VCoIonels Fight Themselves
Into an .Even Break With
Crimson at End of First
; Half McMUIin Stars.
f Cambridge, Mass Oct. 23. Har
vard'i foot ball finese, weight and en
durance, triumphed over Centre Col
lege'f individual gridiron brilliancy
today in one of the most thrilling in
i tersectional games in many . years.
. Although defeated, 31 to 14, the Dan
; vilre, Ky collegians gave a won
derful exhibition, considering the
. handicaps under which a small col
lege eleven labors against a teamot
Harvard caliber. ' ' - 1
: In the first half Centre College
showed gameness and foot ball abil
ity which gained them the support
, of the 40,000 spectators. The "Pray
- ing Colonels," as the southern play
ers are known, matched effort for
effort with the Crimson and at the
end of the half had fought .them
selves into an even break with Har
vard, 14 to 14. . ,
Lack Strong Defense. '
.' That the team of an institution
wUan enrollment of about 300 stu-
' V,' should be able to match an
historic and established f opponent
throughout the first 30 minutes of
play, stamps the Centre College elev
en as one worthy of all the praise.
.which had preceded it Unensively
the "Colonels" showed a game fully
equal to that of Harvard, but they
lost through the lack of a strong de
fense. 1 .
Long, brilliantly executed forward
passes, spectacular broken field runs,
quick dashes through smartly made
holes, interspersed punts and field
goal tries, lifted the conflict far above
the ordinary gridiron encounter.
It was in the final 30 minutes that
Jhe Crimson machine really demon-
strated- its powerful attack and de
- fense. McMillan, Weaver, King and
, Roberts all proved their ability more
than to hold their own with the best
. of the home team. But the Centre
offense had been developed far be
yond it's team defense, and the
Southerners were unable to check
the steady grinding attack. . While
Harvard's attack was apparently ir
restible from a Centre standpoint,
the Crimson was early mthe game
baffled bv its opponent's overhead
offense and broken field running.
The broader gridiron education of
Harvard, however, enabled them to
'solve this puzzle early uv the third
period.
Harvard Scores First ;
1 Centre players had come on the
field after the team's customary
prayers in the dressing room. De-
feat did not imply failure of their
i prayer, "one of them said after the
contest, as the team prays not to
win, but, that its members may do
their best. . .
Play was less than five minutes
Harvard scored its
i,Vc tiMirhdown. Owen twistedJ
through the open defense of Centre,
Churchill working, with him for
open running co-operation advanc-
ing the ball from Harvard's 35-yard
lirt to a touchdown, Owen carrying
it over. Faxon, kicked goal. Soon
afterwards, under the drive of Mc
MUIin. Centre tore 70 yards m for
ward passes, line plunges, runs, and
criss-cross plavs to . a touchdown
by Roberts. Weaver kicked goal.
The second period had barely
opened when a Centre touchdown
came. Standing on his own 32-yard
line, McMillin received the ball, then
tossed it 30 yards down the field to
Whitnell. Down the field he raced,
crossing the line with three runners
' on him. . i L
Centre College was ahead butjiot
for long. The southerners three
times stemmed the Crimson rushes.
hut finally Churchill crashed through
for a touchdown. The half ended
with the score a tie. ;t ...
In the second half Harvard s de
fense rolled back' three Centre
rushes. Centre was forced to punt
A forward pass and a long run by
Churchill preceded a touchdown by
Horween.
- McMillan Races 30 Yards. , -McMillan
raced 30 yards and after
line plunges failed, he tried a for
ward pass, uwen aeiiecieo rat van
to Horween, who ran 25 yards. After
three plays had failed to gain. Hor
ween kicked a field goal from the 32-
yard line. . , TT
The next score came, when Have
meyer intercepted a forward pass
and-Harvard started an advance
which Horween crowned with a
touchdown. . ', , '
Aftef. the kickoff, M&Iillin, by
forward pass and short rush, sent
Centre down the field. A Crimson
penalty of 15 yards for holding and
another a few minutes later, brought
I he ball to Harvard's 20-yard line.
Another rush by Roberts gained
only two yards and McMillan for
ward passed to King on Harvard's
iive-yard ' line. Four times the
southerners rushed without avail.
They tried a forward pass, but Hor
ween pulled the ball flown. . Within
a few seconds he had it on the 35
yard line. Harvard continued its
advance to Centre's 12-yard line.
Then McMillin intercepted a forward
pass and had set his team for 'an
other drive when the game ended. :

Fought Content.

