I0-For the second time in succession the Uni versity of Pennsylvania and Lafayette played each other to a standstiI In their annual football game. the fnaI score today being to 0. A year ago it was to G. The Red and Blue came the nearest to getting a score. for IN the first half It once marched sixty-three yards down the field and planted the bail on Lafaycites 2-yard line. Here a great stand by Lafayette. coupled with poor judgment on the part Of Pennsylvania IN Sc lecting her attack, enabled the EastOnians TO hold for downs. Pennsylvania later had TWO more opportunities 20 score, but failed TO take advantage OF them. Shake-Up Beneficial. The shake-up IN the Penn team worked finely. Lawrence, although playing his first game on a college team. ran the eleven with great spirit as quarterback and thereby won his position. Hollenback, who was moved from center 10 fulIback. was the sensation. He ran back kicks in fine style and also carried the ball well in line plunges. Dwyer Ia center and CASTOR at tackle, the other new men. put up a good game, and the Quakars are looking forward 10 the Michigan game next Saturday With more hope than they have had this season. Lafayette had the first opportunity 20 score and some thought that the visi- tors should have been allowed a safety. IT, -4H.v4g FEH. obs OF Lafayette, punted TO Lawrence Oh Penn 3 1o-yard line. The Quaker merely touched the ball and IL rolled over the line where he got il again. The oficials ruled that the bail had not been stopped by Lawrence. and declared the play a touchback.

Yale was unable to cross the Brown line until the second half and Knox missed an easy goal. Brown started with rush. Yale’s defense was crushed, the line being unable to withstand the attack. Alcott and Forbes, Yale ends, boxed repeat edly and Brown interference swept past them for gain after gain. Brown gained on the first downs twice and once rushed the ball to Yale’s 20 yard line, only to lose 1t on a tumble of forward pass. Knox, Yale’s left half back, made during this half run of 70 yards and was down. ed. from behind by Mayhem on Browns 5 yard line. Here Yale was held for downs. May hew punted to Jones from behind the Brown line and Yale lost her chance to score. The Bile team play. ed almost entirely on the defensive during the half.
