punt.

topping, Yale plunges and helping "MICKEY" MADIGAN, cover Eli ellgibles on pass plays. Rib-initzky played a whale ol a gain? a right tackle. These were Maivlinu heroes, Uough the whoi. team, man for man, did a superlative Job that old Maryland will talk about from now to the end of the trail. Maryland stormed into Yale territory in the first two minutes of the game.

Yale took the kick and, not getting anywhere punted to Maryland's 28 yard line. A plunge netted a vard and then Snyder went roaring through the left, side of the Ell line. He shot into the open, dodged the Yale secondary and fought his wav 23 yards to Yale's 42 yard stripe. Then an Evans to 'Roberts pass netted 12 yards, Snyder smashed througn left tackle again lor 12 more yards, plant- ing the ball on the Eli 15 yard line. But.

the first break went against Maryland. The ball was called back and the southerners penalized 15 Roberts tried a drop kick from 35 yards away that just missed clicking. About five minutes later Yale made i' only threat of the first quarter. Two Hoben to McEwen forward passes picked up 20 yards and Loud cracked into the line for five more. That put the ball 28 yards from Maryland's goal line, but Maryland, stopped three piays and Hoben's pass on tho fourth down grounded.

Neither team threatened again In that period, but Maryland held its own and a little better. Eddy Recovers Fumble. Yale was presetted with a golden opportunity on the first play of the second period. Snyder fumbled and Captain Eddy fell cn the ball on Maryland's 'is yard mark. But on the very first Eli offensive thrust Loud let the ball get away from him.

Madigan scooped it up and ran 23 yard. to hi: own 45 before he was hauled down. Loud came out immediately and Lame went in. There were no further threats in the first half. Opportunity, still trying vainly to get Yale's attention, knocked at the Eli door in the first minute of the third quarter, but Yale was not at home.

Hoben caught a Roberts punt on Marvland's 45 yard line and twisted, squirmed and fought his way back for 16 yards. That put the ball 28 yards from the Maryland goal line. One running play was stopped. A pass grounded. Lampe tried the line and picked up a scant yard.

And so, on fourth down, Hoben tried another pass, but it was batted down and Maryland took the ball on downs. After two plays Roberts sot away that tremendous punt that Hoben allowed to slip through his fingers Madigan was again Johnny-on-the-spot and Maryland struck through the air to get the touchdown already described. Snyder Gets Loose. A 38 vard run by Bnyder that brought" the ball from his own six vard line almost to the middle of the field was the only extraordinary fhing 'rift occurred afl-r thst until the last two minutjj of the third (Concluded on Page 10.) Atlanta, Nov. 10.

(AP.) Georgia Tech blighted Vander-bilt's Southern Conference football championship hopes here today by administering 19-7 defeat. A great ground gaining trio of Thomason, Lumpkin and Mizell carried the Yellow and White jto victory. Van-derbilt scored its only touchdown in the final quarter on a sensational 85 yard run by Brown, a line-man. e- that gained national many thing note. Niemiec passed, ran and kicked until Carideo relieved Brady in the fourth quarter.

This little fellow, formerly one of the greatest kickers in New York State prep schools, went so far as to attempt a goal from placement 50 yards from the posts in his relentless efforts to win. Then he passed and time after time headed through center for first downs. Chevigny's gains were spectacular, most of his lunges being directed through the center of the line, while the fullback, Collins, skirted the ends and sliced the tacklers. When the human heap piled in front of him Chivigny went over the top for yard upon yard. Collins, one arm in a cast as a result of being broken early in the season, flashed hither and yon and Army never dropped him without gain.

Miller Great Leader. All along the line Notre Dame played inspired football, born of an intense desire to rob Army of the chance for the national crown, for Captain Fred Miller and his stalwarts remembered what they suffered last season when West Point won. 27 to 0. From the first lmeup they ripped and tore at their foes and Army suffered most of the injuries in a bruising battle. Humber, Army guard, and Chevigny of Notre Dame had to be assisted from the field.

Miller, a millionaire in his own right, was the marvel or victorious line from his position at tackle. Never once did he' falter and when his part of a play was finished he rushed to the aid of others. Tim Moynihan, the pivot man, worked brilliantly throughout, stopping Cagle and Murrel on their excursions through center. Captain "Bud" Sprague and George Perry, veteran tackles of the Soldiers, were bulwarks but they could not carry the Notre Dame offensive on their own shoulders. Messinger assisted in every way a wingman knows but the other flank, guarded by Carl Carlmark, was not so strong as in previous games.

In two periods Cagle. always to be feared, was able to penetrate the Notre Dame defense and in the fourth his 55-yard sprint from kick-off showed the foe why he had already been selected as all-American timber. Cadets on Parade. The usual march of the Cadets, something becoming ordinary at East-em football games, preceded the contest and impeded the crowd attempting to reach the entrances. When Captain Sprague of the Army kicked off at 1:45 thousands were scurrying to their seats.

Brady received the kick at his 25-yard line and went jDack 12 yards. Niemiec. Collins and Chevigny plunged all with the same gain nothing. Niemiec lifted a short kick to "Srjike" Nave on the Army 40-yard mark. Of course the first to carry the ball was (Concluded on Page 10.) St.

Nov 10, iAP.) Je3se Hawley's current Dartmouth football team cannot buck a strong line. Brown proved this fact today when it gave the Indians their third consecutive defeat. The Bruins were not only able to stop most of Dartmouth's running attack at the scrimmage line, but ripped the left fide of the Green line to pieces for a touchdown in the first period and then completed two forward passes for a score in the second. Kevorkian, the Brown tackle, place-kicked twice to make the score 14 to 0. "Tuss" McLaughrys smart football maenme outpiayeu Dartmouth, in every department of game and kept wearers of the Green from seriously threatening the Brown goal at every stage.

The game was not a minute old before Captain Al Corn-sweet. Fogarty and Edwards ripped the Green line for a 45 yard advance which ended on Dartmouth's five yard line. Cornsweet Scores. Here, the Green line stiffened and threw Fogarty for a loss when he had but a yard to gain for first down. Al Marsters, the Green's best halfback, stood on his own goal line to punt.

The Brown forwards smashed through his line as if it was paper and Johnson, tire Brown rigra end, blocked the kick. Corn.weet recovered the ball on Dartmouth's five yard line and raced across for the first touchdown. Late in the second period Marsters punted to Fogarty on Brown's 40 yard line. Fogarty gained 12 yards around his left end on the 'first play. Edwards gained five more and then Fogarty flipped a pass to Marsan, his fast back, who raced to Dartmouth's 30 yard line.

Marsan and Edward; each hit the Green line for a first down and then Fogarty completed another pass to Marsan, who was downed on Dartmouth's five yard line. A lin eplay failed and Fogarty, on Brown's fourth down. completed his third successive forward to Marsan who took but two steps to score. Kevorkian, one of the three famed "Iron Men," still playing tor Brown, place-kicked both of the extra points. The other two members of McLaugh-rv's great 1921 team.

Captain Al Cornsweet and Farrier, the left guard, also had the satisfaction of plaving on Brown teams which have 'defeated Dartmouth, its major opponent, twice in three years. Green Passes Smothered. Dartmouth tried vainly to score in every period with it-, greatly overrated forward passing attack. Mar-I sters threw most of the aerials and he was able to comp'ete seven out of 13.

Howard Caplan. the Marylanders fullback, made the outstanding run of the game in the second quarter when he received the kick-off on his five-yard line and sprinted for a touchdown. He made the extra point.

Caplan tallied again in the third period after two forward passes got the ball to Columbia's 2-yard line, his try for the extra point failed.
