CAPTAIN FISHER OF COLUMBIA. YALE HOLDING COLUMBIA SOON AFTER THE OPENING OF THE SECOND HALF. CAPTAIN SHEVLIN OF YALE, (Photograph by the Company.) YALE HUMBLES COLUMBIA. I ALMOST AT WILL. After Touchdown Made with Unvarying Monotony.

Yale nrrfiiseA her moat enthusiastic partisans by rolling up the phenomenal (for teyar) of 63 to 0 against the Columbia fmletwtax whteh had the misfortune to ho opposed the Karmr-Htnn aggregation. Probably ten thousand spectators went up to American ff Psrh to Bee the game, and If they ex fraBfsg hard fought cor.teat many did. they vastly disapipointed, for the truth is that (H WBM net contest In acy true sense of the Prebabty eleven was ever more Completely than the one which faced yesterday.

It was seldom that the Morningside athletes bad a chance to attack the Tale defence, to be Bmrw Nineteen out of every twenty minutes Shey were being torn up and rolled over and poshed a6lde, while the Yale rushers and backs carried the pigskin across their goal for a total no leas than nine that was the number, from which Yeeder, Hutchlnson and Wiley kicked eight goals.

COLUMBIA WEAK IX OFFENCE. The disparity between the two teams appears fell the more plainly when It is said that in all the afternoon's play Columbia's players were abl? to advance the ball by rushing something less than ten yards. Collins made a run of some thirty yards, to be sure, but that was when he caught a punt. Whenever Columbia got pos? session of the bail it was a case of two futile efforts to advance and then a punt on the third down. Tale, on the other hand, seldom failed to rain her distance and did little punting, ex? cept toward the end of the second half, when It became almost a matter of indifference to her whether she scored any more or not.

is ciffi? uli to explain the almost complete collapse of the Columbia eleven except on the theory thru they have been harried by over mii'-h ill luck and worn out by overmuch drill. They playo lil'i I fiy as if they had. every man of them, gone stale. There was a notable ab? sence of life, snap and the fighting quality that wins games. once did there come just a spark of divine athletic fire." That solitary flash was seen in the first half, after Yale had scored or.ee and had fought her way sttadlly down the field to Columbia's two yard line.

Here Veeder let ball slip from his grasp. Flinn saving it for the Blue. But the momentary check seemed to give the Columbia forwards courage, and on next brush they got their backs up and held like a stonewall, with tiie result that Bigelow was hurled back for a loss, and the triumphant Blue wave was shattered onlv a vard from a touchdown. COLUMBIA ONE CHANCE TO CHEER? This feat or arms stirred the Columbia rooters up to heights of frenzied enthusiasm, but it was about their onlv chance, for the effort seemed to have taken all the fight ihat Morleys pupils had Columbia's rush line is considerably heavier than Yale's this season, contrary to last year, so the ease with winch Yale waded her way serenely down The Add cannot be attributed to her IMUllllIfl In The fact Is, that Yale Mmmfe? first football. Possibly it would be not to analyze the play of Columbia too The I earn was obviously at the lowest bb of tta strength and far in? ferior te Um eleven that Princeton beat the week before by th? score of 12 0.

After the Brat few niantes of play it was plain that there was going to be some scoring of BVMMM proportions, and at the end of the match Yale had piled up a total which has not been reached this season by any of the big four, Ax the same the Blue kept its own goal inviolate. Columbia never getting near enough to be dangerous. The first touchdown came within five minutes after play had started. nd they kept coming along at the rate of one every five minutes or so the rest of the after? noon. While Columbia was In poor physical condition end seve-a: of bar players had to be retired from the game on this account, it was clear that the Yale warriors were in the best of spirits end condition, for they played with the snap and vim characterize the movements of athletes trained fine enough, but not too fine.

