Battering Their Way to a Touchdown in the Early
Minutes of Play the Locals Continued to Outplay
The Mountaineers in All Departments, ; Even
With Reserves in Lineup Outcome Big Surprise.
Princeton, N. J., Nov. 8. Harvard
and Princeton played a 10 to 10
tie game today in what was probably
the most thrilling foot ball contest
ever staged in Palmer Memorial
Stadium. The thirty or more
thousands spectators were in al
most a constant pitch of excite
ment as the teams fought their
wav through the game.
The ' Cambridge eleven on the
short end of a score almost all
the way. staged a wonderful come
back and playing desperately in the
last minutes of the contest, stayed
off defeat and tied the score. There
was a breathless moment, .when
Church, of Harvard, carefully sur
veyed the angle he had ,to kick
and then swiftly but surely sent
the pigskin between the goal posts
that gave the fighting Crimson
team its tenth point.
' While Harvard must be satisfied
with the result of the game, the
fact that the team failed to win
was a keen disappointment to her
followers. Rated as one of the
most powerful .elevens in the east,
her supporters looked for victory
over Princeton which had lost the
last two games it played. The fact
that Harvard had an easy schedule
prior to todiy's game was dis
counted by the Crimson's enthusi
asts who pointed to the large
scores the team has made as show
ing the power and drive behind her
style of play.
Princeton was immensely pleased
vwith the game. In fact many of her
followers consider the result a
virtnrv With a nnnr record so fir
, as the season has gone, thousands
of her supportersdid not look for
success, and the showing made was
a surprise.
' Adopt Forward Passing.
It was evident that Princeton took
la leaf from the book of experience,
for immediately after the game
started it adopted the tactics played
against it by the West Virginia team
last Saturday, when the Tigers were
carried off their feet by the splen
did forward passing of the Moun
taineers. Using Trimble and Stru-.
bing exclusively in , this work,
Prinecton, with a few other varia
tions in carrying the ball, took the
pigskin from its own 20-yard line
right down the field for a touch
down early in the first period. Its
playing completely took the Crim
son, men - by surprise. Harvard
fought desperately-to stop the play,
but the fighting Nassau, team never
v faltered until the ball was planted
behind the goal post? by Trimble,
who got it from Strubing on a lat
eral pass.
Harvard in the third period prof
ited by a Princeton fumble and
managed to work the ball close
enough to the goal line to permit
Horween, who was sent in to make
the play, to kick a field goal from
Princeton's 28-yard line.
Bad Pass Opens Way.
A bad pass and a blocked kick in
the final period gave Princeton
another" opportunity to score which
she accepted, F. L. Murrey going
in and booting the "ball for a field
goal, which raised her total points
to 10. Harvard followers lost heart
at this disaster, , but the team did
not. Princeton started a punting
game, Harvard finally got the ball
close to her ' opponent's territory
and adopting Princeton's .aerial
game varied by a few line plunges
carried the pigskm over the Tiger
line and put the Crimson men in a
position to easily tie the score with
the goal from touchdown.
Halfback Trimble and Quarter
back Strubing were easily the stars
of the Orange and Black team. Their
forward passing seldom missed fire
-and long - gains we're made every
imp the hall was successfully hurled.
Captain McGraw also played a won
derful game. F. L. Murrey; the
drop kick expert came up 'to ex
pectations when he wa's sent in to
try a field goal when the ball was
close enough for the play. It was
an easy try as the pigskin was di
rectly in front of the goal posts.
Casey, who was used more than
any other player on the Harvard
team, stood out "as the bright par
ticular star for .the ' Cambridge
eleven. 1
He seldom fafled to make his dis
tance when called upon and put
across "the touchdown that helped
tie the score. He was ably assisted
by Felton, who took Captain Mur-i-v'
nlace. in forward passing.
Hatnh Horween. substituting for
Riimham. also came through in fine
style' when called upon for a field
goal. .
Started Drive.
After Princeton had made the
' score 10 points on Murray's field goal
Harvard started her powerful drive
that warded off defeat. With short
plunges through center . and tackle
positions, interspersed with forward
passes, the Crimson steadily plugged
the ball two-thirds down the field
..n;t Jt u.9 a nver the coal line. The
srene as the Cambridge eleven tiedl
the score was the wildest witnessed
in the concrete stadium since it was
built With but a few minutes left,
both teams fought desperately to
break the tie, but neither had the
power to put across the winning
points.
The. 10 points scored by Prince
ton today are the first that have
been made against Harvard this
vear. Since the two teams resumed
football relations in 1911, Harvard
has won five games and Princeton
one. Princeton's victory was that
scored in 1911. Harvard won the
next five contests. Because of the
war the teams did not meet in 191
and 1918. 1
The weather today was ideal tor
t k-.il hut the stadium was not
crowded to capacitv there being
many vacant seats. The stands hold
more than 40,000. and the crowd was
little more than
3Knf - i .'
, Tommy Mills' Blue and White
eleven completely outclassed Coach
Parsons' Colorado College Tigers
yesterday at Creighton field and
walked leisurely away 1 with the
longer end of a 47 to 0 score. -'
The result of the contest was a
by kitrprise to Creighton, as the
Mountaineers were touted as' one
of the strongest teams in the Rocky
mountain conference.
The locals were never in better
playing trim. Colorado, on the
other hand, had five of "last year's
letter men at home crippled. With
the exception of one man, however,
the visitors were represented by the
same team that last Saturday de
feated the strong Colorado School
of Mines eleven at Colorado Springs,
7 to 3.
Tigers Were Confident.
The Tigers came here confident
of victory. Their home papers had
told repeatedly of Parsons' inten
tion to run his second team against
Creighton "as soon as going got too
swift" for the Nebraskans in or
der to ave the cream of his aggre
gation for the annual content with
Denver next Saturday. 1
Mills' men took the lead as soon
as the opening whistle sounded and
battered down the Mountaineers'
defense for four full Quarters, even
after the second team went into the
fray. Ten minutes driving away at
the line and the" ball rested seven
yards from Colorado's goal. Capt.
Gene Leahy moved it up two yards
closer and Cliff Long swept through
right tackle behind Paulsen and
crossed the line. Leahy kicked the
goal.
Mountaineers Helpless.
From that moment on it was a
slaughter. Colorado tried valiantly
to withstand the rushes of the
Creighton backs,, but the Blue and
White eleven was irresistible. Every
method of attack failed the-Mountaineers.
Forward passes, for which
they are famed in the west, were
broken up; end runs resulted in
losses; line smashes were1 piled up
on the line, of scrimmage and even
attempts to punt were blocked.
On the other" hand, every play
Creighton attempted met with suc
css in some measure. Cliff Long
wriggled around . the ends with
thrilling success, Leahy, Mullhol
land, Condon and McAleer plowed
through the mountain boys' defenses
like battering rams, and forward
passes advanced the ball time and
again for the Blue and White.
First Quarter.
Creighton received, defending the
north goal. McTavish kicked off to

