< NORWICH BULLETIN, - MONDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1922 CLOSE OF FOOTBALL SEASON SEES THREE BIG UPSETS IN COLLEGES New. York, Nav. 26.—(By The A. P)— ‘Phree startling reversals in form stood out today in analysis of Saturday's gridiron et¥ents, the climax of a season consplcuous for upseis in the dope. Harvard, coming back brilliantly after reverses at the hands of Brown and Princeton, out-generalled its traditional rival, Yale, to win (10 to 3, after the Bine had been cstablished generally as a favorite. Less prominent but equally sensational were the victories of Detroit University over Washington and Jefferson, 20 to 9, and Dartmouth over brown, 7 to 0. W. and J., regarded as onc of the strongest elevens in the east, out-played Detroit in aearly every department, only to lose as the alert westerners profited by intercept- ed forward passes and fumbles. Dart- mouth, fighting to atone for setbacks from Vermont, Cornell and Harvard, al- 30 was aided by a fumble after battling to a standstill the conquerers. of the Crimson. The other outstrading games in the east came close to increasing the list of upsets. Army, -he favorite, struggled desperately in the last quarter to snatch vietory from the Navy, 17 to ' 11, -on Wranklin Field, Philadelphia, while Lafayette, beaten but once since the fail of 1920, met unexpected opposition from ! its traditional rival, Lehigh, and won by a slim margin of a field goal, kicked % by “Bots” Brunner in the last few min- | utes of play. . Harvard, as had been expected was oofrG#hed b Yale almost two to one. “fhe-Blue also uncovered the . cleverest _serial attack of its history but when "m‘x&mg reach of the Crimson goal, the Bulldog's punch failed. Once, in the first period, Harvard checked Yale's rush “withitn five_yards of its goal. “On the other” hand, Harvard display- ing Princeton’s characteristics, seized its i dpportunities, Halfback Owen rising to heights in the first period by scooping up a Yale punt and racmg 47 yards to Eli's 3 yard line, from where a few min- utes later, he drove over a touchdown. Field goals by ©'Hearn, for Yale in the tecond quarter, and Pfaffman for Har- vard in the final period, completed’ the scoring. Army's victory over Navy came after + slashing see-saw encounter in which Jeorge Smythe, cadet quarterback furn- ®hed the outstanding achievement with v 50-yard run in the final quarter that saved the way for the winning touch- jown. Navy, which out-rushed the Army more than ° 4o 1. took the lead-in the second quarter but the Cadete spurted to the front in the third quarter and came back again in the final period.to win after the Navy had again forged ahead. Bucknell, scoring all its points in the first quarter was victorious over Rutgers, 25 to 13 ; Georgetown and Boston College battled to a scoreless tie; while Notre Dame triumphed over Carnegie Tech, 19 to 0, in a hard fought inter-sectional ¥or most of the eastern teams yester- day’s game, ended the season, although several big games remain to be played on Thanksgiving day, including Cornell- Penn, at Philadelphia; Pittsburgh-Penn State at Pittsburgh, and West Virginia- ‘W. and J. at Morgaritown, W.

Annap- olis football team, defeated in the annual classic with West Point, boarded 'a special train this after- noon and started for the naval acad- To Take American Baseball emy. With it went most of what was left of the.football color which has brighténed the streets of Philadelphia for_the last few days. The Army ‘squad departed for West Point Saturday night. as had the non- playing cadets. The battalion of mid- shipmen who. watched the game fol- lowed their team home this afternoon. Worn and © weavy from enforced participation in proceedings which he understcod not -t all, one of the glad- dest to board the navy return special, was Bill Capricornus, the Navy goat. Bill had a special compartment in the baggage section. While the Army was victorious, it had not got Bill, though it did obtain Bill's navy blue blan- ket, neatly embroidered with three gold stars, commemorating previous consecutive victories for the team which he mascots. Bill was cold and proclaimed it - While no official decision was an- nounced, both the. Army and Navy were declared to be in favor of re- turning_to Franklin field for next year's contest. The Navy favors this despite the “Franklin field jinx” for the only: two zames the team lost this season were ‘played there, first to the University of Pennsylvania and’ again on Saturday. g YALE NEWS COMMENTS -~ ON YALE'S DEFEAT New Haven, Nov.. 26—The Yale News, in, discussing the defeat Sat- urday, will say tomorrow in part: “To Harvard, on her team, Yale extends fully merited compliments and con- gratulations.” In- commenting on the attitude of graduates and under-graduates to- ward the defeat, the News continues: Criticism which emanates from the resultant highly strung sources 3s to all interests .and purposes destructive. This type of criticism is distinctly injurfous and’ can have no place in today’s problems. It is the psychology resultin® fiom such criticism, and from the spirit which gives rise toit, which is in part responsible for Yale's continued defeats. "What is needed now and throughout the next year from every Yale man is confident, un- qualified, and constructive support of the football powers that be.” JAIL HILLS AND WESTERLY PLAY TO A 5 TO 6 TiE The Jail Hill eleven and the Ital- lan-American eléyen of Westerly bat- tled to a6 to: & tie-at. Westerly on Sunday afternoon.. The. local boys fought a hard game but were