Foot Ball

After a few minutes it became merely a question of how many points the Army would make. Once McGunigle, Yale back, got near enough to try a long shot for a field goal; it went astray, and for the rest of the game desperate Yale plungers bounced off Army linesmen, sombre-caped cadets sang "Army's Day," and an Army team, emphatically a unit, swept over Yale's goal line to pile up a score of 33 to 0.

"Coloombia! Coloombia!" The cry, springing from a myriad throats, made Cornell rooters recoil. Not since 1905 has that cry drowned the klaxons of Cornell's red applecart, but last Saturday, with Rieger's 70-yard trip to glory, and the good right toe of Captain Madden, Columbia came from behind a 9-0 lead to win, 17 to 9.

With razz-mu-tazzling plays, bucks, feints, and formations as intricate as a sorority cheer, Stanford University, particularly helped by a giant back named Hoffmann, bewildered the bisons of Southern California to win, 13 to 12.

To jump from one's seat and run out on a field to pull down goal posts is a diversion rarely indulged in without appropriate stimuli. The fact that their team, together with Hamilton and Caldwell, had defeated 10 to 0 a Michigan team that had beaten Illinois and Minnesota, was enough to stimulate the gentlemen of Annapolis.

Mally Nyrahl, sub halfback, caught a Wisconsin punt and ran 60 yards to bring the bacon home for Minnesota, 16 to 10.

With a slippery ball, on a soggy field, Northwestern took Indiana down the skids, 21 to 0.

Grim finished another fairy tale, spinning it in the air with a variety of passes for the entertainment of his Ohio State friends. Score: Ohio State. 18; Chicago. 0.

Most of Notre Dame's regulars spent the afternoon with blankets over their heads, chewing pieces of straw, while a perspiring second team worked hard to beat Georgia Tech, 12 to 0.

West Virginia's hardy mountaineers almost had their renowned leather breeches ripped off by a running Missouri team that gave them their first beating of the season, 27 to 0.

Penn took its hidden ball trick to Champaign, ILL., where the illustrious Frosty Peters proved that a strong boot is better than patent elbow pads by kicking the goal that won for Illinois in the last period, 3 to 0...

The Dartmouth stands kept wailing "We want a touchdown," a plea whose pathos was accentuated by Randall and Mishel of Brown. Randall crossed the line. Mishel kicked a field goal. Score: Brown, 10; Dartmouth, 0.

An improving Princeton team used a string of substitutes to put Swarthmore in its place, 27 to 0.

On the second play a 10-flat, 205-pound crimson-clad fullback named Miller cantered 83 yards for a touchdown. After other canters, gallops, the score was Harvard, 69; Tufts, 6.