It was an interested crowd that saw the game. despite the onesldedr.ees of the affair. Both the main stands were nearly filled, and there was a large population on "Rubber Neck Hill." just outride the fence, while a number of apple trees Just beyond were heavily laden with human fruit. Possibly the comparatively open charac? ter of the was a factor in the public Inter? At any rate there were fewer mass plays than Yale last year, more running and straight plur.cing by the backs, with the result that the manoeuvres on the field were decidedly more than they were In im-st gamas of last season and in some of the present y.ar's. There was not Ihr usual volume of cheering.

The Columbia contingent, though numerous and loyal, wu not quite equal to the task of heer ing madljr for a team that gave them so little to for, while the Yale adherents soon "grew se aecustomed to success to be rather bored by it. consequence was that it was rather a quiet afternoon, for one on which Inter eelleglat? contest euch magnitude was being cr BROWN BEATS SYRACUSE.

an enthusiastic crowd of over three thousand five hundred persons Brown to-day surprised Its admirers by running up a score of 27 to 0 against the strong Syracuse team at Andrew-'s Field here.

They came. In a shower, and that was why the crowd laughed. Yale appeared first. Captain Shevlin leading, and a ghost of a cheer greeted the New-Haven players, to be about tripled when Captain Fisher led his men into view. Only two of them.

Col? lins and the captain himself, distinguished them? selves in the course of the afternoon, though I there is no doubt that all did their November 4 best. Collins's thirty-yard run from a caught punt, dodging both Shevlin and Cates, was Co? lumbia's most brilliant exploit of the day. DETAIL OF TIIE PLAY. FIRST HALF.

There were enough surprises on the grid yesterday to make food for conversation and reflection for days to come. The defeat of Princeton, the downfall of Cornell, the In? ability of Pennsylvania to earn snore than a tie with Lafayette, the phenomenal incapacity of Columbia to keep Yale from scoring when and how she pleased and Harvard's weak defence against the Indians were quite enough to set the football world agog.

Princeton was outplayed by Dartmouth Cornell found a tartar in Swarthmore; Pennsylvania held Lafayette too cheaply Harvard was strong enough offensively to offset her pitifully weak defence against Carlisle; Yale fairly smothered Columbia under an avalanche of touchdowns.

crushing offence enabled Harvard to make four touchdowns against the Carlisle Indians on Soldiers Field to-day, but the Crimson defence could not keep back the warrior opponents from scoring- twice. The final score was 23 to 11. Harvard scored twice in each half, the first touchdown coming In the first five minutes of play. The Indians also made a touchdown in each half, the last one principally on a brilliant 55-yard run by M. Pleasant in the gathering darkness.

The game was interesting, especially when the Indians had the ball, for they showed up a num? ber of footboU tricks. On the other hand. Har? vard kept her fine plays well hidden, depending entirely on driving a three-man tandem into the line, usually with Brill, the bull-like tackle, at the head. There wad little kicking, the Indians having the best of it. Penalties were frequent, the Ind? ians being usually the sufferers, while Carlisle made five fumbles to one for Harvard.

From the Indian kick-off Starr ran the hall back sixty yards to the 50-yard line, the longest run in the game. The tandem was immediately formed and aimed at the Carlisle right side. In thirteen downs Harvard pushed Paul over the line for the first score. Burr kicked the goal and the Harvard side of the field settled itself down for an easy game. But the Harvard defence proved surpris? ingly weak.

On the Crimson kick-off queete ran the ball back for twenty-eight yards to the Harvard 40-yard line and then the Ind? ians began to tear the Crimson line to pieces. Carlisle drove the Harvard piayers steadily back, and In thirteen scrimmages Dubois crossed the goal line. The punt out was poor and no goal waa attempted. There was a splendid fight for the next five minutes, but at last Harvard captured the ball on Carlisle-'s line and did not lose It until the goal line was crossed. Hurley having the honor.

