HARVARD PUTS OVER TWO TOUCHDOWNS. Showed Stiff Defensive Game. At Cambridge on Saturday on afield that resembled a_quagmire owing to a heavy rain which fell throughout the game, Harvard defeated Amherst by a score of 11 to 0. By -lough- ing through the turf in the last two _periods, the Crimson managed to scory two touchdowns, one in the third ps!} iod by Reynolds after a 37-yard run through a slipping, sprawling and scat- tered field, and the second by Wen- dell, whos tumbled across the Amherst zoal line on the first play in .the fourth period. Hollister kicked a goal from the first touchdown, but failed cn his second attempt. Although the visitors could not cross mid-field in the first two periods, they effectually blocked all Crimson at- temps to score..

New York, Oct. 22—The trading on the stock exchange yesterday was ‘without feature and represented mere- 1y the operations of professicnals, with practically no commitments made by the outside public. Prices moved in a narrow range, opening a little down from Friday, soon rallying, then mov- ing sharply downward and closing at general net declines, few of which ex- ceeded fractions. The initial weakness s connected in the comment of trad- ers with the latest address of the pres- ident, in which he again stated the purpsse of the administration to pros- ccute combinations of capital which vresumeably were operating in viola- tion of-the Sherman law; but the re- affirmation of his position was not long a controiling factor in the course of prices. Chesapeake & Ohlo as the Imost vul- \I’N‘r‘d'l)le stock on the list, selling down |3 1-4 points on its unfavorable an- nual report and its weakness was com- municated to other issues, and gave aid znd comfort to the beers, who were active during the short session. Little news bearing upen the general situation developed. The fortnigntly statement of the American Rallway association, as of October 11, showed a decrease of more than fourteen thousand in the number of idle freight cars as compared with two weeks pre- viousiy, the total number unemployed being mow the smalilest since the end of November, ani this showing last tended to indicate a broadening of the business activities of the country; but |as an_offset to t favorable indica- {tion the bank clearings of the United States, which are commonly Tegarded as a fairly accurate index of the vols, { ume of husiness, were reported for the last week as between 5 and 6 per cent. | smaller than for the corresponding week of 1910.

J MANUFACTURE! WEST POINT SMEARS YALE’'S CLEAN RECORD Soldier Eleven Defeats the Blue, 6 to 0, or Slipoery Field. In a greasy strugsle on the We: Point_gridiron on Saturday in which both sides nad sometimes to swim for the ball, the West Point cadets by better Chargfl}g and ability to hold on to the pigskin won from the uncer- tain players from Yale, for the second consecutive year by a score of 6 to 0. The army scored in the first four minutes of play, yvhen Dean captured the ball on a Yale fumble on the Biue's 30 vard line and then circled Yale's right end for a 27 yard run to the three yeard line from which in two If any baseball strategist wants to show How this could be plaved any better, now is a good time to speak and the sporting editor of The Bulle- tin will be giad to hear what they have to say. PRINCETON AND.NAVY IN SCORELESS TIE Tigers Blocked Navy’s One Chance to + Score on Field Goal. A record breaking crowd of 10,000 persons at Annapolis Saturday saw the naval academy and Princeton play football to a scoreless tie. Although neither goal was at any time serlously endangered,«the game Was a stirring one from the viewpoint of the spec- tators. The work of the Tigers was the more consistent. Their speed and ag- gression in attack kept the midship- men on the go most of the time, but this advantage was offset by Captain Dalton’s superiority over Dewitt on pnting. Dalton gained a little on every exchange of kicks and in addi- tion” played a wonderful secondary defense game. Each team made a try for a field goal. Princeton's effort was made early in the first period, but it was not until the last minutes of play were approaching that the eadets tried the play. After a good return run by Dalton on an exchange of punts and a line plunge followed by a five yeard penalty, which put the pigskin on the 30 yard mark, the midshipman made a last effort to score from the field. But the Tiger forwards got through and blocked Dalten's attempt, FOUR BIG FELLOWS NOT SCORED ON YET Brown, West Point, Harvard Trinity With Clean Slates.

