HARV ARD'S GREAT VICTORY PUSHES PENNSYLVANIA IT AND DOWN THE FIELD TO THE TUNE OF 17 TO 5. THE FAMOUS GUARDS BACK FORMATION SMASHED TO NOW LET TALE LOOK OUT FOR A FIERCE AND CLEVER FOE, 'FT TKI.EORA.rH TO IHI TKIPrXII Cambridge. Nov. Harvard gave a surprise party to Pennsylvania this and beat the much vaunted Quaker eleven by the decisive score of 17 to 5. The men from Philadelphia were perfectly confident of victory.

Their captain and coach had predicted openly they were bound to win. Yet not only did they lose, but they were fairly overwhelmed, and fact beaten -n the first twenty minutes of play- And Harvard's surprise party was not osiy for her foes, but for herself and her friends. the Crimson eieven made good strides in the last few days. Its adherents had HeT. admitting: nothing more nattering than a fighting chance" for the team.

The Crimson's stock. In consequence of this great victory, has gone up with a bound, and you cannot touch the Harvard men to-night. It was a great game to watch, abounding in brilliant and spectacular features, wonderful dodging end runt, by the Harvard backs, bulldog rushes by Pennsylvania's giants and other plays which brought the occupants of the grandstand to their feet with a shout. But to football men all the thrilling end plays and open work by Harvard were overshadowed in the one fact that the celebrated guards back formation was proved decisively, finally and beyond peradventure useless against a stsoafc aggressive defence. It would almost seem that by this time the Quakers would begin to realize this, for it was Just two years ago that Harvard first showed on this same Idlers' Field that the guard? back play was net invincible.

Pennsylvania lost that game, hut tried the same old formation again last Harvard agalr. nailed it. Nothing daunted, however, the Quakers bobbed up serenely this year with the same old gag. but with the impressive announcement that it had been refurbished so beautifully that now It could be sprung Mi Harvard and could be every time. But to-day for the third year in succession Harvard took the play, ripped it open, hammered it to '-rushed it and then buried It deep under seventeen large points.

Thta statement about the back play is worth considerable space from a foothall point of view, for no formation has ever rwn so widely heralded and discussed. The 'ruth about this Quaker formation is first this: a weak learn or against any team that allows the play to reach the line while still la motion the formation Is Invincible, but if the play can be nailed before It reaches the line It be knocked into a cocked hat. That is exactly what Harvard did. Her rushers broke through and killed the interference before it had gained and in that fact lies largely story of the whole game. The Quakers had practically only this one method of attack, and when this play failed "her en gone; and.

has been stated several this season in these columns, the defensive work of the plainly been neglected. for they were slow in breaking through, easily eluded by good dodgers, and iarksed somewhere high up in the air. Their hack field, too. was erratic beyond measure, and handled posts in iSistreeeine fashion. When the ball came sailing down the field, booted by Crimson back, the quarter men would wait for it with open arms, then muff it.

Those tiro men, with the occasional assistance of or three others, played the whole game for the Red ar.d Blue. Hare is certainly about the individual player that ever wore a aaras jacket. He was omnipresent and almost omnipotent. i' was Hare that did the line bucking, the end running and the kicking for Pennsylvania.

It comes to individual work by the Harvard team Captain Daly is in a class by generalship perfect and his own play superb.

The game was started pretty and this Is way it nt 'eensyivania kicked off and Harvard brought the ball back forty I yards by rushing.

The Quakers tried their guards' back play repeatedly and failed, and an exchange of punts and a fumble gave Harvard the leather In the enemy's territory. Steady rushing and two end by Sawln brought the first touchdown and goal In twelve minutes. Again Harvard worked the play well into Pennsylvania's bailiwick, but lost the ball on a fumble. Then Hare's kick was beautifully blocked and Harvard had another touchdown and goal. The Quakers kept the hall after this for a time, but did some terrific butterflnger work, and Harvard soon had possesi sion of it again.

