NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1919. — ~ JACK ROURKE’S COLGATE TEAM LOOMS UP STRONG FOR FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP--RECORD CROWD EXPECTED TO WITNESS YALE-PRINCETON | GAME AT NEW HAVEN NOV. 15—HIGH SCHOOL TEAM HAS LITTLE DIFFICULTY DOWNING ALUMNI—NUTMEGS DEFEAT ALL HARTFORD TEAM 7-3 G ELEVENS NEAR HAMPIONSHIP TILTS RECORD CROWD T0 SEENEW HAVEN GAME [When a . coeedingly narrow margin. Both Coach Larry Bankart, who incldentally 1is himself a Dartmouth man and Coach Speers of the Green will doubtless bay a great deal of attention to aeronautics this week. Each team has @ strong defense, and a touchdown by stralght football is likely to be a great rarity, if not an impossibility.

Robertson proved at the Polo Grounds that, as a punter and drop kicker, e 1s among the elect. Whichever team wins is sure of a high posltion in tho race for the champlonship. Colgate will still have Syracuse to meet, Nov. 16, and Dart- mouth will play Pennsylvania and Brown in succeeding weeks, meeting in Pennsylvania another team that is among the leaders for the season’s laurels. Many observers had thought that Lafayette, especially after 1its splen- did showing against Princeton, which it held to a 9 to 6 score, would be able to give Pennsylvania much more o | of an argument than turned out to be i 4 tho case last Saturday. Lafayette did, in fact, come up to expectations in the first half, in which Bell's field goal represented the only points Penn could score. Tt v a different story for the remainde of the combat, which demonstrated, in felling fi ion, just what a magnificent machine Coach Bob I1folwell been able to bulld up among Quake!

The teams battled along for three periods with na score. In the fourth period, Landers kicked a fleld goal and things looked bad for the locals. However, the fighting spirit of the Nutmegs became aroused, and constant line smashing made it possible for Nervo Nelson to carry the ball over the goal line two minutes before the final blast of the referee’s whistle. Nelson dropped the pigskin, but the alert Winninger fell upon the ball, saving the day for the green-jerseyed hoys Andrews booted the ball through the bars from a diflicult angle.

Yale would have been willing to keep the ( price of $2 for the Yale-Harvard ame but the Harvard officials felt it desirable to establish the price at $2.50. Applications for tickets to the Harvard game also has been heavy and it was said that the demand from alumni and undergraduates will make extension of the purchasing privilege impossible. Fancy prices are expected to govern the tickets which find their way into hands of specula- tors for the Yale-Harvard game, which is scheduled for Nov. 22, in Cambridge. The Yale-Princeton mateh will be played here Nov. 15, in the Bowl. | ALUMNI LOSES TO | N. B. H. S. ELEVE Stars Show Bonenfant M.
