Numerous Muffed unit and q weak Onence-Soldiers Score First blocked Kick and Place Kick Help Els. WEST POINT. N. “, Nov. 81 The Army mule had fed on dynamite before to-day’s football game with Yale and kicked a few stats loose In the bulldogs anatomy; but the canine barred his teeth In the second half and Yale pulled a game out VI the FIRE. The final score was 40 to 9 in Yale’s favor. Al the end Of the first half the Army led. q to o. Yale scoring all Of her ten points In the second half a touchdown and accompanying goal and a goal from the field. II was a close squeeze for the redoubtable Ellis. for they were up against a team that ON the whole and in a majority OF details played much the better Football. Quickness In seizing opportunities. not any native power, alone saved Yale from defeat. Yale rallied in the second half. fought an uphill fight with good spirit and mana ged to outplsy the soldiers; but in the first half the Blue was outplayed completely and In q map ner distressing to its supporters on the sid lines. All in all. IL was a Encouraging exhibition on Ysle’s part. At no time did the New Haven men show anything In the way Of q first dass attack: team work went begin q: the Interference was Knocked skyhigh by the neroe char ing cadets; the following OF the ball was poor. and. most conspicuous OF all. there was wretched handling OF punts in the bsckield by Tad Jones. Furthermore. Jones’s quarterback runs were nailed before they could get started.

  ARMY SCORES ON YALE But Sons Of Eli Brace Up and Win, 10 to 6. PLAY is RAGGED AND WEAK Soldiers the Stronger I’m Close Work All Along the Line, While Yale’s Defense and ORense Reelected No Credit on the Wearers OF the Blue. Teams About Equal in Puntlng. West Point, \. Y. Nov S.-Yale beat West Boint to-day, but while the final score was 10 to s, the victory did not refleet much credit on the New Haven coIegians. Their play was ragged, their defense weak. and their offensive plays sery poor. Yale and the Army were about equal IN punting, but the soldiers were always stronger in close work al. along the line. The fact that Ro5me. Yale’s full back, was compelled, through an injury. to keep out Of the game weaAened the collegiate team. but Capt Morse proved 10 be a very good substitute in hat position Several bets were made efore the game began that the Army you’d score on Yale. The cade.s held Yale all during the first half. the s-Idiers the meanwhile scoring a touchdown and a gcaL AH through the FIRST half there were frequent exchanges Of puHts. and severe gains We’re made through the line for jhe I.cal men, For the first Gf,een minutes lhe game was about even. The first score made by the soldiers was secured in the asst FIVE minutes Of the FIRST half a few seconds later gave the ball 20 Wes, roiat on Ya.e’s 45-yard line. 4 forward pass placed IL On 1ale’s 25-yard Lns. hi and Smith carried the bah through guard and tacklc 20 Yale’s l0-yard i’o. and Toonside play Yale was penalized yards ms.c. leat ing me bali % uer .1-yald -i--e Hill went Jhr ugh for touchdown Mountford kicked The goal This mad he score 10 o IN favor OF the soldiers. ard the paTtsans Of the Army cFeeref wildly. There was no further scoring in this hat Yale Wins in Second Period. When the second half began Dine took the place Of Tad JCnes, qUsrter back for Yale. while Hickman was later sub stituted for Stearns az right end on the army team. after q few minutes play I’m this half a blocked kick Of Mount ford from West Points l1-ysrG-l.ne sent the bsu back over the line. where AlcoJt sat on &C. tying Yaie’s first touchdown and when Eeeder kicked the goal the score was even. The Yale men improved IN their defensiye work during The remainder Of the game. and within about four min utes of the call Yale was lucky enough 90 score a goa! from the Ecld. which give her the victory.

  Army Gives Els Sur prise. Vanderbilt Startles Michigan By Great Defense, While Heisman’s Techs Succeed in Downing Donahue’s Auburn Squad. West Point N. T.. Nov 3-Yale 10; West Point 6. This was the score in today’s foot ball game between the New Haven collegians and the representatives of the United tSates Army. The game was lively enough but the showing made by the Ellis was disappointment to their partisans. Their line work was poor. They were weak in attack and defense. particularly in the first half. In the second they braced and made peter front. but the fumbling of punts spoiled their open play. The cadets at all times put up the stiffest kind of contest. The absence of Room at full back was a handicap to Yale. but Captain Morse filled the vacancy very cleverly. For the first fifteen minutes the con- test was about evea. exchanges of punts being frequent. The touchdown for the Army was mad> after Jones fumbled Mountford’s punt on Yale’s 45-yard line. A forward pass sent the pigskin twenty yards nearer the goal. By repeated attacks the Army got the ball to Yale’s 10yard line. where the New Haven men were penal ized five yards for sn-side playing.