The Crimson machine grot in motion again and another touchdown was the fruit of it all. In the second half, with the score 17 to 0 against them, the Quakers made a plucky and a wonderful brace. They played fast, fierce football, and got a touchdown before Harvard knew it. Then the Crimson men rot 1 together again, and toward the close of the struggle kept the leather well In Quaker territory, almost scoring again. Harvard, as well as Pennsylvania, put In fresh men constantly in the second half, replacing all three hacks and both end rushers.

The weather here was perfect for football except that the ground was a trifle moist and slippery under toot. The skies had been lower- Ing all day. but the rain held off, and what little wind there was blew across the gridiron. Soldiers' Field If an Ideal battleground for a great football struggle, situated as It is out In the open meadows, with the college and the city a half a mile away in the haze, and the sluggish Charles toning up the picture with brilliant gleams of water here and there. The grandstands filled up early.

Pennsylvania had a big block on the north end, and had brought along a large crowd of shouters, a multitude of Philadelphia youths and maidens decked in gay array, and also a brass band that felt like going out of business before the game was half over. Coach Woodruff was there, on the Quaker side, nervously pacing to and fro, while in front of the Harvard section a body of lusty Crimson undergraduates led uproarious cheers at frequent intervals. His Honor the Governor of the Commonwealth was a privileged character on the Harvard side, though, of course, hi? office as Governor was insignificant compared to that of those oldtime heroes of the gridiron who were back.

The cheers died away the elevens took their places, and Hare booted the leather for Pennsyli vania to Harvard's three-yard line. Sawin took it and ran back fifteen yards. On the first lineup Harvard pot her distance around right end. Then Ellis bucked the centre and Sawln set things a-shootlng by a dash for fifteen yards through a hole that Lawrence made for him. I Harvard team worked the ball back to midj field by these rushes, hut here they ran up against trouble, and the Quaker? took the ball on downs.

Then on the Harvard grandstands hands grew cold and clammy and hearts stood still, for the cuitain was about to roll up on that terrifying spectacle, the guards' back formation. Hare carried the ball sure enough, the heavy wedge crashed through for ten yards, and shivers be- Pft the Harvard shouters; but. to and behold, on the second and third trie? the play could not do a thing, and Harvard began to breathe again. Hare finally punted and afterward promptly kicked back. The Quakers started their favorite play in motion, but the ball was too slippery for I them.

A Harvard rusher was there to drop on ii. and smiles overspread the Cambridge contingent, A couple of fair rushes advanced the bail, but Pennsylvania was holding pretty stiffly, and Daly punted with good Judgment out of bounds. Captain Hare signalled for the heavy guards to get in their fine work, and carry the ball I eighty odd yards for a touchdown, but Har- i yard ends broke up the formation like a shot and Hare had to punt again. Thie was Har- vard'a chance. A trick play gained a yard, and Ellis made a mighty hurdle over Hart- and got the rest of five yards.

Little Sawin got started like a flash, and twenty yards around right end was his contribution to the good thing? coming Harvard's way. Ellis and Kendall both did some excellent line bucking, and brought the ball to Pennsylvania's 23-yard line. The I i Quakers began to look a little anxious, but still had no idm of what the near future held, for suddenly out of the bunch Sawin dashed again through the right -end, taking splendid advan- i tag" of his interference.

Some more steady rushing by Harvard took play well into Phlladelphians' demesne, but a Harvard man held on the line, and to the Quakers the umpire swarded the ball. This seemed to be a chance for the visitors to try some new hut the guards ck was about all they knew. They tried it but there was nothing doing, and I Hare dropped back for a punt. Harvard's right I tackle, yellow haired Jim Lawrence, had his I eye on the Quaker captain, who kicked a little too low.

Harvard's rushes were a little off colored, so Daly booted the leather. The guards back slipped up again and Hare was forced to kick.

