The Norwich team was accompanied by-a-big band of rooters, who made plenty. of noise under the direction of Raymond Burke and Harold Slattery.

England they paraded the streets with red fire, both boys agd girls, and on the cam- Pus a bonfire was iighted’ for the oc- casion when members of the team were called on for short speeches.

Nov. 6. —Taftville journey- ed to Plainfield on Saturday and . met with a crushing deféat by thd score of 7 goais to 1. The game was very even in_ the Tux ihalf, neither side being able to 8core, Taftville, considering their reorganized team, played a very strong game, Knowles. at center half putting in & tremendous amount of Wwork and being a big stumbling block in preventing Plainfield from scoring. Finjayson also kept out some . good shots. After the interval, Plainfield seemel to be working better together and were not long in scoring, Alexan- der sending in a beautiful shot just under the bar. Taftville then put in a spirited attack and from. a venter by Mather. Lewis made the scores equal. This seemed to rouse Plainfield to some of their true form and they began to run their opponents completely off their feet, A. Royle, Platt, Underwood and Fotts 3 scoring in ‘Quick succes- sion, the final score reading Plainfield 7, Taftville 1. The combination of the home team forwards in the latter part. of the game was very fine. The halfbacks and backs also placed the ball to their forwerds in good style. McCluggage kept o good goal.

Yale was again defeated on Satur- @ay afternoon making the fourth de- feat for the season, and the efforts of the new staff of coaches, which took the place of Frank Hinkley's staff a week ago seemed to have gone for naught, so far as Yale offense work was concerned. After the game the Brown men hurled their derbies over the Yate ®oal posts, and the hopes of Yale for 2 rousing season’s finish seemed. van- ishing in the purple haze just starting to_settle over West Rock. Yale was beaten cnly by a field goal, but out- played, for the greater part of the game. - The_rushing at the start ralsed the Yale hopes high, but when' the team got within striking distance - of the goal line it failed to gain. The Yale team only once seriously threatened the Brown line. That was in the first five minutes of play, and iate in the game Yale didn't get near enough to score a fleld goal and make the:con- Some features of ‘the game showed Yale slightly improved. The defence at the end was strong, but the inter- ference, which early in the game had been apparent, then disappeared. Van Ostrand at quarterback was a_dis- tinct improvement over Capt. Wilson, Who plaved at halfback and fiitted in there a little better than he dig in his former position. Three times Brown tried for a figia goal, for the Yale defense had a way of bracing as Brown threatened A touchrown In the middle of the third period Andrews botted ‘the bail over from the 20-yard line making the only score of the afternoon.

Other college toams, formerly factors in the annual struggle for football glory, failed to show any. eleventh hour improvement, winning or losing by small scores in mediccre exhibitions. Harvard Played Better Ball. Chief interest naturally. centered in the contest between Harvard and Princeton. The fact that the Crimson defeated the Tiger camnot be cata- logued among the sensations of the pigskin season, since it was generally conceded - that’ the two elevens were fairly matched. - It was more.in the marrer of the -winning than in the final result that the surprise developed. Faryard won because it played better football. both from .an. individual and from a team standpoint. Close stu- dents of the game have contended for some time that nothing short of a grid- iron miracle could put a new coaching system'at Princeton on a par with the one which Haughton-has -built up at Cambridge in the past five vears. The accuracy of these statements was borne out by the playing of the two teams. . Harvard's eleven is far from- being _the smooth but powerful machine that carried the Crimson to viétory in 1914, but on Saturday it was superior to the Nassau combina- tion. re’ was 4 markeéd Improvi ment in‘the play of the Tigers, how- ever, as compared. to their game of a| year ago and plenty of evidence ithat “Spoedy” Rush will lift Princeton foot- bajl tc a_high plan if given time to more than ‘the- foundation for a “Hne. b _carried the than half the'length of the to be hurled back. defense with it/ had not been- ball fleld, only ble to score Although Captain” Mahan was & ning asset” with his kicking ‘and .| Prirceton has a'trio of stars, but | Ware unable io fesch the round game against Brown than the Elis have developed in previous con- . tests this fall, it was not equal.to defeating the Providence team and. it would appear that both. Princeton and Harvard, which must be faced during the next two weeks, are mush superior tp the Blue. As was the case with the rinceton eleven, the Yale defense ap- to be stronger and™mere con- sistent than its attack. Yale Mcked the scoring punch when. a touchdown was within reach and, while the Blue ucceeded in holding Brown back her goal line, she could not prevent the kicking of the field xoal won the game. Since both Pri and Harvard have an attack s to Brown's and a defense fully as ef- fective as anything Yale has uncovered this season, the outlook for the Bull- dog in the hext two games is far from bright. to Mystify. 2 4 W. and J.

So closely did the Pittsburzh players cover the ball and its handers that Washington snd Jef- ferson was unable to make steady se- Tial gatns as in. previous contests. The' danger involved in this loose-bail play, carried through to-completion, own by the fact that urgh scored twice by securing the spherold . when her opponents fumbled the pass- es.
