  CARLISLE INDIANS WIN FROM PENNSYLVANIA Quakers Played Poorly First Half and Used Bad Judgment in Second. PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 14.-In ties, the Carlisle Indians today defeated the University of Pennsylvania foot ball eleven by the score Of 16 to 6. The Indians scored a touchdown and kicked a field goal in the first half and each team scored touchdown in the sec ond half from which goals resulted. Pennsylvania probably played her poorest game of the season in the first half 1t was a repetition Of the Harward game of week ago, with the exception that the Indians were penalized for a total of SO yards Sor holding, and even with this handicap they got within striking distance of the Pennsylvania goal four times. Quarterback Johnson, of the Indians, ran his team perfectly and his variaton of plays completely mystified the Quakers. In the second half, Penn sylvania outplayed their opponents at all points, and that they did not at least tie the score was because of lack of judgment. In this half the Indians could make but little impression on the Quaker line. The latter rushed the ball down to within Is yards of the Indians goal. With only 1 yard to gain Bennett dropped back for a try for a goal from placement. He missed it by Is yards. AT the time the Quakers were gaining almost at will through the Indians line. A touchdown would have tied the score and with posi- BILE goal the Quakers would have been one point to the good. A few minutes
