N. F. A easily outpjaved Windham High school, Saturday afternon, on the campus and won by the tidy score of 1 After fumbling away several good jchances in the first half, théy settled 'down and seored a touchdown in each , of the two remaining quarters. After the first few minutes of piay it could be plainly seen that,the best Wind- ham could hope for was a scoreless tie and they worked hard to accomplish it for which they deserve proper credit. The big red and white line formed an impregnable barrier and Windham first {downs were as scarce as last summer's |panamas. Time after time either Mar- <hall, Sage Brown or Duke Wellington broke through and threw some unfortu- nate youth for a loss. Capt. Whitney, Reid and Boynton were consistent ground gainers, the captain conveying the oval over for both touch- 1downs. The first half went by without any alteration of the scoreboard. There ap- [peared to be an epidemic of fumbling pamonz the Norwich boys. In the third lauarter Windham held, on N. F. A's 85 |¥ard line and Whitney was forced to punt. The Windham back fumbied the {ball and an even dozen fell on or around jit 1t was found that eleven of them {didn't have it and the twelfth happened {to be Ray Reid, N. F. A's stellar half- {back. The ball was then on Windham's 35 yard line. Reid skirted the end for 17 vards, Boynton on two line plunges made 15 more. Capt. Whitney then squeezed through tenter for a touchdown. He failed to kick the goal Nothing alarming occurred during the ¢ the third quarter and the first utes of the final canto for the that Norwich fumbled just enough o keep the ball well in the center of the Touchdown No. 2 came when Da- Windham standing on his 20 yard tried to punt.

HARVARD TRIUMPHED OVER CENTRE COLLEGE ELEVEN Boston, Oct. 24.—Harvard football fi- nesse; weight and endurance triumphed over Centre college individual gridiron brilliancy here Saturday afternoon in one of the most tLriiling and Sensation- al intersectional games played in many years. Although defeated 31 to 14, the Danville, Ky., collegians departed for the south late Saturday night with the praises of the football experts ringing in their ears, for they gave a wonderful exhibition of the game considering the handicaps under which a small college eleven labers in meting a team of Har- vard calibre. In individual and semi-team play dur- ing the first half of the contest the C College combination showed gam ness. and football ability which gained them the support of thousands of spec- tators who came to witness the game without partisan sympathy or allegiance. The “Praying Colonels” as the southern players are known in their home section, matched effrot for effort with the Crim- son and at the close of the first two pe- riods had fought themselves into an even break with Harvard, the score standing 14 to 14. 3 HARVARD AND CENTRE COLLEGE PLAYERS RECEIVED PRAISE! Cambridge, ~ Mass, Oct. 24.—Ti coaches and players of both Harvard and Centre had nothing but praise for the ability and sportsmanship of their oppo- nents in Saturday’s game. Captain “Bo” McMillan, of Centre, sumn¥ing up ' the s FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL SATURDAY'S MARKET.

There was little in domestic developments to justify the mevement, most of the day’s new indicating fresh reactionary tenden- cies in industry and commerce. Sales| amounted to 200,000 shares N The bond market, including liberties and local tractions, was irregular on re- duced dealings, internationals also giv- ing an easier trend.' Total sales (par value) amounted to $6,450,000. Old S. bonds were unchanged on call for the week. A contraction of $50 233,200 In actual reserves, causing a deficit of almost $24, 00.000, the largest of the year, was the feature of the clearing suspension of op- erations Technically the stock market is said to rest on a sounder foundation than at any time since the latest wave of defla- tion got under way. This is attributed to the belief that stocks are mostly in strong hands, with substantial reduction brokers' loans. Opinions vary as to the course of the money market for the balance of the year. Much depends, it is said on the irend of gemeral trade. whose require- ments, however, probably will be subor- dinated to the needs of the transporta- tion systems.