stop- lped by the ' heavier Westerly line. Westerly played a hard game but in the play Held the score down. Williams' played a good de- fersive game and Norwich's only score came through' his great interference while Valentine after intercepting a forward pass ran for a touchdown. TWO UPSETS IN SOUTHERN FOOTBALL Atlanta, Ge., Nov. 26—(By the A. )—Indiyidual brilliancy marked Sat- urday’s football games and the day’s play marked Georgia's first defeat by Alabama ‘since 1319 and saw an un- usual situation develop in “South Ca- rolina where Furman downed Clemson, 20 .to.8. It .was, not only the first time this season a South Carolina el- even had ‘érossed Clemson’s goal line but ‘it came after Clemson had de- feated .South Carolina and the latter had bested Furman. g TODAY’S SPORTS RACING Meeting ‘of Southern Maryland Agricultural Association; at Bowie. 03 ATHI.E’T!CS Intercollegiate cross-eountry championship, at New York.

Soccer- team won the second -game of the Bulletin Cup com- petition- from Taftville on the Prov- idence - streed - grounds - on - Saturday afternoon by a score of 5 to 0. The game was played in a, bitter wind and the crowd was small. The Taftville team was .handicapped by the loss of four men on the right wing and sub- stitutes were rushed in at the .last minute. The Westerly team put up a pretty game with some very clever passing and team work: The defense of .the Taftville team was .weak and the play during the greater part of the time .was in the Taftville terri- tory.. Taftville thréatemed -only twice during the game and then their shots went wide of the posts. This, evens up the series, Taftville :mvli‘l‘zg won' the finst game by de- aul 8 season won, Harvard under-graduates j residence rule designed to prevent the today gathered in. scattered- m-\a»mnu on teams of athletds ATHLETIC COMMITTEE DECLINES New Haven, Nov. 26—VYale was re- covering today from the shock of Sat- urday’'s smashing defeat and was busy reinforcing its courage for next sea- son with the slogan, “Wait until next year”. Probably the most common question on the lips of graduates and under-graduates was, “Tad Jones, will he be with the team again 7" J. T. Blossom, graduate manager of athleties, in part answered that ques- tion tonight. “There has been a cer- tain amount of talk. among graduates about Jones' work,” he said, “but the matter has not been discussed in the least by the board of athletic con- trol. ‘Mr. Jones hak -a contract that calls for two more years of service We feel that progress has been made -under his leadership and we have con- siderable confidence in him. The board " has its next meeting early in Decem- ber,” but whether the question will come up or not, I don’t know.” No injuries of any moment were re- ported among the players. The team will probably have its dinner early next week, when next &eason’s cap- tain will be elected. No date has been set, but it is expected that the din- ner will be held either December 4 or 5. IOWA AND MICHIGAN TIED IN WESTERN CONFERENCE Chicago, Nov. 26—(By the A. P)— lowa and Michigan were left the out- standing claimants of the football ti- tle in the western conference by the closing games of the -season yester- day in which Chicago, the only other contender, was held to a scoreless tie by Wisconsin. Iowa ended her season with a 37 to 3 victory over Northwestern - while Michigan was defeating Minnesota, 16 t In the other games of the day, Indiana and Purdue tied for last place by playing each other to a seven to seven tie, and Ohio defeated Illinois 6 to 3. The question as to whether Chica- go will be allowed to share the ti- tle with- Towa and Michigan is one that probably will.not be decided un- til conference authorities meet. Some observers argue that since Chicago did not lose a game, the: Ma- roons still have-a 1,000 per cent. av- erage in spite of yesterday's tie game while others say that by being held scoreless by Wisconsin, a twice de- feated team, Chicago failed to show the strength displayed by Michigan and thereby was eliminated. NEW: ENGLAND ATHLETIC CONFERENCE ORGANIZED Boston, Nov. 26—A New England state college conference, patterned af- ter the Western conference, and de- signed to formulate uniform eligibility rules in iintércollegiate athletics, was organized at a meeting of represen- tatives of New England state colleges and. universities here today. An eligibility code barring parti- cipation of freshment on competing teams, and establishing a one year transferred from other colleges, was adopted. The meeting today was the -result of an invitation issued .recently by the New Hampshire State college and representatives were present from the sponsoring college, University - of Maine, University of Vermont, State college of Rhode ' Island, Connecticut Agricultural - college and the Massa- chusetts . Agricultural = college. The conference will have jurisdiction over all intercollegiate sports among.mem- ber colleges, it- was asserted. - YALE TO SEND TWO represented by two teams tomorrow when the intercollegiate cross-coun- try championship is settled at Van Cortlandt Park, seven men will be on the varsity and seven on the fresh- man team. Mal Douglas, the Yale star who. has been out of condition for some time, will run. The ‘teams left New-Haven this afternoon with Coach Queal and a staff of trainers. The va#sity runners will be: -E. C. Vanderpyl, Mal Douglas, M. Tread- well, A. C. Freelander, T. H. Tracy, G. W. Hittelsey, .and ‘E. G. Willmont. The freshman runners will be: G. T. Seovil, H. Deming, R. L. Riggs, F. ‘W. Wood, C. 8.

