Once also the Crimson tried for a roaJ from the field, but the ball was on the 50-yard line and far to one aide, so that it went wide. In ths second half, although Harvard in advancing- the ball for a distance than did the she could not force the pig-skin over for the needed score. HAJtVAHD'S THREE CHANCES LOST. Three times Harvard had the ball within the fifteen yard line and each time It looked though the Crimson waa going to soore.

"Perm" succeeded In getting the bail to Harvard's three-yard line In the second half, but the Crimson line braced and held for three downs. On the last down.

Starr, who ha 3 been put In the Cor Kernan at quarter, fell on the ball made a safety for Harvard.

Throughout the game the Quakers were a revelation to the thousands who had assembled to Bee an easy Harvard victory. Their play on the offence was fast, versatile and very powerful. In running back the and punts the Quaker backs always gained from fifteen to thirty-five yards. Smith and Stevenson were the chief performers In running back kicks. Ea the first half Stevenson caught a on his own 30-yard line, end, by the fastest running and the elippery and plucky dodging, got to Harvard's 45-yard mark before being brought to earth, a run of thirty-five yards.

Smith, on the kick-off In the second half, advanced the ball tTienty-flve yards before being downed. STEVENSON GAINS FOR PENN. Stevenson was also a shininp light In making quarterback runs. One In first half, before any score had been made, he got around Harvard's right end and ran for thirty yards before being tackled by Kerr.an, who was the only man between liirn and a touchdown. Smith and PJekartk' went through the Harvard line aimof-r at will in the first half.

fBT TO THB TKIBCSK-l Ithaca, N. Oct. Before a crowd of eigbt thousand cheering spectatom. Princeton defeated Cornell here to-day. 18 to 6.

In one of the beat played and moat stubbornly contested games ever witnessed on Percy Field. Both teams fourbt every moment of the 86-mlnute halves, and the Tigers won the laurels on their merits. For the first ten minutes of the contest Cornell played a magnificent game of footbaJl. rushed the Princeton players down the field, despite three penalties of fifteen yards each, and crossed the Tigers' goal line. As their team waa puahed faster and faster toward their goal the Princeton supporters arose from their seats and sang "Old Nassau," but It was for Halllday went over the line on a terrific line plunge Birmingham kicked the goal.

The Tigers then lined up, determined to resist Cornells attack. Tenney kicked off to Lynah on the 10-yard line. He ran up ten yards, and then Cornell failed twice to gain. The punt went to Tennty In mldfleld. Rulon-Miller at once gained four yards through the line, and en the next play Foulke went to Cornell's 35-yard line by circling Hackstaff's end.

The line held once, but on following signal fcund a hole just outside of Cook, and seared with the aid of excellent Interference. Cooney tied the score by kicking the goal Birmingham kicked off for Cornell. Rulon-Miller catching the ball on the goal line and advancing twenty-five yards before he wae downed. Foulko added five through Costello, and It began to look dubious for the Red and White. Rltter made three on a hurdle, Rulon-Mliler was thrown back and Tigers vara penalized, forcing Tenney to kick.

ball was brought back by the officials, and lost twenty yards. The Cornell line held. Tenney punted to his opponent's 25-yard line, from which romei: advanced twelve yards. Princeton got possession of the ball on a fumble, and at directed her attack on the Cornell line. Oderklrk was the weak spot which the Tigers hammered constantly, reaching Cornell's IC-yard line.

Downs was substituted for Oderklrk. and Furman then became the object of attack. Stanard made the touchdown for Princeton, tearing through Cottello and Furman. Cooney kicked the goal. The second half showed the superior strength of the Princeton team.

Time and again Cooney and Stanard were brought back of the line to rip up Cornells defence. The Tigers seemed to have better staving qualities than Ithacans. The ball frequently changed hands, but Princeton could not be stopped. The Tigers went ac far as Cornell's 6-yard line, where Cornell made desperate efforts to hold them. After gaining little more than a.

yard at a plunge. Short was called back, and, with practically the entire Princeton team behind mm. made the' third touchdown. Again Cooney kicked the goal, making the score 18 to 6 In Princetons was the mainstay of the Cornell defence all "through the game. Birmingham and Rice were the most effective on offensive playing.

