  HARvARD’s FOOTBALL TEAM. 1t Shows Good Effects of Practice by Defeating Amherst 30 to o. CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Oct. 1S.-The Harvard varsity eleven played in encouraging form this afternoon, defeating AM herst 3S to 0. The home team showed plainly the good effects of the practice Of the last few days in fast, snappy, offensive work and stronger interference. Harvard had the game all her own way; but in the first half narrowly escaped being scored against through a blocked kick by Am herst. The latter got the ball only thirty yards from Harvard’s goal, and with all the energy it was capable of forced back the crimson line directly under it’s goal to it’s five-yard line. There Amherst lost the ball on downs and it was punted out of danger. Harvard’s offensive play, especial ly in the second half, was fast and precise Its defensive was strong except at center where Burden played substitute for Doucett. The great work Of the day was done by Dibble, who made several sensational runs. one of fifty-five yards.
