  TRUE form AND lJPSETS Mark GAMES ON EASTERN CRDRONS SATURDAY binations at both New Haven and Cambridge. With the regular Yale eleven facing Princeton, the New. Jersey team was almost as helpless as it was a week ago against Harvard. Although the Blue scored with an offensive attack that differed radically from that used by the Crimson, the result was the same. The Ellis. using wide open, loose ball method Of attack, found Princeton’s first and secondary de- Tense just as easy to outplay as Harlayed and hidden ball offensive tao tics. The forwards were drawn out Of place and the ends blocked off or from the point of attack with regularity, and, but for the splendid defense offered by the Tigers second line the score would have been much larger. Princeton Team Weak. Princeton failed repeatedly to sense the method and point of advancing the battle and proved unequal to the task of consistently checking Yale’s gains. This was due in part to a fail. nre to grasp the principals Of the Blues loose ball game, as we’ll as lack of the fundamentals of defense. was. in most cases, too high, and too much was required of the and ends. AS a result, Yale was able to gain ground with reason able consistency, using forward pass es. varied from time to time by short line plunges and end runs. 1t is however. If this loose ball play, with its attendant danger of los ing the spheroid can be worked with the same success against the strong and alert defense of the Harvard reg ulars. 80 While Brown secures the credit Of holding the Crimson to scoreless tie In next to the final game of the season, the unexpected result furnishes little reason for fear in the Cambridge camp. With almost all the regulars at Princeton in the role Of spectators. the task of defeating Brown was del egated to second places. That the lat ter failed was due most to over-eagerness and lack of experience than lack of football ability. Fumbles, penal ties and an absence of a real scoring punch to complete a series of ground gaining rushes were the weakness of the Crimson combination. The defensive strength was always apparent ed the Harvard goal line by straight attacking. ability. Individually and collectively there was missing from the Crimson play. however. that finish and strength which differentiates the regular from the substitute. Quakers Verv Weak. There was never any question as to the outcome of the Dartmouth-Penn sylvania contest, for the Hanoverians were superior to the Quakers in every department of play. The Red and Blue showed a fairly strong defense in the opening period, but once the Dartmouth scoring machine got under full headway the size Of the score was the only question. Both the army and navy eleven came through with victories, the ca diets defeating Maine 2S to 0. The middies triumphed over Colby 81 to 21. In both games the United States academies teams showed the fighting spirit for which they are noted. The navy came from behind in the closing periods and won. Maine had little to offer in the way Of offense against the army and once her defensive power was shattered by the cadets. From West Point standpoint the feature of the game was the remarkable play ing Of the former Purdue university star, Oliphant, who. in his first real test scored three of the army’s four touchdowns. The middies did not win so easily, for in facing Colby the championship eleven of Maine, the navy found an opponent worthy of its best brand of battle. The Maine players were physically fit and they clearly out played and out-manoeuvred the An napolis eleven for the greater part of the game, using q remarkably open and fast attack. The middies. how ever, outlasted their opponents and although eleven points behind at the close of the first half, came back so strong and persistently that Colby crumbled before the rushes Of the sailors in the closing periods and was defeated. East and West Divide. .. The east and west broke even in the intersectional contests of the day. Cornell defeating Michigan 28 to 13. and Notre Dame overthrowing the Carlisle Indians. 48 to 6. Aside from the consistent play of Maulbetsch, the Wolverines were outclassed by the powerful Ithaca eleven. The Indians, only a shadow of the famous team which have made the Carlisle govern ment school famous in other years, were helpless before the sweeping play Of the westerners and never test ed the Notre Dame defense seriously. One Of the best games Of the day was the Colgate-Syracuse contest, which resulted in no-score tie. The Orange had the advantage of weight, but this was offset by Colgate’s open and overhead play which enabled the lighter team to take the initiative most Of the time.
