73 N. Y. U. TAKES DEAR OLD RUTGERS, 48-0 22,500 See Violet Square Starting Down the Lon Lon Trail Old 75 to 0 Score SUNDAY NEWS, OCTOBER 21, 1928 JACK FARRELL. BACK in 1915, according to statistics furnished by the Nev York university handbook of historical events, a ruthless band of football marauders came, up from New Brunswick, N.

And that, dear; people, is some- thing -that calls for. vengeance, i Thirteen years is a long while; to i wait to even a score, but -yesetrday was the day, of reckoning for this i band Of Jersev Diarskin toters. and they paid dearly for the sins of their football forebears. Median's vengeful warriors took them there Rutgers fellows out before 22,500 customers flnH Hra thim 'nil nvpp rHja Yankee stadium greensward.

The score was 48 to 0. If we omitted a touchdown" or two, beg pardon. It was almost a physical impossibility to keep up with the count once the Violet warriors got under way. The sum total of the day's depredations was seven touchdowns, one of which necessitated Mike Riordan a breath-taking run of 93 yards by Iron Mike Riordan. That is quite a distance to negotiate even in a foot race, wThere there are no grabbing tacklers reaching out to dump you in your tracks.

Mike had to elude the entire eleven Rutgers players to make the grade, but he left the last outpost 35 yards in his wake. Ken Strong, who is- going out in earnest this year for All-American honors, accounted for three of the five touchdowns. With such worthy aids as Riordan, H. Dudley Hormel, the pint-sized back, Barrabee, and Follet, ran through the wall of "Scarlet Jerseys as though he had his course charted in advance. What On Defense from Start.

Rutgers spent whatever resist ance they brought over from the banks of the Raritaniear old Rari tan trying to stave off the inpvrtahlu in the first half. Thev were busy defending their -goal from the first few minutes after the ball- was put into play, right up to the final blast of the referee's but their defensive was well nigh perfect that is, for the first two periods. The Violet scored in every peri-j od; but not until the old steam roller' got functioning properly in the third chapter did the game take on the semblenee of a rout, Rutgers could do but little on the ground, but the way, they handled the pigskin in the air was astonishing if not a Twice in the first half the camped on the fringe of the Rut- -i; it L.i I' Its SJJil- 7 sewtosku, Barabee- sehneW-r POB.

(Harvard) game late in the.i first period some mean Rutgers tacklers insisted on squattang xn his- 120 pounds all in a bunch so that Mee-han w-as forced to extricate him from the lineup to let him get breathing spell. Every time this observer looked up from his typewriter the Rabbit was being pulled from under a pile of squirming scarlet jerseys. He was easy to push over but hard to keep down. H. Dudley came back again to invite a few more pile-ups in the final quarter, but before the boys could bag him he grabbed a pass from Strong and ran 41 yards for the final touchdwon.

Rosen played a brilliant offensive and defensive game for Rutgers. In fact, he got so tired booting the ball out of the danger zone that he was lifted out of the line- up and put back no less than three times during the course of the pro ceedings. At one time when a substitute was sent to relieve him, Rosen refused to be separated from his buddies. No, Not So Bad! It took nearly five minutes for his mates to convince the persistent young man that he should obey orders from the bench. The Violet suffered innumerable 15-yard penalties for offside plays and other more grevious offenses.

Were they awarded all the ground they gained by hard fighting they probably would 'have succeeded in wiping out that old 75 to 0 defeat of thirteen years vintage. As it. was, they didn't do so bad, did they? (Other pictures on page 80) C. C. N.

Y. DOWNS DREXEL ELEVEN BY 26-6 COUNT Scoring three touchdowns in the first quarter and another in the second, City College defeated the Drexel Institute eleven of Philadelphia yesterday at the Lewisohn stadium by a 266 score. Much credit goes to the visitors for the game fight they put up in the second half, when they completely outplayed the local team. Danny and Leo Redmond, in the and Jim Kirkpatrick at end played-a remarkable game -for Drexel. kine-ups: C.

Lyle slipped through tho melee and leaped on the leather for a touchdown. Breithut obligingly kicked from placement for another point. A beautiful forward pass, Breithut to Bankart, worked wonders in the same period. Bankart had slithered his way to the goal and was standing there to receive the throw. He did, and wrenched the ball from the Columbians who were charging him, and there you have Dartmouth's second touchdown.

Again Breithut was credited with a kick and the score was Dartmouth 14, Columbia 0. Reece and Sutton, two Dartmouth subs, did some swell plunging and gaining in the second period, and it was Sutpn who crossed the goal again. He kicked accurately. Hence Dartmouth had 21 points. Columbia was a refreshed team in the third quarter.

Perhaps a between the halves lecture by Coach Crowley helped. It wasn't so long after that Phil Liflander broke away from the swarming mass of scrimmage, dodged and ducked and, without any sort of interference, weaved his way twenty-nine yards for Columbia's one touchdown.

A stalwart Dartmouth football team, with a gracious and beneficent gesture, today allotted the youths from Columbia a generous handicap, but resulting events proved its insufficiency. No, Columbia needed more than a handicap a more concerted attack, a wider diversification of plays, fewer gaping holes in its lines of defense and less frequent lapses into complete befuddlement. Alton Marsters, the leading point creator, among the eastern institutions for the improvement of skulls, was kept on the Dartmouth sidelines this benign afternoon, but his schoolmates carried on. This intelligence, drab, as suredly, to the folks on Morning- side Heights, is to the specific effect that Dartmouth was far superior in today's s-hin barking festivities and whipped Columbia on the gridiron, 21 to 7. Marsters Not Needed.

Marsters wasn't missed or needed. The students among these hills, while confident, thought that perhaps the Indians would be measurably handicapped by Alton's absence from the Dartmouth lineup but they simply overestimated the strength of Columbia, or the strength that Columbia showed today. Marsters, comfortably blanketed on the green bench and nursing a-twisted ankle, saw Columbia go through "the first two periods without making so much as first down. The young chaps tutored by Professor Charles Crowley seemed entirely bewildered and baffled in the first half. They handled the ball as though it were as hot as molten metal, letting it through their arms with distressing frequency, In short, Columbia didn't seem to know what' it about.

Perhaps they had been reading too much about the tantalizing overhead -plays so often used by Dartmouth and the tricky legerderniairi of -the running backs, ever anticipating that didn't turn out the way, it was expected. Dartmouth Stays on Ground. i Dartmouth did pass today, but did not resort to aerial onslaughts as steadfastly as this team often does. Then, too. Hank a fine 1 Morningside back, was so severely Norman ISankart injured in the first period that he was removed to the field house for repairs, never resuming his place.

From a technical standpoint, I today's game was not one of those which will cause old grads thirty years from now to recollect and through their store teetch whistle, "Say, do you remember Dartmouth, too, was pretty careless about the way the ball was handled and often was penalized for being off-side or for holding. There were none of those scintillating 60-yard dashes through a broken field for touchdowns, and no crucial moments.

Dartmouth simply got Columbia into a corner' in the first half and played with it then as a cat plays witb a permitting Phil Lif-lainder to, break; out once for' a touchdown as though to permit a relief from the -monotony. Quarterbaek Sheridan, it seemed, used poor judgment in the first period when, standing about five yards from the Columbia goal, he attempted to catch Dick Black's ount.
