Colgate's nine points reprer.nt-ed a safety, that resulted from a blocked kick; a touchdown that followed the interception of an attempted pass, and an easy goal after touchdown. All the scoring was done in the fourth period, after three fruitless quarters during which neither team could generate an attack that was good for long or consistent gains.

Early Attempts Fail. The Maroons battled briskly to get Capt. Eddie Tryon loose, but never quite succeeded until the last few minutes of play. The Tigers worked just as hard to shake Jake Slagle loose and once they almost succeeded. Early in the second period Jake swung free around the Maroon's right flank and skidded twenty-three yards before Tryon, tb CnlfTJlfj eafoftr man Ki'm was 7 to 0.

A strong, punishing assaulting machine, the University of Chicago was supposed to have been drilled in all the elements of this great collegiate game and in all the little niceties of the sport by Coach Alonzo Stagg. Chicago Outclassed. But Chicago today was outclassed in every way. It was outclassed even more than the score the ribs of opposing football players, backed up to kick from placement.

Going into the fourth quarter, with the rain falling harder than ever, both teams wearing rubber breeches, it looked as though neither team could possibly score without the aid of the well known breaks.

Twice thereafter Chicago got within a dozen yards of Perm's goal line, but was halted by the doughty Pennsylvanians; halted bruskly and effectively. And still it rained.

Early in the fourth period Tryon's punt reached Sam Ewing on the bound and the Tiger quarterback let it roll past him in the hope that it would skid across the goal line for a touchback. i But two Colgate players leaped upon it on the Tiger's 3 yard mark and Dignan was forced to punt from behind the goal line. Man-katr the Colgate right tackle, blocked the kick and in the ensuing scramble Dignan himself fell upon the ball for a safety that counted two points for Colgate. With only two minutes and almost a 100 yards to go, Slagle tried a forward pass which was intercepted by George Brewer on the Tiger's 14 yard line. On the next play, an end reverse broke out of a shift, Tryon got loose around Princeton's left flank and sprinted across the goal line for a touch- i tt ir a Sophomore star and older act in Columbia victory.

Kot for twenty-five years did Pennsylvania and Chicago meet on the gridiron until this uncomfortable afternoon and then Chicago bumped into a forward pass which resulted in a victory for the Blue and Red. It wa3 the bald-headed Al Kruez who inaugurated the soggy altercation which was to become a triumph for the Quakers, lie toed the ball neatly through the gloomy ambient and it was received by S. Rouse, a Chicago youth. The Maroon was unable to cope with the line strength of the Pennsylvanians and was forced to punt. Then Messrs.