Burr kicked the goal. Harvard had no difficulty In making the distance in fourteen downs. In the intermission a delegation of dusky voung women from Carlisle waved red and gold flags and sang "Tammany" to the delight of the crowd. It was weli along toward sunset when the sec? ond hal" was started. The Indians seemed a trifle weaker than in the first half, and Harvard covered the forty yards to the goal line in four? teen downs.

Guild made the score. The kick off was missed. Again Harvard got the ball in the centrefield and once more the tandem offence the Indians down for two and three yards until the goal line was crossed. This time Leonard had the honor, and White kicked the goal. Then came the Indians for the second Carlisle score.

Little Mount Pleasant caught a Harvard punt on his 45-yard line and ran like a deer to Harvard's 10-yard line. In four downs Sheldon was pushed over for the last score of the game. Mount Pleasant kicked the goal. Harvard (23). Position.

to tic. Pennsylvania suffered the further humiliation of having one player ruled off by the umpire for rough playing. was Stevenson, the clever quarterback, who in stopping Dietrich, Lafay? ette's quarterback, was, according to Umpire Sharpe, overly rough, and because Dietrich was laid out Stevenson had to go. This loss seemed to have its effect on the Quakers, for Johnston, who took Stevenson's place, was unable to get the dash into the team, and the Quakers did not play nearly as aggres? sive a game as they are capable of. layette, however, was In action all the time.

They dug their toes deep Into the sod, and in every play put their whole heart into it and gave an excellent account of themselves. Pennsylvania was also unfortunate in fum? bling and losing opportunities to score. Twice they got the ball on Lafayette's line, and a touchdown looked certain. Once Steven? son fumbled, and again Rook lost the La? fayette in each Instance kicking beyond centre. Pennsylvania started its 42-yard just after the Eastonians had scored their touch? down, and by her brilliant work carried the ball to Lafayette's 2-yard line.

H-ere the up-State men showed the strength they had by holding Pennsylvania and getting the ball on downs. Lafayette's touchdown came about ten min? utes after the start of the game. The ball was on Pennsylvania's 40-yard line, when McAvoy went through a big hole In the 'eft side of Pennsylvania's line, and because Stevenson failed to stop him he had a clear field and planted the ball between the posts. He also kicked the goal. Pennsylvania's touchdown resulted from a blocked kick.

Pennsylvania fumbleci the ball on Lafayette's line the up-Staters failing to gain, Dietrich went back to punt. He stood behind the goal line. Levine got through, blocked the punt, and Torrey fell on it for a touchdown. Sheble kicked the goal, tleing the score. A little later the first half ended.

N. Nov. met defeat to-day at the hands of the heavy Swarthmore team by a score of 14 to 0. Although a hard game was looked forward to. the victory of the Pennsylvanians was unexpected.

Cornell received the kick-off and started with a tush, making a halfback kick to Swarthmore on the 30-yard line, then obtaining the hall for holding. Here a score looked certain for Cornell from the way the backs tore through the Swarthmore line, when the first of a series of disastrous fumbles occurred, losing the pigskin for the Ithacans. Then the Red and White held for downs the first time. Crowell punting. Rice made a sensational run of twenty-five yards to midfield.

On the second play fumbled This seemed to throw Cornell out, and here Swarthmore began to tear through for three and five yard gains. Mass plays by Maxwell, McDonough and Pike carried the leather steadily to Cornell's 34 yard line. On a clever trick play Crowell ran around Schildmiller for touchdown, and also kicked the goal. The rest ot the half found the ball constantly in Cornell's territory. Crowell mak? ing a poor attempt at a field goal from the 50-yard line.

Minnesota, though weakened by the absence of Saft'ord. the regular centre, who broke his hand during a scrimmage on Thursday, outweighed the Wisconsin forwards, but the advantage in weight did not count, and Wisconsin played the Minnesota linesmen off their feet during the second half, car? rying the ball once from their own 15-yard line to Minnesota's 20-yard Une on straight, hard football before losing the pigskin on downs.
