As for Colgate, her scason was not up and down or in and out It was simply down and out. The Hamilton eleven emulated Yale, however, in its final engagement by giving a markedly su- perior opponent, a hard, spirited scrap actually making twice as many first | downs as the victorious team. The real surprise of Saturday was the ease with which Lafayette rent its triumphal way through Lehigh for a decisive victory. That same Lehigh machine, & week earlier, had held the Penn State juggernaut to a 7 to 7 tie and had thereby doubled its prestige at least. It was commonly expected to chastise Lafayette without marked difficulty. The outcome is a | huge ostrich plume in the Eastonian | cup. Fordham caught a tartar and beat | it, and Willlams caught a tartar and | didn’t beat it Boston College caught |a third of the same species in the | Marietta eloeven from the Buckeye | state, but managed to bring power enough to bdear to keep her slate un- smirched. Boston thereby remained listed with the Virginia Military In- stitute, the only unbeaten and untied | elevens of consequence along the At- lantic seaboard. Other teams which, although unde- feated, have been held level in one or more combats, are Harvard, Princeton, Penn State, Pittsburgh and Stevens. ! OUTLAWS WIN AGAIN.

This bout will top a card oY three other ten round-bouts in addition to a six rounder between Young Mack and Battling Green of Hartford, who will usher in the show. Unusual interest is being manifest- ed in the Reimer-Pilkington go. RNel- mer has been winning bout after bout, taking the measure of several worthy opponents. But whether he will able to cope with such a clever and shifty boxer as Pllkington remains to be seen. As some critics of the game point out the bout “will either make or break Reimer."” A victory over Pil- kington will put him in line for bouts with the best boys in the feather- welght ranks.

LOSE AT MERIDEN Local Football Eleven Runs Up Against a Snag in Speedy Mohicans ~—=Score Is 11 to 0. The local Empires met their sec- ond defeat of the season yesterday afternoon at the hands of the Mo- hicans of Meriden. The game was played on the Aeolian field of that city. The gnme was fast and clean and it was no discredit to the Empires to meet defeat by the Mohicans as they were a much heavier team than the Empires outweighing them by about 15 pounds to a man The Mo- hicans scored their first touchdown in the first five minutes of play and the next one came in the third quarter when Grey, a local man, recovered a fumble and scored a touchdown. The Mohicans have played such teams this season as the American Chain of Haven and were defeated by a very low saore Dunnigan, Stefnick, Anderson and Recore again featured for the pires while Barnikow, Nelson and Grey showed some fine form for the Mohicans.

The final score was 28 to 0, and when it was taken into con- sideration that the Capitol City eleven had a team that was trained 100 per | cent. more efficiently than the locals, ! it can be readily grasped that only the fighting spirit of the locals kept the score as low as the above figure, To V‘ the visitors belongs the spoils. but let | is be said that the exhibition of Cap- tain “Shrimp” . Foley, of the Hartford | High team, takes its place among the * greatest ever turned in by an inter- scholastic performer in this section. The writer has in mind the sterling work of New Britain stars in years | gone by, but he also opines that | Foley's work last Saturday fully en- titles him to a very prominent place in the football hall of fame in the H. H. 8. Big Crowd on Hand A crowd estimated at close to 10,000 viewed the contest (at times). With- out criticizing, it was poor arrange- ments that were made. Time and again, time was "called, when it was found necessary to drive the fans off the playing enclosure. Thg players were also called into action to lend a helping hand in making it possible for the resumption of play. One per- fectly gold braided official did his level best to keep order, and three or four bluecoats lent a hand. How- ever, it would have taken an organi- zatian composed of the late 26th Divi- : sion to make the enthusiastics grasp the fact that football can be seen much better if order is preserved. N. B. Spirit Shown It was probably one of the great- est outpour of football enthusiasts in recent years to witness a struggle be- tween these two bitter rivals. There ds one thing that can be said to the everlasting credit of New Britain fans, that in the face of the most discourag- ing season in recent years, hundreds of 'em turned out to give a cheer for the Gold and» Maroon eleven. The team did the best it could under exist- ing circumstances. Mud, Mud, Everywhere The writer is aquainted with the Clay Hill section of Hartford, but it remained for the game Saturday to locate the mud banks. This was at Trinity field, but the Hartford team with its wonderful backfield, suffered greater lass by far than New Britain due to the mud. Cheering was one of the big features of the day, both schools being represented by rooters of both sex, and a band. The Game Tt was shortly before 2:30 o'clock that the teams made their appearance. New Britain, headed by Captain Peplau, rushed on the mud covered field first, and the New Britain stands broke forth with a storm of applause. The regulars ran through a signal practice up and down the field. In the meantime, the Harford High jumped the rope, and began gaing through the preliminary paces. When referee Aylesworth appeared on ‘the field, the captains were led to the playing enclosure. The call of the coin was won by Captain Foley, who elected to with New Brit- ain kicking off. At 2:35 o'clock, Cap- tain Peplau booted the ball to Mec- Coy who by fast foot work, rushed it back 20 yards. Two smashes at the line by Escholtz and Barclay, brought the pigskin to the 35 yard line. On the next play “shrimp” Foley, the *“Man rtford team, dashed round New Bri n's right end for touchdown. H. P. H. S. Work Fast Barclay kicked off to Appel, who made a fine dash of 12 yards. On the next play, New Britain suffered the first penalty of the game, for affside. Two rushes into their line were con- tributed by Berner and Appel, and then Captain Peplau punted to Foley, It was short work that the Blue and White made before the next touch- down was registered. Barclay and McCoy were sent into the line for substantial gains. Captain Foley than | called off Crosby’s number, and one | of Hartford's colored fliers (they had two) sprinted 45 vards for a touch- down, and Barclay kicked the swine- | skin between the uprights. | The remainder of the game can be summarized briefly.

Pete, you wouldn’t have to consult a guide book to know you were in the Camel fac- tories! The atmosphere is charged with that wonderful aroma you get when you open up a deck of Camels! And, you know, old elephant—you’ve had a trunk full! As the Camels dropped into the contain- ers I figured the delight each one would supply!
