The Tlffers Do Not Make Much of nn Impression by Their Work. Xnu York, October 20. The first game of the season in this city between two college foot-ball teams was played to-day on Manhattan Field, and to tbe great surprise of Princeton, Cornell made a touch-down, while Princeton could get but two touch-downs from which goals were kicked, leaving the score 12 to 4 In favor of Princeton. Before the was begun the Cornell men were trying to get odds that Princeton would not score more than 24 points to 0, and when Cornell got Us touch-down the wearers of the red and white nearly themselves hoarse. The game showed very clearly that Cornell is the gainer bv the new rules, as they do bet- ter In an open game than the heavy men from Princeton.

It showed, moreover, that Princeton is behind her playing of last year. The fumbling of the Princeton team was more noticeable limn that of Cornell and several times they lost a( a critical paint, Cornell kicked off, sending the ball to Princeton's goat line. Princeton returned thvballto the twenty-yard line, when Burt kicked thirty yards. Cornell then got the halt and Sturbuck ran around the left end passing to Ohl, who tried for a goal from the fluid and missed. Burt kicked oft for Princeton Irom the twenty-five yard line, Ohl returning the kick.

Harnett got the ball and rushed for Cornell's goal line, but was downed. Prlncelon forced the ball back to Cornell's twemy-tive yard line. After a succession of scrimmages Cornell got the ball, hen Ohl kicked thirty yards-, Burt catching the ball in the centre or the Held. Wheeler then made a splendid rush, but was downed and Cornell got the ball, Ohl again punting to Burt Harnett then carried the ball twenty yards across the held and alter a fumble with MeCormlck he made three yards, when Cornell got he ball through holding on the line. Wyckoft and Ohl, by good tackling, got the ball on their i wenlytivc-yard line, when Ohl kicked.

South Bethlehem, October20. Having been asked for a comparison of tbe work done against liehlgh by Vale, Princeton and Pennsylvania, I shall give as Impartial a criticism as I can. It Is exceedingly hard to compare two teams by the work done against some other team which both have played, as one team, for various reasons, may play much better and harder against one than an other. The rounds on which the contest takes place may also have much to do with the playing, as fool-ball elevens, like all other combinations, generally play better on grounds where they are well known. Besides, to a small college like Lehigh, where material Is scarce.

It is very hard to put In elevens of equal strength, especially where games come close together. Lehigh played Princeton first on Saturday, October 6. Although early in the Benson tbe team representing Iehlgh was probably in much belter shape to meet a strong team than In either -f the games with Yale or Pennsylvania. We bad no men laid up at that time and every one of our men was in the plufc of condition and ready for the fray. Besides, Lehigh bad held Princeton down last year to twelve points, so we felt able to repeat the performance.

Often a small team is rattled when it meets a large leani that It is badly beuten before It goes in. Princeton ou tbe other hand used only the simplest of plays, as It did not like to try an intricate system of piuy so early in the sea-s'ni. In Mils enme Princeton showed up strong on the defensive with the exception of one or two poor attempts at tackling by their ends. Verv few gains were made by Lehigh, although Us representatives easily played the strongest aggressive game that they have shown this year. Fitzgerald also kicked bei- ter than he did In either the ale or Pennsyl vania games, thus tending to keep the score down.

Princeton also seldom failed to make the required distauce and Ward and MeCormlck went into the line In better form and stronger than the backs of either Vale or Pennsylvania; they also got in a few very good end runs, but. Princeton's interference used their hands loo freely. Burt, the fullback, kicked one very long punt, but Butter-worth and Brook1 probably did better work taking the whole duy's work into consideration. The worst fault of Princeton ou this dav was that there was too much fumbling and Trenrhurd failed to pass straight several times. Princeton's backs did not handle kicks ns they should and this showed lack or practice In playing together.