drop-kicker, booted his team to a
3 to 0 victory over Creighton uni
versity on the latter's field yesterday
afternoon in one of the hardest
fought gridiron contests over staged
on the local field.
The lanky Aggie kicked the ball
from the 26-yard line in the last
period f Play fr his team's lone
three tallies and enough points to
win the struggle. During the early
part of the final quarter,. Condon
booted the pigikin to the visitors on
their own 36-yard line. A series of
line plunges and off-tackle plays
netted the Aggies a first down and
on the next play, a flip, Hinds to
Sebring, placed the oval on Creigh
ton's 10-yard mark.
The Catholics massed and the
Kantans tried to smash through the
Creighton team, but without success.
Two end runs lost 10 yards for the
visitors, and with the ball on the
locals' 20-yard line, to the right side
of the goal posts, Quarterback Hinds
of the invaders called for a tfrop
kick. Huston pulled out of the first
line of defense and dropped back
and successfully booted the ball be
tween the standards.
' Results in Kicking Duel.
Soon after the start of the first
quarter it was evident that the game
would end up In a kicking duel be
tween "Huston of the Aggies and
Condon. The visitors were put to
a test all the way, and it was the
Kansas guard who booted the ball
out of danger on several occasions..
The Aggies outplayed the Cath
olics from start to finish, but were
unable to plow through the Creigh
ton line for a touchdown. Coach
Mulholland's squad made only five
first downs during the contest, white
the Kansas team smashed its way
through the line and around the end
wings for eighteen first downs.
Creighton gained 86 yards in
scrimmage, while the Aggies regis
tered 254 yards through the Omaha
team.
During the first quarter, after an
exchange of punts, the Aggies
worked the ball down the field with
line smashes and end runs 'for a
total of five first downs. With the
ball in Kansas possession on Creigh-
ton's 28-yard line, Crowe!) circled
right end, and before he was downed
the "ball was on the Blue and White
squad's 23-yard line. At this stage
of the game, the Catholics put up a
stonewall defense in front of their
opponents and after the Aggies had
attempted to gain by off-tackle plays
and around the ends, Creighton took
the oval and Condon kicked out of
danger.
Second, Half Like First.
The second half was a repetition
of the first, with first -Kansas and
then Creighton running with the ba1l.
During the early part of the final
quarter. Ccmdon kicked to Kansas.
The Aggies started smashing their
way toward Greighte-n's goal line,
when Hinds shot a 40-yard pass to
berbing, who completed the flip on
Creighton's 10-yard line.
A trick play lost grounds for thi
visitors and an end-run failed to ad
vance the pigskin. The Catholics
were blocking the march of the Ag
gies toward their chalk mark wheo
Husjon dropped back, and irom the
Catholic 7-yard line, successfully
booted the drop kick which defeated
Creighton. ;.'
The contest was a lonsr drawn out
affair. Minor injuries to the players
an,d "time out' was frequent during
the last half.
Game Without Feature.
Aside from the kicking of Huston
and Condon, the game was without
a feature. ;
The work of Manlevl Condon, and
Harmon was the best part about the
Creightoh side of the contest, al
though the tackling of JBentlage, and
terry deserves credit -
Hustons kicking and the line
smashing and end-runs of Crowell.
Shears and Yandill was the bright
spots on the Aggie machine.

Fight Fans in U S. Want, Georges
Carpentier to Meet Other Heavies
" Georges Carpentier hasn't satisfied
the boxing fans in this country that
he is a world beater.
The dapper Frenchman beat the
veteran Bat Levinsky in something
more than . three rounds, but the
boys who witnessed the bout will
tell you he might just as well have
beaten a carpet. How come?
Simply because Battler didn't fur
nish the opposition necessary to
bring Carpentier out. He wasn't
even a good punching bag, because
he didn't flop back at the French
man after being hit, and he didn't
furnish enough opposition gto force
Georges to uncover his bag of tricks.
Fact is, Georges was wide open like
a door all the time he was stepping
about Levinsky.
After the fight a lot of people in
Omaha began guessing. Some of
'em figured mebbe Bat had found
something under his pillow. Others
figured it was the worst kind of a
mismatch, and still others -doped it
out that what the Battler found was
an all too caressing French fist di
rectly under his lower maxiliary
that persuaded him to flop the min

In the third period, the Cornhusk
ers opened up, and after the first
tally, had little difficulty in adding
two more. Statistics of the game
show that the Nebraska team was
far superior to that of South Dakota.
The Cornhuskers were, however,
very slow in getting started.
- Pucelik Stars.
Pucelik. the 200-pound Nebraska
tackle, played his usual consistent
game, with the addition of spurts
of stellar play that made him show
up especially good. Three times
during the game the speedy tackle
recovered blocked punts.
Wright, Moore and swanson,
played the best offensive game, ac
counting for a touchdown each,
Wright did most of the line smash
ing and got away with several fast
end runs. Moore got away in the
final period with a run from mid
field, but was forced out of bounds
on Nebraska's three-yard line. After
others had failed to out the ball
across Moore made a touchdown
on a wide end run.
One pass. Wright to Swanson. was
good for 17 yards and a touchdown.

mostly a punting1 duel with both
teams fighting hard to defend their
goals. Two line bucks brought

line. A triple pass, Wright to Swan-
son, was good for 17 yards and a
touchdown. Day failed to kick goal.