PART Or THB CROWD THAT WATCHED THE GAMBL YALE BLUE TRIUMPHANT. BEATS COLUMBIA $4 TO 0. New-Haven Attack Gains Steadily Metzenthins Good Gains. Twelve thousand Dereons went to American League Park yesterday afternoon to see Tale give Columbia the soundest football trouncing the New- York team has received this year, the New-Haven players rolling up the big total of six touchdowns and winning by the ample margin of 34 to 0. It was the moat crushing defeat that the Blue has ever Inflicted on Columbia, and.

though victory was not hoped for by the local collegians, the manner In which, their team was smothered by Yale waa a painful surprise. Yale played as though determined to retrieve her defeat of one week before at the hands of West Point, and though Columbia struggled gamely and pluckily to the last, it was plain from the start that she was outmatched this season more than ever before in her annual struggle with the eleven from New-Haven. Yale scored her remarkable string of touchdowns, not by any spectacular plays or long runs, but simply by sheer weight and aggressiveness of attack. She simply Dushed Columbia down the field, not at will exactly, but with a consistent steadiness extremely discouraging to the partisans of the Blue and "White. Physical condition had quite as much to do with Columbia's overwhelming defeat as physical strength.

The Yale players appeared to be in the finest of fettle, while the men from Mornlngside Heights were constantly being hurt and obliged to give way to substitutes. Of the eleven players that faced Yale at the first shriek of the referee's whistle, only two. Metzenthir. and Thorpe, remained to the bitter end. Yale, on the contrary, seldom had a man hurt, and what substitutions were made In her line-up were made merely to give the substitutes valuable practice In a match.

YALE'S ATTACK IRRESISTIBLE. Altogether the article of football exhibited by the New-York team whs Calculated to depress their admirers. Yale's attack proved practically Irresistible and crumpled up the Columbia line with irritating regularity. Only two or times was the Yale quarterback obliged to signal for a punt to avoid losing the ball on downs. The Blue's defence was less but.

though Duell and occasionally found holes in It. Columbia could make no consistent progress against Yale's beef, and was frequently forced to fall back upon punting. There were two or three bright spots, however, In the clouds that overhung Columbia. The brightest of all centred about Metzenthin, the plucky little quarterback, who was easily the star of the match on Columbia's side. There were reports to the effect that Coach Morley intended to relegate Metzenthin to the side lines and substitute Donovan as team general.

But he didn't, and is now. without doubt, exceedingly glad of It, for Metzenthin was a tower of strength for the New-Yorkers. No sooner had Rorabaek kicked off for the first time than Metzenthin caught the hall, and, aided by a good Interference and some fast and skilful dodging of his own. ran eighty yards before a Yale back brought him to earth. Several times thereafter he made good gains on the quarterback run.

while, when it came to punting. Columbia never looked to him In vain. On the defensive ha was cool and steady at handling punts, and made good gains in running them back. Duell. too.

distinguished himself by his line plunging, and got away from the Yale tacklera for a run of thirty yards, concluding his sprint with a hurdle Jump that miKht have yielded a touchdown had not the runner fallen so heavily on his head as nearly to knock him unconscious. Fisher, at fullback, did some creditable work on offensive rushes, but of the rest of the team It is only Just to say that they were outplayed, man fop man. COLUMBIA CHEERS TEAM (iAMKLY Cheer leaders were stationed on each of the field, and Columbia's battle cries answered each other across the gridironed turf quite aa heartily and constantly as if the Blue and White were winning a xlorious victory, instead of going down in .1 somewhat Ignominious defeat. Both teams got stentorian receptions when they trotted on the field, led by Captain Btaagtand and Captain Hogan It was remarked at once that the Yale players considerably outweighed their opponents, they mipht, seeing that they have one of the heaviest rush lines that ever played the para' 1 averaging no less? than 201 despite the presence of one 170 pound man. When the referee spun (oln Columbia's captain guessed right find chose to defend the south goal.

Amid the customary breathless silence Roraback, the big Yale centre, stood the pigskin on its uncertain end at the centre of the arena, and then lifted It off on Its first flight. It fell into Metzenthin's arms. The little quarterback was off like a fl.ush. and his comrades formed a Hying interference, behind which he dodged and twisted up the neld to cleverly that he had covered eighty yards and the ball was only thirty yard? away from a touchdown when Vale's i-" rashers finally brought him down. Columbia's thousands on benches went wild with delight, us well they might.

