The widely heralded New York University eleven failed miserably in its first real test of the season, being held to a scoreless tie by Col gate, beaten by v. P. I. and Wabash. The Army smashed the unbeaten record of Bucknen with “a to O defeat. Brown, the biggest disappointment of the season, lost its fourth straight game to Temple, 7 to 0. Nine of last years undefeated iron men” are on the 1927 Brown team. In stopping the triumphant march of Dartmouth, Yale proved a rugged line will Offset an eleven built strictly along offensive lines with its strength in the backf1eld. The score was 10 to O.