Captain Hor- ween is a good player and a clean play- er and his generalship was splendid.” The opinion was freely cxpressed by Coach Fisher of arvard and his assist- ants and by his predecsscor/ I Haughton founder of tha coachi tem at Harvard, that Centre's off:nsive was one of the most powerful that aver has been put forward in the Stadium. After Coach Moran. of Centre, had congratulated Fisher, he uttered a word of praise for his “own boys” and said, “I cetrainly am proud of them.” “You have reason to be,” replied Fish- er. “Do not forget for a minute that vou had me worried considerably at ope stage of the game.” When the coaches separated Moran, 1 in a formal statement, said: “It may be possible, but it does no® seem probable that Harvard will suffer defeat this vear. The officials declared the game one of the most sportsmanlike in which they ever officiated. Commnsenting upon the tyles of play of the teams, Referee R. W. Maxwell, of Swarthmore, said tha: Centre's offensive appeared to be slight- Iy better developed than that of Har- vard. YALE MOWED WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY DOWN TO DEFEAT New Haven - Oct. 24—The much her- alded Mountaineers from the Universi of West Virginia failed to live up to the advance notices Saturday afternoon and a regenerated Yale eleven placed on the field by Coach Tad Jones &xperienced lit- tle difficulty in mowing the husky Dixie team down to defeat 24-0. The Mountaineers’ ponderous 193- pound line proved no barrier to the| plunging Eii backs and when the Blue tired of battering the southerners’ de- fense line the attack was varied by a forward ~passing game. The visitors might be summed up as a team of un- usual zht but lacking in speed and football brains all it gained by its brawn. The contest, Which was witnessed by approximately 30,000 persons, was mar- red by an unfortunate injury to Carl Becis, the best performer of the West Virginia eleven. An accidental kick in the head administered by Halfback Campbell of Yale put the big Mountain- eer star out of action in the opening 'pe- riod. 1t stated after the game that a kick cdused a slight concussion of the brain and that Beck will be on the in- valid list for some time. Dickens, the Eli tackle and Quarter- back Thorne Murphy, also left the game later because of injuries but their hurts are not serious. Throughout the four periods of play of the Blue team was a revelation over their performance of a week ago against Boston College. There was speed cunning and good field gen- in the attack of the Bulldog on Saturday while the defensive play was a treat to followers of the team. The Yale secondary Gefense Was exceptionally meritorious. FOOTBALL RESULTS. Likerty 1 by Swensenm 6. Harvand 31 Centre 14 Prineeton -1, Navy €, Yale 24, est Virginia & Syracuse 10, Darimouth 0. .

With the season well under way, taree undefeated teams now are tied for tae lead.

The standings place the other teams in the following order: Wisconsin, Nortk:- western, Indiana, lowa, Michigan, Min- nesota and Purdue. Thé Chicago-Ohio State contest next Saturday, the first in history betwe-n thees teams is expected to clear up the football atmosphere somewhat. Mine- sota plays Illinois at Urbana with psychological advantage of never having lost a game on the Illinois field. Norti- western_and Indiana meet in a game of Little Conference importance. while Mi- chigan and Purdue take on outsiders. The Boilermakers play Wabash and Michiga has an intersectional game at Ann Ar- bor with Tulane University of New Or- leans. ASHLAND BOWS TO ROCK'S ALL STARS OF PROVIDENCE Before the largest crowd that ever as- sembled at Ashland Park, Roy Rock's All Stars triumphed over Ashland by 4 score of 8-2. The game started off full of pep and gave promise of being a real battie. Nei- ther team scored until the fourth., Ash- land drawing first blood when Nichols tripled to center, scoring on Frechette's out at first. In the fifth Ashland scored another when Leclaire tripled coming in on a finely executed squeeze play with Me- Beth at the bat. Chet Nichols was pitching wonderful ball and the All Stars conld do nothing with his delivery. He } # fanned seven men up to the sixth aul had allowed but one hit in that tim:. He suddenly went bad and the visitors pounded his of- fe to all corners of the lot. piling up eight runs before he was yanked in favor of Liberty. This was Spike's first appearance on the mound since he injured his arm Sept. 5th and he certainfy showed that he is fit once more. He held the visiting siug- gers at his mercy allowing but one hit and no runs after relieving Nichols. Ashland scored one more run in the seventh but Swenson was going good and Ashland never had a chance to win after the disastroussixth. Both clubs plaved a snappy game and deserve a lot of credit as there was a Stff brecze blowing and at times the dust delayed the game. Comette, the third sacker that was to play for Ashland failed to put in an ap- peatance and Dubois was sent to third The kid did pretty well considering the fact that he was out of position and also that it was his first appearance in the Ashland lineup. This was the final game of the season. The score: Rey Rock's All Stars. ab tipe a o e Suérin.cf 2 Torsythe,ss 0 [uBais.5b #fenjamin ot 2l Totais ) 00 o E 01 Fali, Three base hits, Leolai: Guerin.