Their Joy was shortlived, though, for the Yale Stone wall held so hard that, after two vain attempts to pierce it. Metsenthla .1 Quartered run. The Columbia failed to boM leather Yale took the offensive for the first time, bat failed to give any of the power she was later to develop, and, after two downs. Hoyl punted.

When the human puzzle disentangled itself Captain Stangland did not get up. In fact, he only got off the field when he was assisted, Sedgwick came In to take his at guard.

Columbia then began to throw herself devotedly at the Blue stone wall for a series of short that made her friends think that she had begun to strike her real gait. Fisher and Duell hit Trinp'a position for short' distances, and made Ir. Si down by a spectacular exhibltirn of hurdling. Metzenthin then came to the front with a smart little quarterback run around end that netted four yards. Hope, was shortlived, however, for the next two plunges failed, and then came the kick between the centre's something new this season, and which had not been seen in any match in this city until yesterday.

The ball rolled twenty-five yards from Metzenthin's foot, and Rockwell, of the auburn thatch, fell on it. But Yale's attack was not yet In good working order, and after the Columbia forwards had plucklly stood up two plunge? Hoyt fell b.i<-k for a punt. He got off a good one. the ball sailing through no less than fifty-five yards of before Metzenthin embraced It, The little quarter started things going with a quarterback run that was good for four yards, and Fisher struggled along far enough to rend up the welcome cry r.f "First down!" Then Thorpe tried to get through Klnney, and was hurled bark for a three yard loss. This misfortune was quickly followed by a worse, for when Metzenthtn essayed his favorite quarterback run Shevlln was upon him like a flash, tackled him from behind and downed him for a four yard loss.

METZEXTHIN OAINS ON "FAKE" KICK Then Metzenthin fell back as if for a punt, but when he got the bail, instead of kicking It. he dashed like lightning for the right end. and before Yale could call in her backs Columbia was twentyfive yards nearer Yale's goal, while a mighty roar of joy testified that the runner's skill was enthusiastically appreciated. On the next rattled off a series of numbers which meant nothing to the spectators. but which really called for the trick play known as the "crisscross" Apparently Yale had not been trained to meet this play, though It Is old and.

when skilfully executed, dangerous. At any rate, it worked like a charm. Duell was the man designated to carry the leather finally, and. with almost the whole Yale team in pursuit of the empty handed Fisher around the left end. Duell dashed merrily up the gridiron around the unprotected right.

In another Instant whole Yale eleven had discovered Its mistake, and was in full cry behind aim, but Duell had a good start and there was only Rockwell between him and a touchdown. The Yale quarterback lunged for the tackle, and Duel! hurled him. The leap was successful, so tar as getting by Rockwell was concerned, but Duell fell heavily on his head, and in an Instant six or seven Yale men fell on him. For all that, the halfback's run had yielded a net gain of thirty-five yards, and furnished the thousands of one of afternoon's sensations. METZENTHIN MUFFS A PUNT.

It was now Columbia's ball only thirty-five little yards from the coveted goal, and Columbia's hopes ran high. They were vain, however. Duell and Fisher each struggled and fought his way ahead for two yards, but the third attempt failed, anil Yale won the pigskin. Some costly holding in Yale's line set the Blue back fifteen yards, and there was nothing for It but a punt, and Hoyt booted the oval to Metzenthtn at Columbia's 45-yard mark. The little quarterback muffed the punt and then kicked It as it rolled.

Of course, this forfeited the ball to Yale, which had gained twentytwo yards by the and still had the leather. After Bloomer had hit the centre for four yards, umpire caught a Columbia man holding and penalised the New-Yorkers the prescribed fifteen yards. Hoyt ran four yards inside Post, and Tale jrot five yards for offside play, thus bringing the battle well into Columbia territory. Then Rockwell got his giants together. The quarterback ran off his plays like lightning.

The referee's whistle had scarcely sounded for a down before Rockwell was In his place and rattling off the next signal. Like a flash the attack got Into action. The huge forwards opened up hole after hole, through which the backs ploughed Irresistibly. Hoyt hurdled for sever, yards. McCoy butted through Sedtcwick for eight.