WILL BE PLAYERS' SHARE. Present MWorld’s Series Beating A. Records For Receipts. $3,000 APIECE Players who will share in the split- ting of the receipts for the world series are assured of enjoying the big- gest slice ever handed out. In previ- ous years $1,800 was a high water mark, but when the present series ends indications point to the individu- al players drawing down as much as $3,000 apiece. ¥or the three games dlready played the receipts have totaled $196,914. Of this the players are due to geceive $105,793, and the game at Philadelphia the last in which the players share, should add’ at least $25,000 to the purse. This means close to the $3,000 mark for each of the winners and at le=st $1,000 above the best mark of previous world series. E TWO TOUCHDOWNS BEAT BALTIC CONVENT SCHOOL Carter and Swanson Score Victory for Public School, 10 to 0. Baltic public school football eleven won the game on Friday afternoon from the convent school eleven after an exciting contest, which ended wilh the score 10 to 0 in favor of the pub- lic_school boys. Tom Carter scored the first touch- down for the winnars, intercepting & forward pass and scooting 65 yar to cross the goal line. Swanson was the touchdown maker for Baltic public school for their sec- ond touchdown. No goal was kicked from eiiher. No Academy Game. Because of the rain on Saturday, the football game that was to be played between the Norwich Free Academy and the Hartford High school elevens here was postponed. It is possible that a return date in Hartford may ‘be arranged. Montvil Unwilling To Play In Rain. Wet weather cheated the T.aurel Hills out of their football game which they were to have plaved Saturday afternoon at Montville. The boys went down to ontville, but found the Montville eleven unwilling to play. rushes he was pushed over for the first score against the Blues this season. A minute later he kicked a pretty goal, and the score stood 6 to 0, where it remained, although both elevens had a fierce struggle to the finish in the gathering twilight. West Point has not been scored onl this year, but the game was one of the surprises of the football season, for Yale was not only confident of winning, but expected to run up a score of double figares and hold the Cadets cn their side of the field. What might have been the result had there been a dry fleld can only be conjec- tured. The Cadets’ celebration at the close of the game was picturesque. The entire corps joined hands around the rectangle and with heads uncovered cheered' the big black, gold and gray silk flag in the center and then es- corted it back to the barracks. The ;army outplaved Yale at every point and continually threw the Blue _backs for no gains and many losses. With their hands well rosined, the cadet back field only : fumbled two of Yale's 26 punts, while the army forwards got the jump on thes Yale line at every down. Yale stood once on the army’s 30 vard line, but was never nearer the cadet goal. On the other hand, Gillespie, a brilliant end, grabbed a muffed ball by Philbin in the center of the fleld and slipped to the one yard line before a Yale player overhauled him with a bulldog grip. A score seemed inevitable, but on the first rush, in which Yale held fine, the army was also detected at holding, and the cadets were sent back 15 yar There an effort was made for a place- ment goal, but Yale easily blocked the kick. It is many vears since a football game has been played under such se- vere conditions, The gridiron was a rectangular swamp and =it rained throughout the game so that time was frequently called that the players might have their faces sponged and dried. Nearly all were blinded by the mud in which they rolled and wallow- ed. Six thousand spectators stood in the rain, but only the cadets and their guests showed any enthusiasm during the contest. The speed of the cadet ends, Gallespie and Hodgé, and the foresight of the West Point coach in supplying his back field with rosin contributed largely to West Point's victory. No Yale back could get started in running back a kick before these two greyhounds were pulling him down and frequently Yale men would he thrown back for a loss of from 5 to 8 vards. BROWN OUTPLAYS PENN. Providence Collegians Defeat Quaker Eleven, 6 to 0. Without 'the semblance of a fluke the Brown university football team de- feated"Pennsylvania at Philadelphia on Saturday by the score of 6 to 0. Al- though the winning touchdown was not scored until the fourth period there was hardly a minute in which the Philadelphia_team was not outplayed by the New Englanders. Not once dur- ing the entire contest did the Quakers menace Brown’s goal, while the Prov- idence teampwas always on the ag- gressive. The fourth period was only five min- utes old when Brown had crossed Pennsylvania’s line. Just before the third_period ended Brown had taken the Ball to Pennsylvania’s one vard line by a succession of clever forward passes and end runs. With only a yard to gain Brown had to surrender the ball on downs. After two ex- changes of kicks Brown got the ball on ‘Penusylvania’s 44 vard line and from this point marched straight down the field for the touchdown. Sprackling and Tenney did most of the Brown’s ground gaining. Tenney carried the ball from the 20 to the 5 vard line on a forward pass over the fine of scrimmage from Sprackling and hen with one tremendous plunge went over the mark for the score. Ashbaugh kicked the goal. + BIG GAME OFFICIALS. the Harvard’s Announcement About Princeton and Yale Contests.

