The Iowa boys were unable to

much headway on the aggressive
I
tlnipq they braced nobly on the defensive
against the attacks of the Omahans. In
spite of the fact the bull waa water
aoaked, punting played a largo part In
the game and Omaha excelled "n this de
partment, and a series of exchanges al
ways resulted In Omaha's favor. This
made it comparatively easy for Omaha
to keep the ball in Harlan territory.-
A small crowd of enthusiasts followed
the teams up and down the field in the
rain, but the grandstand was. deserted.
Omaha got the first touchdown within
three ' minutes of time, play- started.
Harlan tried to get the ball away from
Its own goal by punting, but Omaha got
it and rushed It down almost to the line.
A few line bucks and Gardener was sent
over for the first score, but failed to kick

an attempted punt and secured the ball,
running across the Harlan goal. The

ally of Pennsylvania and the Carlisle In
dians played each other to a standstill tiila
afternoon, the final aroro being 6 to 6. The
biggest crowd that ever saw the nnnual
game between thcte teams was present,
IS.OUO in all. Pennsylvania scored the first
touchdown before the gam was ten minutes
otd. The Indians reversed this in the second
half, .when they scored as quickly. Penn
sylvania had the bettor of tho argument In
the first half, while the Indians had things
much their own way in the second period.
Th much-dreaded Thorpe tiled three
goals from placement, but all failed. Penn
sylvania also tried for one field goal, but
Marks missed It by only a few feet.- The
wet ball, due to the rain, which fell all
Horning and during most of the second
half, had much to do with the poor kicking
and the fumbling..
New foot bull waa conspicuous by its
absence, the game being In direct contrast
with most of the contests between Penn
sylvania and the Indians. The forward
pass was called Into use several times, but
aid not work well for either team.