The halves In this game were minutes, while each halt was 20 minutes In the Yale game, and M) minute halves were played in the Pennsylvania game. Thus the score 8 to 0 does not indicate the strength of Princeton's tame. In short halves a team made up or smaller men is much more apt to hold the score down, as biff men cannot wear tbem out in such a short space of time. In the Vale game on the lKth it was raining so hard that neitnerteam was able to show no to the best advantage. Lehigh suffered more than Vale, ai.

their backs could not hold he wet ball. Several times tney were making ground against Vale, when they lost the ball by dropping it. Vale's defense was not as strong as their team showed two years ago. Vale, wlih the ball, however, showed more snap. I think, than either Pennsylvania or Princeton, making always two or ihree yards.

Tlietr backsdid not secure long runs, however, like those made by tsgood and Gel-bert, nor did they get through the Hue as cleanly as Ward or Mt-Cormtck. But the dash was there, even If the knack of making holes was not visible. Vale backs and quarter handled the hall tlnelv, much better, in fact, than 1 either Princeton or Pennsylvania, of course, the fact should not he lost sight of that ale had an extra week's practice on Princeton. The big men In Vale's line seemed to be more active in breaking through than those In the Pennsylvania and Princeton lines. Lehigh had not recovered from the Princeton and Swarthmore games, so its men were not as snappy as In the Princeton game, 'faking it nil in all, I don't think Vale defense was us strong as it should Ik; ut this season of the year, us the hacks did not aid the llneenough.

Vale's line Is very strong und it is improving every day. In the Pennsylvania game Lehigh was in even worse condition for meeting a strong team, as the preceding games were too much of astraln on them. Pennsylvania showed up stronger than expected and the way they got men around the ends was wonderful. Their barks are much better adapted for this Myle of play than going through the line, if they can raise havoc with Princeton's ends Hie way they did with Lehigh's men holding down that position it will be a sorry day lor the Orange nnd Black. Wharton showed up as the best grounti-gainlng guard of the year.

Taking either Princeton's or Vale's line as a whole, however, It Is stronger than Pennsylvania's, Lehleh's line stopped Pennsylvania's buck tug better than they did the line breaking of either Vale or Princeton. In Brooke Pennsylvania has a lull-buck hard to heat. He bundles the hall well nnd kicks quickly and fast. Knipe is interfering better than the other quarters, but does not handle the ball cleanly enough. Taking it all in all, I think Princeton hits now the het all-around team, with Vale the closest kind of a second.

I have no doubt that Princeton will beat Pennsylvania by ten points when they meet on November 10 if the patne takes place outside of Philadelphia. Pennsylvania's stars are too much of individual players to develop the strongest team play. W. llKFFKI.I-'INUKH. First Game at Berwick.

The Indians secured tne ball soon after the klck-od' and proceeded, without losing the bal. to rush it over for a touch-down, using a close revoking wedge.

They used this formation throughout the game, and. unless there was a hitch, it seemed almost impossible to stop them without guiu. The way they got in and helped each other would be a lesson to any foot-ball team. Tuey shoved and pulled each other forward at times when you thought they were stronger on defensive play. It would have been a bad day ror heelers of the brown and white.

Their full-back, Jonas Metoxen, was a big, strapping fellow, who knew lust bow to use bis strength and weight in bucking a Hue. He invurlablv gained lor them when be tried the line, i.ehlgb had no trouble In advancing the ball whenever they secured it, as they could easily run around the ends. Both Harrison and Joe Thurston succeeded in making several very fine runs of over twenty yards. Captain Trafton also gained good ground, charging centre many limes for gains of five or ten yards. The Indians secured the first touch-down, Captain Cnsawell making It.

Lchigli then got the hall and by means of criss-cross Oast ran thirty yards and made the first toncb-down for bis side, but Barnard failed to kick a goal. Lehigh then again secured the ball on the kick oft, and by short rushes carried li over again, Barnard again ni Using goal. After hard work and just before time was called Trafton makes anothertouch-down, Recerra fulling at goal. In the second half Hnrrison made a touchdown after a flneVynrd run.okeson kicking goal. Thurston then soon after shows what he can do, and by means of clever use of the hand he secured another touch-down, Okeson falling at goal.

noflblflnffor Thinks His Men Have Had Too Much Work. Sjecial Correspondence of The Timks. Soctii Bethlehem, October 20. During the past two weeks Lehigh has met three of the strongest teams In the country, and Its showing has been very creditable, considering the shortness of time between the games. Lehigh showed up stronger Id the Princeton game, which took pluce on October ti, than In any game whiah it has played this Reason.