HARDIGS DEFEATED" BY FAST GREENEVILLE TIGERS With all the odds against them the Tigers fought their way to victory Sunday afternoon at the Fairgrounds by a score of 18 to 0 over the Hardigs. From the kick-off to the finish of”the game the Greeneville boys kept the Hardigs in check and ‘were never in danger. Seed kicked off and the so- called Hardigs which consisted:-of mostly Judeans fumbled the ball which was recovered by Breen of the Tigers. The Tigers failed to make the goal and so did the Hardigs fail to make their ten yards. The time was called for the first quarter which was cut short. In the second quarter -the ball was in the Tiger's possession. Af- ter a few line plunges Gorton took the ball over for the first, score..The Hardigs received the kick-off which was another pretty kick and the run- ner was downed in his tracks. After a few plays were completed the time was called for-the first half. = Again the Hardigs received and were downed in their tracks. The Hardigs made a few first downs and then the Greeneville boys took possession ‘of thé ball again and after completing a few center plunges Swanton got away for 39 yards and another touchdown: THe Hardigs received again and failed“to make first down. This-discouraged the West Side boys iso that the Greene- ville boys broke through at -will for fifteen yards at a clip: Gorton 'again gained about 20 yards ten of which he| ran backwards for the last touch- down. z The Tigers played a wonderful game their heavier opponents, Hyatt, Vol- lowitz and Blinderman hit the dust many times before they got started. These men are Supposeéd. to be starh of the Judean eleven. If the Hardigs ‘want another game they will have to play in Greeneville. The. lineup for the victorious Tigers was® as follows: Blackstone, center; Malloney - and Krucks, guards: Breen and Seed, tac- kles; Stearns and Nelson, ends; ‘Hig- gins, quarterback; Gorton, fullback; Tennant and Swanson, halfbacke. < The Tigers will play Jail Hill Thanksgiving Day. INTERCOLLEGIATE- HARRIERS IN BIG. MEET TODAY New York, Nov. 26—One of the greatest eross-country battles in re- cent years is expected tomorrow after- noon over the six mile Van Cortlandt Park course when 18 leading eastern colleges race -for the annual inter- collegiate championship. . The varsity event will be preceded by a three mile freshman race in which 13-col- leges are entered. 2 Team competition will be unusually keen with no squad predominating the field such as Cornell did a year age when the Ithacans made a -runaway affair of the varsity race. Moakley's harriers, victors in 17 of the 22 races held since ‘1899, have lost all of last year’s scorers and enter tomorrow's events with a green but promesing team. Columbia, victor over Cornell, Pean and Dartmouth in a recent race here, and Princeton’s unbeaten team, loom as favorites, but Penn, Cornell, M. L T., and Carnegie Tech.are expected to furnish strong opposition. ‘Walter Higgins, Columbia star, whe led his team to triumph in the quad- rangular race will figire prominently in the fight for individual honors. Chief among his rivals are Harold E. Dykeman of Carnegie Tech, who de- feated Higgins in capturing the Syra- cuse invitation run; Bob Hendris,. M. T.'T. captai inner of the New Eng- land intercollegiates a week ago; and E. C. Mclane, Pennsylvania sopho- more, who won the freshman race a year ago and finished close behind Higgins in .the quadrangular meet. Captain Young of ‘Dartmouth; Cap- tain Conger -and Gordon of " Prince- ton; Smith and Gordon of Syracuse, and Captain E. B. Kirby of Cornell are other front rank figures in the title struggie. Mal Douglas, Yale star probably will not be in conditien to start, while Kirby, due to an early season injury, also may be kept out.