Quakers punted to Harvard, who started In to rush, but the first fumble that Harvard had made gave the ball to Pennsylvania on the Crimson iweuty-nve-jaia line.

That was NEW YORK DAILY TRIBUNE. SUNDAY. NOVEMBER 4, 1900. Quakers' chance, and they proceeded to tear things up. They grot their guard? back In working order at last and bucked the centre Hke a battering ram.

They had reached Harvard's 17-yard line, when Umpire Dashiel detected holding by a Crimson rusher, and promptly penalized Harvard ten yards. the ball to Pennsylvania on the enemy's eeven-yard line, and Harvard didn't feel quite so warm. The Pennsylvania eleven all gathered in a bunch, and It was plain to everybody, including the Harvard eleven, that they were going to try to force the centre for the touchdown, but Hare had a trick up his sleeve. There was a mighty push for the centre, but while the Crimson rushers were shoving It back Hare was speeding around Hallowell's end for a clean and pretty touchdown. It was Pennsylvania's turn to go wild, and the Red and Blue bleachers proceeded to do it.

but Hare failed in the goal. Score Harvard. 17; Pennsylvania, Harvard kicked off and the big MacCracken dashed back thirty yards despite all the protests that the Harvard tacklers could furnish. It was a great run and revived Pennsylvania's spirits with a rush. The Quakers made several effective plunges, but finally punted.

Harvard worked the play hack to mldfleld. and then Daly dropped back for a punt, but the ball waa passed far over his head, and groans went up from the Harvard bleachers. Daly, however. was quite cool. He turned for the leather and I took so much time to prepare his punt that the kick was blocked.

Mighty luckily for Harvard the little quarterback nabbed the ball him- I self, else another Quaker touchdown would have been imminent. But the Crimson rushes seemed to be growing feeble, and again Daly dropped back for a punt. This time he muffed the pass squarely, and a shout of joy went up from the Red and Blue side, but Daly was equal to the emergency. Picking up the ball he dodged a couple of Pennsylvania rushers, and somehow i booted the leather back to middle field. It was i a wonderful and seemingly impossible perform! ance; more than that a Pennsylvania back aci commodatingly muffed the ball and Harvard secured it.

But the Quakers braced and broke through Harvard's line easily, so Stillman punted to the Red and Blue 35-yard line. lOn the first down the indomitable Hare took the hall and made a magnificent dash for i twenty-five yards around Harvard's right end. The Quakers, bodied in Hare, were doing 1 great work, and Harvard didn't look quite so i jaunty. Three times in succession the Perm- I sylvania formation crashed through Harvard's line for good distances, and the Philadelphia delegation begged and implored their players for another touchdown, but Harvard got in some fresh substitutes and finally held the I Quakers for four downs in middle field An change of kicks here was just what Daly had I been waiting for. for he ran back the leather i with a superb hair raising spurt of thirty yards, and how the Harvard cheers rang out: The Cambridge men were beginning to wake up once more, and by some first class interference they rushed the ball to the foe's 25-yard line, Glerasch.

doing some brilliant work 1 Harvard's holding in the line again gave the ball to Pennsylvania, and Hare proceeded to I boot it far down th- field. To the surprise of 1 everybody Daly fumbled the dancing pig-skin, and when he finally got his hands on it there were two or three Quaker rushers right over him, but the elusive quarterback, by some magician's work, slipped out from them all and started down the field like the wind. The whole crowd rubbed its eyes in amazement: it thought Daly tvap buried beneath a pile of Blue and Red rushers, but he wasn't. He was rushing down the field at a forty-mile clip, and the Quaker were doing nothing poking their fingers at him and making feeble stab? at reaching him. Forty-five yards was the distance that this wonder worker named Daly covered, and that broke the Quakers' hearts there and then.