This game was followed 00 the 10th with a game with Swarthmore, and, although Lehigh easily won by a score of 84 to 0, nevertheless they had to play hard from start to finish. The day following they played a hard game with the college side, which they lost by a score of 6 to 5. To he sure, the college side was strengthened by Ordway, the fast, tricky half-back of last year's team, and MeCtung. the best quarter Lehigh ever had, and probably the headiest foot-ball player who ever put on a brown and white sweater, Mac. arrived on the loth, and he at once took charge of the halves and quarter.

After November 3 he will take entire charge of the team, as present couch, W. W. Heftelfinger, will go to Anna, pohs on that day for a week and then to New Haven for the rest of the season. Fearing that tbe men would have too much work, everyone was laid off on Friday, the day before the Vale game, especially as It Is a long trip to New Haven, and Judging from their work on Saturday, In the Vale game, I am afraid too much work was given them week before Inst, or that the trip the night before by boat wore them out. In this game several of the players seemed laggy, and as the men behind the line are naturally slow, it was fatal to good pluyfng.

The game was played In a pouring rain, which also worked against Lehigh, as it was their first experience with a wet ball. Several very bad fumbles were made, which resulted indirectly fti at least two touch-downs. I think Lehigh will practice in the first rainy weather, so they can learn to hold a wet ball. Theonly reason tney have not been asked to play before was that ankles are apt to be turned, and it Is a serious thing to lay up a good man lu a college the size of Lehigh, where you are always pressed for good substitute material. But for tlie benefit received It is probably better to play once in a while on wet days and trust to luck that no strains result.

Last Monday the team was only played one short, half of llitoen minutes, and the remuinder of the afternoon was taken up in practicing signals, running team through flays and teaching them a few new tricks. Inif-backs were also trained in catching bull on the run, which is at present one of their weak points, as thev hesitate badly before starting forward. Fltgerald, tbe full, went throughtbe usual work of punting and trying drop kicks. Fit 7. and Barnard also tried some place kicking.

Tuesday no work was attempted, ns the strong Pennsylvania team was to be played on Wednesday. This game was a disappoint ment to many ot Lehigh sympathizers, as they expected to keep the score down many points below thirty. In fact, twenty points was put as the highest Pennsylvania would Bcore. Lehigh showed many times In this game that too much work had been attempted in the past two weeks. me of the most serious faults, however, was that Thurston, the quarter, nnd Fitzgernld, the full, were new to each other, and therefore several times they did not work together on passes for kicks.

This was Thurston's first I'niversity game, and. In fuel, be has never played quarter more than five times this year in practice. Zaltman, the regular quarter, was laid up lr. the Vale game and Thurston had to be put in just at the last moment. He, however, showed up well and his tackling and catching were particularly good.

Several times when he was last man on the defense he succeeded in downing the crack Osgood, and two of his backward running catches were dandles, showing a very good head. Lehigh is very weak on aggressive play, but Ithelr defensive work is good. On Wednesday, however, the ends, tackles and halves did not work properly together or many of Osgood's and Gel-bert's runs would have been stopped. Thursday the team were given about fifteen minutes' hard play und the rest of tfe day was nut in practicing plays. Holdeness was tried'ut quarter and he showed up exceedingly well.

He is strong, steady and showed good Judgment in the running of the team. The passing Is not accurate but he gets the i ball away quickly and practice will soon cure the first mentioned fault. Yates, who showed up so strongly In the second half of Penn, was put In as end and if he continues to improvewill undoubtedly take Beat's place ou the left side of the line. On Friday the men were laid off, in order to rest them up for Carlisle Indian School game, which will take place Ihls will give our boys a good chance to show if Weduesday game taught tnem a lesson, as the Indians are speedy and will without doubt reiy on their end plavs. Lehigh's worse faults at present are that Is not fust enough and that bucks do not start quick enough.

They are also weak in helping each other, depending too much on the player with the ball to make distance and letting certain appointed men to do all tackling. As soon as they work together their team will be much stronger, especially on the aggressive. The above points will beworked-on the coming week. W. W.