BRILLIANT SEASON - FOR HARNESS HORSES om] possmoT Aiied Sjuesy pue uelyp World’s Records. The campaign of the light harness brigade down the “big line,” which means from Indianapolis, where the first meeting of the grand circuit was held this season, to Lexington, where the kines and queens of the trotting and pacing world meet for their final battle for money and glory, erded last week. It was a brilliant season, de- spite the interference of rain, which pfactically ruined several of the meet- ings. . It was hoped that the weather con- ditions would be ideal fer ‘the final ular size coal hod. AND WARRANTED BY SMITH meeting at Lexington, where arrange- ments had been made by the mew management of the Lexington asso- ciation park to close the season in a whirl of glory. Rain interfered dur- ng.the past week, which split up the card and had its effect on the record- smashing performances _which were pected after the sensational racing which featured the first week of the meeting. Rain cost several associations many thousands of dollars this season, and there were other drawbacks which will have to be considered when the stewards of the grand circuit meét to arrange the schedule for next season. The withdrawal of the, Columbus as| sociation proved a hard blow to the grand circuit, for the meefing at Buf- falo anc Goshen suffered, and it is hardly likely that Goshen will be in line next season. Ome or two of the associations tried to escape loss of money by declaring off events. This caused many trainers of big stables hardships, which they will no doubt 10 prevent next ye There be a rule against su A prac- and some action will likely be taken when the circuit stewards meet. Many werld's records were broken during the season just closed, though there were ro new.admissions to the charmed circle of 2-minute harness Lorses. Uhlan, the champion trotter, lowered the world's record for trot- ters to wagon to 53 5 1-4 secands at Cleveland and equaled the-wcrld’s rec- ord of 2 minutes for a mile to wagon over the\same track. The Harvester made two attempts to beat his record of 201, put failed. Frank Perry, by Toddington, lowered the world's record for yearling pacers to 2.15 in an exhi- bition against tinie at Lexington on September 12. TRICK PLAY§ GO BEST EARLY IN GAME Eckersall Says That Is the Time to Pull off the Deceptive Stuff. Football players and coaches have different ideas as to the best lime in contests to spring trick plays or any other fakes which might catch oppos- ing, teams off guard. Many beileve the® substitusion, of fast and elusive players in the latter stages of the zame is the best time to spring a de ceptive play, while others hold a di- rectly contrary opinion, says Walter Eckersall. In" football it is a well- known fact that at the beginning of contests the players are not thorough- alert to the situation, and these who have played the game know the men do not enter the game with the proper spirit until they have been tackled a few times or hit opponents hard in the interference. The minds of fe players are not sharpened to the situation and they do not gain that alertness or aggressiveness which they acquire as the games Drogress. In 1906, the first year of the for- tvard pass, the old “shoestring” trick invariably was attempted on the piay | following a kickoff. The defensive | team has not yet become accustomed | to the play and as‘® result it often was Zood for substantial gain: : A number of teams, especially high and preparatory elevens, attempt the play this year, but as there.is no de- ception in the formation it generally fails against a. well coached team. Coaches of the big elevens reprimand a player severely if he is tricked on a play of this kind, aithough the play zenerally 1s attempted some time dur- ing an imvortamt contest. There is such a great chance of its ultimate success that the majority of the men- tors are willing to take chances with the play, but so many formations can be evolved from sending a man to one side of, the field or the other that it now is foolish to take a chance with a forward pass unless the offensive play- er near the side line is not covered by a member of the wefensive eleven, Th moment a player, on the offen siv team is sent wide on either tremity of the line the defense weakened to the extent that it must send a man to watch the shifted play- er. Under these conditions formations can be evolved of deceptive character hich can be sent on the opposite side from the shifted player, althaugh the defensive eloven nine times out of ten will expect the play on the strong side. Invariably on the down following the initial kick-off in a game the playérs stand erect and attempt to discern the weaknesses of their opporents. It is several seconds before the teams clash in the first scrimmage. The players are not warmed up to the conflict, and as a result they overlook many things which they spot in an instant as the contest progresses. As a result the best and most opportune tirae to spring a trick or deceptive play is on the play fellowing the first kick-off.

ANTHONY 60.. BosToN, mass: | i T Allows replaced come tired and the offensive eleven cannot negotiate the playewith the quickness and cunning that it could at the start of a contest when the play- ers are fresh. Although the rules committee has done all in its power to discourage the onside kick, there still remains a way of using a play which has been one of the most successful in football. Pennsylvania used the play against Michigan last seasom, but the kicker, booted the ball out of bounds before the onside players had an op- portunity to recover it. In attempting s play Pennsylvania’s three backs were sent wide and were in such po- gitions as to be behind the ball when was kicked. The end on the oppo- site side from which the backs shifted played out close to the side line, thus weakening the Michigan defense, as the shifted end had to be covered. The five center men held their posi- tions, their instructions being to block until the ball was kicked. On a certain signal the quarterback moved back to a point five yards be- hind the scrimmage line and then hooted the ball to the side of the shifted backs. One of these backfigld players was delegated to recover the ball while the other* twodcl'licked op- ponents who had crossed the. mage line. Pennsylvania attempted the play in the third quarter when the score was tied, and when the ball was on the Wolverine 30-vard line. Jack Monty Challenges Albert Gravel.
