" NEWBRITAINLOSES 10 PROVIDENCE Steam Rollers Score in Last Minute and Win, 7 to 0 The largest crowd in the history| of professional football at Providence saws the Steam Rollers defeat the All-New Britain team at Kinsley, park, Sunday, 7 to 0, The victors scored the only teuchdown of the; game in the closing minute of play in the fourth perlod, when Clark went over from the one-yard line on| the third down. While the New Britain team was defeated, it fought | every inch of the way, and at the| close of the contest Dboth elevens| ghowed the result of a bitterly waged battle, | For three periods, the New Britain boys prevented the Rollers rromi bringing the ball into their trrrltory.! The line bolsteréed with Nealon and| Blanchard showed up brilllantly. Time and again,. the locals hurled | back Gdin, Clark and Walkenshaw in| their attempts to smash through for galns. Malone, Nealon, Rogers, Franke] and Politis were superb and | Conley, Blanchard and Paulson held down the flank positions in an A-1 tanner. “Koppie” Makes Good. Quigley failed to put in an nppgur-i anee and Henry Koplowitz was con- verted Into a quartérback. The game had not gone very far, when it could be peen that Quigley was not going| to be missed. ‘Kopple” used his head in good style and his catching and running back of punts was of a Charlie Buell variety. Captain Bar- nikow starred both on the offense| and on the defense. Several times, the popular captain wiggled and| squirmed through the heavy Rollers line. He also outpunted Samson. | Déwey Carpenter was at fullback: throughout the game ahd he played in his best form of the season. In the second period, ‘‘Carp” reeled off & 8b-yard run that brought the spec- tators to their feet. Peterson did most of the tossing of forward passes, | several of them being successful. Paulson grabbedsone of Pete's heaves in the second period that advanced | the ball well into the Rollers’ terri- tory. The New Britain backfield| men lacked .the punch, however, = to rush the ball over. Two attempts at joals from placement. were tried by iptain Barnikow, both being fail- yres, and Peterson once tried a field 3l which did not come anywhere g:lr its mark, ! #.The Providence team securea Clark, the star of the Submarine ige eleven, for its backfield, and it due to him that the victory was gk( up.

Rollers Get “Break’. The “break’that cost New Britain | & draw, came in the closing minutes| of the last quarter. With the Provi- dence team in possession of the ball, en New Britain's 40-yard line, sev- eral changes were made in Barni- kow's lineup, Frankel and Malone, who had been doing herculean work, being taken out. It scemed at this time as though the line attack of the Rellers would be' checkéd long enough for the whistle to blow. The Rollers, however, by two plunges of Walkenshaw, Clark made ‘ft a first down on the 30-yard line. | Here Samson dropped back and! hurled a long forward pass to Odin. The ball struck Odin on the chest, and bounced off right into the arms of a Rollers lineman. The ball was now on the New Britaln four-yard line. It took only two plunges for Odin and Clark to rush it over, the Jatter player making the point. He also kicked the goal. The summary: New Britain Conley ...... Steam Rollers . Lester O'Neil .

It was thought that Berry had been injured about the head, butinstead it was a painful leg bruise. He was able to walk today, but it is doubtful if he will play Saturday against Rutgers. Ceach Sutherland gave great credit to the Presidents’ backfiéld for their sen- sational comeback victory over Lafay- ette. “Their back field rates with the tastest.

The latter, who has been playing in the middle o the line for the gredter part of the season, s heavier than the veteran snapback and in better shape. Clark, hcwever, is a great man to have on the team, being one of the best Fish- er has on defense, as well as absolute- ly steady in his passing.

Chicago, Nov. 6.—(By the Associat- ed Press)-——Wisconsin and Michigan, two of the leaders in the fight for the ‘Western .conference title, gave con- tions at the top of the percentage columns in Saturday's game. Wiscon- sin defeated Minnesota, an old enemy, 14 to 0, while Michigan was over- whelming the Michigan Aggies eleven 63 to 0. Minnesota's defeat eliminat- ed the gopher team, temporarily at least, from the conference race, leav- ing Michigan, Chicago, Wiseorsin and Iowa in the undefeated class. In the other conference games Illi- nois won, 6 to 3, from Northwestern. Stepping outside the big ten, Indiana went down 27 to 0.before Notre Dame and Puordue lost to Wabash, 6 to 7. Michigan’s showing against the Ag- gles was not unexpected and the pow- erful offensive developed by Yost's men, even with second and third &tring men in the line-up, marks the wolverines as a leading title contend- ér. With two weekg of idle time to prepare for Wisconsin on Nov. 18 the wolverines are expected to be at the top of their game.

Only 76,000 seats can be construeted, including the temporary accommodations '~ which have been made available for this year's game. Decision has just been reached to cut down the number of tickets allowed the alumni from three totwo tickets each. Mr. Woodeock sald today that under the conditions this step was Imperative. Four years- ago it was pecessary to reduce the number of tickets allowed the alumni from four to three, and it was believed that this number ¢ould be assured this year. Only after going ovér the éntire situation have the two graduate man- agers asserted that the further reduc- tion from three to" two must be put into effect during thé game this Fall. The statement authorized by Messrs. Woodcock and Moore assert- ed that no application can be filled and that hope of a public sale is vain. Last year both Yale and Harvard dropped to two tickets each for the alumni, Harvard giving only a ticket each to certain classes of its appli- cants, All applications for tickets by the Yale and Harvard managers. Already about 150,000 requests both formal and informal, for tickets have been made and it is believed at Yale that if any encouragement were given the total requests would number a quarter of a million. Ppices which buyers in the open market will pay for speculative tickets are expect- ed to reach higher levels than ever hefore. Yale and Princeton have been un- able to satisfy any.late applications and non-personal applicgtions fer the game in Palmer Stadium.
