Columbia's Fighting Spirit Beats Vermont Forward Pass Used by New Yorkers to Make Only Score By FRAJVK O'NEILL. Columbia Univeraity'ts football eleven triumphed over the University of Ver on the at South teld yeaterday afternoon. The Blue and Write scored one touchdown early in the third quarter, and while Cochran 7-niased hia attempt at the goal the mar gin waa eufficient.

The final acore waa 4 tO 0. The atudentB of football gloried in fighting epirit of Columbia. Of football tactica little learned. however, seixed or? of the few ehances to acore, and rUSSftad to the forward par.s t0 bring about the de7-ired resu't. Another the Blue and White worked the bail down to the eight-yard lme, only to have the boya from the Green Uourltains sUnd like a atone wall and uii the ball on Rlamondo Malee Score.

Rlamondo, quarterback of Columbia, scored the touchdown that won the g-ame. He a forward from Cochran, the fuilbaea, who anot the ball from the thirteen-yard line over the goal. It waa a danng play and sueeeeded quite as much becauae of ita an because of ita cnn ning With the ball on Ver roont's eight-yard line, tne fourth down and five yards to go for a first down, Rlamondo called for the pais. The de fence of the Green wbb BSt and ready, the Columbia tield general found a small opening; tinguardeii, he raced through until stood Cochran made his pas.s swit't anu true as a rifle ahot into Riamondos arms. In a moment the Vermont backa downed him, but the tackle came too late.

That score decided the and it traeed its origin to an error of the Ver? mont team juat one of the errors that added thrilhl tat the crowd. bat whieh sV ubtless made the eoaches ahudder. Columbia kicked off at the start of the Hirke of Ver? mont ran the bal! baek to the 39-yard where he waa tackled so hard by Kennedy that he fumblfld. and Cleve Und fell on the ball for Columbia. The Vermont team waa thrown into ctnfuBion by this sudden turn in ar f.irs, ar.d Columbia not long in the adrantage thua throat upon therrr.

Ha-vlar rioughed hia fllong to the 12-yarti lme before he waa stopped.

On the next play Cochran drove into thc line for a four-jard gain, and the routh itands demanded a touchdown. But Vermont barrel the way. The Columbia attack beat against a rock bhed defence. and Vermont took tne ball on downs. Columbia won, and.

of course, is always acceptable, there was a palpabie lack of pow-r ard ItBOOthnefll to team. The leflfl of Howard -1 ler quarterback is felt, and until hc returns the Columbia is moru iiable to romple and bump slatnf than to ourr and run eastly.

N'ew Haven, Oct is on her way baek. Make no mistake about that- She may not reach the heighta this season, but she has left the valley and with it the blight that began to cover her six years ago. This afternoon before nine thousand football camp Captain Black Ied his machine against the strong, aggressive Lehigh line-up, and Yale finished two laps in front by the score of 12 to 0. The two Blue touch.lowns came from successful assaulta by Le Gore and Bingham in the second an.l fourth quarters. Le Gore was the first Ya.e star to wind his rapid, devious way through Lehigh's sUunch de? fence.

For the first eighteen minutes of on into the second quarter, Brown and White defensive bulwark had more than held ita own against each Eii drive. And then, deep in Yale's territory. Harry Le Gore swept out around Lehigh's left wing. His well mass-d intcrfer ence helped to carve a way through tha first guarding lme. but after that Le Gore's great speed carr.ed him on beyond his convoys.

At midfield he waa running with four Lehigh backs Btill ln th Hard Yale Fight vtit iiii. road, but by Atraight armIng two of these and by dodging two others with a shifting, bewildering str.de, the L. rfxa-ty star travelled no lesa than sever.tv l. yards before he rinaiiy arrived safely ffifa- i ard Qalat in port with the games first score. q.

Yalo mg Interest featured tha affair. An ftrst built up her early preatige. Early Work of Blue Squad Outclasses that of Yale Teams of Former Years The crowd soon filled every spot around the battle ground. and shortly before game time, when the were closed. aeveral hundred tore down and broke through the g-tard to get in.

were massed not only around the field hut upon all house in the vicinity. in the general eagerness to see the new Blue regime against its test. The work of the Yale squad, while spotty at certain points, was far beyo-d the early October showing of for the last four years. Her de ttnet was powerful enough to hold the fast Lehigh attack to a brace of first downs, only one of which came from straight r-shing. The Yale attack also sharp and blessed with consider able power, although as yet the needed consistenry hasn't arrived.

two main weaknesses --ere in tha work ef her had ro "follow 'hrough" to their drive. and her tenoem-y to fumble all through the game. The Blue barkfield fumbled the bail on eight occasions, but t-e 'ast Ssra of fumbles were which that much of a oe'pf'il Lemgh fumbled but once, playing good. sour.d football that aimply had r.o attack, not even with Chenoweth, Brunner and with power enough to break down Yale's alert de? fenee. The Pennaylvania visitors found but one 10-yard march througn tne Blue rampart.

The attack for the first down distance came on a f.ne forward from Hurley ta Ma? the aecond quarter, the net gain of twenty-one yards taking the bail to Yale's 15-yard line. But havir.g got thus far along, another flurry of forward pa-ses were all covered and foiled by the Biue's secondary defenee that on one occamon was calied upu'. to break up the play back of the Ei: goal. While Yale acored but two touch downs, ahe loat another the liraf after advancing the bail to within five yaris of her rival's line. Here, with a score in aight, Bingham fumblid a pa's from Smi'h ar.d Lehigh promptly Kicked away from danger.

There la evidence, frorr thia nra. gam? that Coach Jones has at landed me quarterback he has been lo-ikinc for ever he took charge. Last fall young Smith a subatituto ouarter on the freshman team. Thia fali he was given his chance on tho big i ieveri. and yesterday his work wut eaa of the features of the day.

Lehigh had a strong. alert and one that played good.

Black's Team Gets Away to a Fast Jumv in First Quarter of Game Before the game atarted Coach Jones waa far from cheerful over the out look. Kingham and two or three others were bfl bad condition from reeent in? juries, and Lehigh's Btrength waa re membered from laat fall, when Yale arely won, 7 to 6, through the work of LeGore. In that 1915 game no less than men wert badly battered up.

to-day's game, while Bard, wbb cleanly played. excellent work of the two Tom Thorpe and Mike Thompson. had something to do with thia reversal from lflri. as they miescd to infiict proper teams. Yale prot away to a fast jump in the f.rst quarter, when young Smith ran the Lehigh kick-otf forty-seven before he waa tinallr dumped at raid f.eld.

Yale tried few forward and the best of these gained 18 yards on a toss from Le Gore. Charley Taft, son of Taft. played centre and did very good urrk. Bla class and hia defensive work was up to the general standard of the Yale line. While Yale made her share of mis takea, and more than her share in many ways, she at least gave tne impressior.

of a sounder sy-'em than she has known for some time. Coach Tad Jones la undoubtedly doing his work well, for, in addition to better machine play. there is also evidence of far better team spint. The work of Le Gore. Black.