Score: Creighton, 7; Colorado, 0.
Colorado received tthe kickoff" and
started working forward passes.
Briggs on the receivingend and
Bruce on the throwing end seemed

eral nice gains were chalked up to
the Mountaineers' credit through
the efforts of that pair.

ardo holding the ball on her owit
45-yard line.

ered the ball for Creighton. Ole
Paulsen dropped back to carry the
ball. "The fans screamed their de
light as he took his position. He
rambled around right end for 25
yards, with Colorado players hang
ing to him, trying to .bring him
down. With the ball on the 20-yard
line Ole took it again and advanced
it four yards. Leahy made six more
and Condon three. Condon plunged
through center onthe next play for
seven yards and a touchdown.

FEETSBALL has changed plenty since grandma was a sophbmore. A
photograph of the 1882 Princeton team shows the old boys wearing
. the Lord Dundrearys, enough hair to pack a silo, and outdoor pa
jamas constructed of choice cuts from one of Barnum & Bailey's main
tops. The uniforms were made of canvas and stencilled with warning's
to the opposition advising 'em to handle with care, avoid trespassing and
to use no hooks. Looked like they were going to play a team of col
lege baggage smashers. ' A . .
Can you pipe a geehokus starting on an ankle excursion with a com
plete set of Lord Dundreary's razor food flapping in the breeze? They
sure made a fine brace of handles. No old-timer ever snipped his wool
during the foot ball season for the same' reason that the engineers put
shock absorbers on flivvers. The wool took up the recoil in skull-on col
lisions. After 11 husky gippers had torn off a New York, New Haven
and Hartford with 11 other corn-fed cuckoos, the spectators couldn't tell
what had happened until the dandruff of battle had cleared away. Those
were the days of the flying wedges and tackles, which were popular until
th insurance companies combined to protect 'emselves from bankruptcy.
'
The flying wedge was thedarb. Made more widows than war and
quick lunch restaurants. The players finally canned this play, showing
that even a fish has to come up for air once in a while. The wedge was
designed to be played by orchestras of ambulance gongs only. The team
would smear 'emselves into a triangle of murder and arson and gallop
down the field distributing lose leaf pamphlets printed by the town's
leading embalmer. It was a brtitiful play. Especially, after the front
parlor was full of wreaths n::il ..oral tributes.
.T!u flv'ti;: tackle was another forerunner of) organized anarchy that'
helped t:i !. v the work of the census lakers. This play knocked many
a sweet p.aicr sour. Guards back was another pip. Jt is a scrimmage
play that is now barred every place in the civilized world but in the
Bronx 'subway. Too rough for foot ball. i
The hurdle stuff was also fine business. Like an old muzzle-loading
rifle, it did as much damage to the hunter as it did to the rabbit. The
Wright brothers grabbed the principle of the glider from lamping old
Phil King flap through the air like a flying squirrel. After thousands of
hurdlers had cracked their dome pieces the play was ruled off the track.
Even a foot' ball player's skull affords very punk terminal facilities for
the finish of a trans-collegiate flight.

