Football

Stanford made 10 points speedily, then Washington made 10 defiantly, then Stanford remembered that it had not been defeated this autumn and replied with 19 more points in the last quarter.

Slagle of Princeton sat on a bench with a blanket over him. Fortnight ago he had hurt his leg against Harvard. It was Earl Baruch, sophomore halfback, who ran with the ball, who booted it through gulfs of air, who threw the pass Dan Caulkins carried to a touchdown and who kicked the goal that beat a Yale team, 10 to 7.

Notre Dame against the Army, fancy football against buck-and-duck, nine first downs to seven, 207 yards gained to 127, Chris Flanagan against All-American Harry Wilson, Knute Rockne against the pride and bulwark of the nation, Notre Dame, 7; Army, 0.

Eleven big boys from Brown scored 14 against Harvard's 0 and went home to supper. But the game was not yet over. More big boys from Brown ran out on the field at the 26-yard line and scored the third touchdown in four plays. Score: Brown, 21; Harvard, 0.

"Cowboy" Kutsch of Iowa was good coming on. Crofoot of Wisconsin was good going away. On a slippery field, web-footed Crofoot wrestled a Kutsch-as-Kutsch-can victory out of the mud. Score: Wisconsin, 20; Iowa, 10.

Autumn rain in Nebraska made duck-soup of moleskins. Kansas men were slippery as noodles. Stephens of Nebraska shied a field-goal into the pot. It was all. It was enough.

Amherst played straight and earnest football to beat Williams, 20 to 6, for the championship of the "Little Three." Strack of the Oklahoma Aggies, still the only undefeated team of the Missouri Valley Conference, did a good share of the work that beat Grinnell, 10 to 0.

By special request of the Dean of Minnesota,--so the rumor would have it--the term "Thundering Herd," recently applied to the football team of that institution, has been changed (because of its bovine implications) to "Galloping Gophers." Last Saturday the Galloping Gophers scored 81 points against a team of human males from Butler.

Ohio State's try for goal point went a few inches below the crossbar. What with this, and the activities of Benny Friedman of Michigan, 90,000 people in Columbus, Ohio, saw Michigan win, 17 to 16.

The University of Georgia and Georgia Tech have as good a hate for each other as Harvard and Princeton. First they fought over a pigskin and then they fought under the goal posts. Georgia U. won both. The football score: Georgia U., 14; Georgia Tech, 13. In many a university club Dartmouth graduates ordered ice as the reports of the third quarter were announced. They had Cornell 23 to 7. At the end of the fourth quarter, Cornell graduates filled their glasses. Score: Cornell, 24; Dartmouth, 23.