From that time forward Harvard had the play constantly well up under Pennsylvania's goal. Once Daly tried for a field goal, but missed it. Harvard quickly Rot the leather again, however, and -when time was called the victorious Crimfon cohorts had it only sis yards from the Quaker and there permed plenty of ginger In the Cambridge men at that.

That Yale could gain little advantage by old fashioned football was apparent from the start.

Kreauently the ball went on downs to the soldiers. Every trick that tried was bulked. Casad made a twenty yard run around Bc-nham, and rive yard gains were frequently rrade through Eli's heavy centre. Holt kicked off. Phillips made a.

pretty catch and regained some ground. Phillips went through centre just to see. If he could, and punted on the next play. West Point kept the ball on account of Benham'x offside play, and the cadets began shouting for a touchdown. The cadets did not serm to wear themselves out hammering Yale's line, however, and Phillips punted again.

Hyde returned the kick, but Phillips fumbled, and Chadwick secured the leather. West Point lost ten yards for holding. Yale pushed to West Points fifteen yard line, when the ball went on to Lhe soldiers. Casad then got through Benham for fifteen and General Merrttt, who sat at the Bide lines, waved his hat and clapped his hands.

Princeton. N. Nov. 3 Princeton students can no longer boast that Princeton has never been beaten in football on her own gridiron, for the Cornell eleven bearded the Tiger in his lair most successfully this afternoon. Not to win from Cornell was a possibility to Princeton rooters, but not to score against her was inconceivable to their wildest flights of Imagination.

The Tigers were outclassed from beginning to end. in offence and defence, and In all styles of play. University Field had a liberal coating of mull underneath the sod. for It had rained all day, and throughout the game a dreary drizzle chilled the spectators to the bone. The small audience who had lared the elements looked lonely and forsaken on vast area of the new stands built to accommodate the Yale game crowd.

The cheering of the rooters for both teams made up Its Quantitative lack in quality, and was incessant from beginning to end. Even after it CORNELL TEAM LINING VP was all over the Princeton boys cheered each player of the eleven individually, just to show that their spirit was unbroken. The undergraduates are wondering what the Columbia eleven will do to the Tigers, and they do not like to think about the Yale game, only two weeks distant. Captain Pell won the toss and gave Cornell the ball. Duncan was downed after running the kickoff fifteen yards, and Mattis was forced to punt.

Starbuck punted, as Princeton's defence held, and Taussisr secured the ball on Princeton's 25-yard line by reason of Duncan's fumble. Then the play that brought the Princeton rooters to their feet as one man. Starbuck took the ball from Purcell on a double pass and got by Roper with only little Duncan between him and a touchdown. Duncan dived for him. but fell short, and the Cornell captain carried the ball behind the posts, after a twenty-five yard run.

He also kicked the goal. Cornell. Princeton. 0 Princeton rooters comforted themselves with the thought that they would laugh last, but lost their hopes when, after a few erratic preliminaries by both teams, Cornell settled down and charged the ball from mirtfielcl to the Tigers' 15-yard line, where the saint- double pass trick followed the horn-team again twice.

The bulletin of Harvard's success in the first half against Princeton's old enemy, Pennsylvania, posted during the intermission, was small solaoe to the drooping Tiger rooters. Captain Pell substituted Meier for Duncan at the beginning of the second half, and soon after Umpire Brooke forced Little to retire for slugging.

With the goal In they lost the baH once for play and again by a fumble. Matt Is attempted a Held from the 35-yard line, but his kick feM about ten yards short. Starbuck'? fine leg work resorted to to get the ball out of dangerous territory, and Cornell got it In midtield.

Starbuck punted again. Mattis fumblsd the kick and Meier beat Tausslg to the ball, falling fin it on hi- 5-yard line. Interference with Flnueane's free catch of Mattls'S punt gave th- visitors a place kick from the 35-yard line, Starbuch made a poor attempt, as the ball was wet and the field slippery, and the rme was called with the ball in Princeton's care on her 35-yard line.