sistance of Gene Melady, the local
sportsman, has arranged a great
show for( that night, with Jimmy
Drexel, tile local lightweight boxer
in a 10-round tilt with Frankie Cal
lahan of Toledo, O.
Both of these boys have appeared
in numerous private sh4ws in and
around Omaha and the followers of
this line of sport are well acquainted
with their individual styles and
ability. The bout between the two
should be a thrilling affair and, it is
a tssup in picking a winner.
Callahan has made quite a repu
tation of late, defeating a number of
good men in his division, and Drexel'
has also defeated a goodly number
of 135 pounders. Each is a lively
contender for title, though neither
has, as yet, attracted the attention
of Champion Benny Leonard. Calla

at Leonard, but if Drexel can de
feat him, the local lightweight will

most contenders", t
No announcement has been made
ai to the referee for the bout, but it
is likely that Ryan will officiate.
Denny has had considerable experi

should make a capable arbiter for
the Callahan-Drexel muss.

tion worked will.
Schellenberg, the Nebraska star
back, got into the game late in the
third quarter. The Husker elite
tore through the Missouri line on
one occasion for 33 yards. Dale
also did this slight stunt something
like 10 or 12 times. The light Tiger
line, though fighting hard, was easy
for the beefy fullback. Dale in in
stances practically walking through.
Henry figured largely in open field
running.

CHICAGO ELEVEN
TRIUMPHS OVER
MICHIGAN TEAM
t
Forward Pass' Important Fea
ture ofGame Between An
cient Foes, Windy City
and Wolverines.
Chicago, Nov. 8. Playing befote
25,000 persons, Chicago triumphed
over Michigan, its historic foot ball
foe, 13 to 0, today in a game in
which forward passes played an im
portant part. It was the first test
of strength between those two
elevens since the memorable 20 to 0
victory Chicago scored over the
Wolverines in 1905.
Brilliant use of the forward pass
turned the tide in Chicago's favor
after unsuccessful attempts had been
made to batter down the Michigan
defense. The Maroons failing to
pierce the Michigan forward wall
from the 1-yard line, opened up a
dazzling array of forward passes
tJiat resulted in a touchdown in the
second period and another in the
fourth.
With the ball on Michigan's 18
yard line, Graham, the Chicago quar
terback, shot a '10-yard pass to Mc
Donald, who dashed across the Wol
verines' goal for tie first score in
the second period. Higgins kicked
goal. In the fourth period, Graham
heaved a 20-yard pass, bringing the
ball to Michigan's 10-yard line.
Hutchinson ripped through the line
for 9 yards and Elton went over
on the next play for the second
touchdown. Higgins failed at goal.
With defeat facing them, the Wol
verines opened up a, bewildering
aerial attack in the fourth period.
Only two of the nine passes at
tempted were unsuccessful. ClirT
Sparks, the Michigan quarterback,
tried vainly to boot feld goals from
the 45-yard line, but his two at
tempts went wide of Chicago's goal.
Yale Defeats Brown in Hard
Grid Duel in Huge Bowl
New Haven, Conn., Nov.1 8. Yale
defeated Brown in a gruelling con
test in the Yale bowl today, 14 to 0.
The game was featured by the bril
liant offensive work of Kempton
and Braden of the Blue back field,
and the deadly tackling of Willbnis
and Albright, the Brown ends. The
Rhode Islanders threatened the Yale
goal line only 'once when they
reached the 25-yard line in the first
period, but were hold for downs.
One attempted field goal was
blocked. The visitors' goal' line
was in danger three times, outside
of the two Yale touchdowns. In
the third period Brown held the Blue
for downs on the two-yard line.
Gloom settled on the Yale sup
porters in the first minute of the
game when Kempton injured his
shoulder and was taken from the
lineup. He went back into the game
in the second period, but it was not
until the third period that Yale
displayed an attack which made vic
tory appear certain. Kempton made
a 30-yard run and Braden pierced
the Brown line for several good
gains. A forward pass, Kempton
to Neville, netted eight yards, and
then Braden went over for the first
touchdown. . 1
Campbell, substitute halfback;
carried the ball over the goal line
for Yale.
Michigan Aggies Defeat
South Dakota in First Period
East Lansing, Mien., Nov. 8.
Long gains by Springer and several
brilliantly executed forward passes
paved the way to a 13 to 0 victory
foe the Michigan Aggie over South
Dakota. The two touchdowns were
scored in the first two periods.
In the third period, Ashbey, South
Dakota's left halfback, tore a hol
through the Farmers' line and
reached the 25-yard line before be
ing overtaken by Springer. Tht
vstors worked 15 yards nearer th
Aggie goal before being stopped, an
intercepted pass giving Michigan
the ball, which was worked out ol
danger by a series of line smashes
and off-tackle plays.
Washington State College
Defeats Oregon by 7-0 Score
Portland, Ore., Nov. 8. Washing
ton State college defeated the Uni
versity of Oregon, 7 to 0, here in a
hard-fought game. The "break of
the game" decided the issue. Early
in the third quarter Brandenburg
of the Oregonians fumbled the ball
on a criss-cross play, Herreid re
covering it on Oregon's 22-yard line.
From there the .Staters marched to
dheir touchdown, the only one of
the game.
