Paasche, the husky Brown fullback. carried the ball over. Colgate rallied after the score had been made and Webster and Sanford shone In successive attacks on the Brown line without. however, at any time bocoming serious menace to the Brown goal At no time during the game, in fact, did Colgate come within striking distance, and the play for the most part was in Marion territory. Capt. Shupert was in the lmelsht during the whole of the first half, play ing strongly on both the offensive and defensive. 1t was Shupert and Adams who contributed the greater part of the gains in the long march TO victory. Both elevens relied mostly on straight football and though there were spas modic. attempts at overhead play, neither made any substantial gains by this route. Coach Huntington gave several OF his subs chance TO shine in the game, | and Townsend in particular took advantage of the opportunity, breaking away for some pretty gains in the clos ing period OF the game In the Brown backteld the work OF the backs was consistently good. with few fiimbles to mar the play. In the ! line Shurtleff was again the outstanding figure, concluding his final game OF col | lege football with brilliant record at centre. The lineup:

Early Touchdown Enables Brown to Beat Colgate, Z to 0 Upstate Team Threatens in Second Period, but Sur renders Ball on Downs PROVIDENCE, Nov. 19.-Brown won from Colgate here this afternoon,7 to 0 in a stubbornly fought game. The Brunonians scored in the first period with driving offensive which carried the ball from her 37-yard line over the goal line. Colgate was dangerous only once, in the second period, when the ball reached Browns 17-yard line, where it was sur rendered on downs. The New Workers played brilliantly in the second half, checking Brown on downs when the team had reached the 15-yard line, an intercepted forward pass shutting off a Brown score. Colgate outrushed Brown in the final quarter, but succeeded only in getting as far as Browns 30-yard line. Brown showed the clever defence it exhibited in the Harvard game at all times, al though Colgate was more successful in checking its drive at critical periods. The line-rn:
