HARVARD IS DOWNED
Pennsylvania Eleven Breaks
Long.String of Defeats,
SCORE, ELEVEN TO NOTHING
Quakers Completely Outplay Their
Opponents Game Is Unusually
Rough, Slugging Being Fre-'
quent on Both Sides.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct 29. The Har
vard football eleven was not only de
feated and prevented from scoring on Sol
diers' Field today, but was completely
outplayed In every department of the
Same by the University of Pennsylvania.
Score: Pennsylvania, 11: Harvard, 0.
Only three times throughout the game
was the Harvard eleven within striking
distance of Pennsylvania's goal. On two
of these occasions she fumbled the ball
On the third, she was held for downs
when only 12 yards from the Pennsylvania
BoaL
The game was a spectacular one
throughout. The Pennsylvania play was
extremely versatile, punting, delayed
passes, quarterback runs, fake kicks and
plunges through the line rapidly following
one another.
Stephens, PlekarskI and Greene were the
i? tars for the Quakers, Stephens especial
ly distinguishing himself for the manner
In which he rushed his team and his fleet
siess of foot.
Harvard was not without brilliant play
ers, for Starr, who went into the game In
the second half, drove his men with an
energy that seriously threatened the
Pennsylvania goal-line. Brill also played
en excellent game at left tackle.
Crowd Is Very Enthusiastic.
Twenty-five hundred followers of Penn
sylvania occupied the east side of the
stadium, and the scene in that section
when Pennsylvania scored was spectacu
lar indeed. The crowd arose en masse and
with waving of flags, sang "The Red and
the Blue," and when the game ended the
students Jumped Into the field and in the
wildest enthusiasm carried to their dressing-rooms
the team which had broken the
long string of defeats which Pennsylva
nia had sustained at the hands of
Harvard.
During the first half, the ball was
never on Pennsylvania's territory, and
Harvard was compelled to play a defen
sive game almost conotlnually. In the
second half, with the advent of Starr into
the game, things changed, and It was
then that Pennsylvania showed the
strength of her defensive as well as of
fensive work.
The game was unusually rough, slug
ging being frequent on both sides, and for
this offense two Pennsylvania players
were ruled off the field by Referee Ed
wards. Harvard and Pennsylvania were
both penalized for offside play and holding
In the line.
Harvard made many substitutions In the
second half, and the substitutes played
a faster game than did the regulars.
Pennsylvania also sent In a number of
substitutes, but not until the outcome of
the game was practically a certainty.
Pennsylvania rushed 66 times for 19S
yards, kicked 13 times for 463 yards and
had 20 first downs. Harvard rushed 77
times for 17S yards, kicked ten times for
232 yards and had IS first downs.
PRINCETON IS VICTORIOUS.
Cornell Loses by Eighteen to Six, Her
Ends Being Ineffective.
ITHACA. N. Y.t Oct. 29. Princeton won
today's football game from Cornell, 18 to
6. The victors were forced to work their
hardest to make gains, but they were
outclassed by Cornell in many stages of
the game, especially in the first part of
the contest. The Cornell men showed
ability to advance the ball consistently,
and Birmingham did well in the punting,
nearly always sending the ball more than
40 yards and losing nothing In exchanges
with Tooker. But the failure of the Cor
nell ends to get down under these kicks
proved disastrous, gave the Princeton
eleven nearly as much ground as they
made In scrimmages and greatly influ
enced the outcome of the contest.
On several occasions the ends failed to
get beyond the line of play before the
man who fielded the punt had started
back with the ball and most of the tack
ling in open field was done by other mem
bers of the team. Captain Lynah did
splendid work In this line, and also was
a mainstay to secondary defense before
he was compelled to retire in the second
half.
The Cornell back field, composed of Hal-
llday as fullback and Rice and Binning'
ham as halves, played as one man, and
gained every time they struck Princeton's
defense line. The Princeton ends. Craw
ford and Tooker, were rather weak on the
defensive and many runs were made
around each of them, but they got down
under punts well and with hardly an ex
ception were on the man as soon as he
had the ball. This made Tooker's punts
more effective than Birmingham s.
Ritter and Captain Foulke at halves
and Miller at fullback did good work In
advancing the ball for Princeton. Ritter,
in particular, was able to skirt the Cor.
hell ends for long gains.
COLUMBIA 18 OUTCLASSED.
Yale Leads From the Start, and Game
Ends With Score of 34 to 0.
NEW YORK. Oct. 29. Outclassed In
every department of the game. Colum
bian football eleven was defeated by
Yale at American League Park today
34 to o. in their nve contests, this was
Yale s most decisive victors. It was
Yale's day from the start and after the
first half it became merely a question
of the score, not of the result. In the
first half Columbia held Yale to 12 to
0, and showed at intervals good foot
ball form. In the second period, the
game was a rout for the local eleven.
Yale's players jamming their way
through the whole Columbia eleven for
big gains.
Columbia's reverses In the second
half was due largely to her lack of
substitutes. When the first 'varsity
men were retired, Columbia was com
pelled to put In substitutes who showed
poorly in the effort to stem Yale's at
tacK. Columbia's best work was shown
at the start of the game when Metezn
thin caught Roraback's klckoff. and.
eluding nine of the Yale eleven, rushed
70 yards down the field before Hoyt
caught him and prevented Columbia's
quarterback from scoring a touchdown
that for a moment looked certain.
Yale was never held on downs. Co
lumbla received many more penalties
than Yale for offside play, holding and
Interference with the ball. About 10,000
persons were present.
Captain Stangland, of Columbia, was
seriously hurt in the first few minutes
of play and was forced to leave the
game. His absence seriously crippled
Columbia.

SEATTLE. Wash.. Oct 29. (Special.)
With the score of 6 to 0 In favor of Pull
man the University of Washington cross
ed their opponents' goal twice in the last
20 minutes of play, winning the game by
12 to 6. The teams were evenly matched
and it was not until the second half that
either one was able to scor. Most of the
gains made by both elevens were around
the ends. The line of each team held
perfectly until towards the end of the
game, when the University of Washing
ton held Its yardage at will by straight
line-bucks.
Pullman's score was largely due to
costly fumbles made by the university
backs. Washington would have scored
In the first half but for the fumbling, and
when the visitors made their touchdown
It was after they had secured the ball in
Washington territory on a fumble. The
star of the game was Homer Dean, right
half for the local eleven. Time after
time he ran his end for 25 and 30 yards.
finally carrying the ball over Pullman's
goal-line, which gave Washington the
victory.
Shaw, the left-half, was prevented from
gaining ground on account of the strength
of the right side of the Washington Agri
cultural College line.

MONMOUTH. Or.. Oct 29. (Special.)

times prevented the local team from mak
ing a better showing. Both teams played
better on the offense than on the de

M. A. A. C. GoaL
Multnomah defeated the Utah Agricul
tural College In the football game yester
day afternoon by a score of 29 to 0, but in
spite of the outcome, the honors belong
to the Mormons. By sheer plunging
against Multnomah's stout line, they made
70 yards at one stretch, and were within
ten yards of scoring when they finally
found themselves hurled back in their own
tracks for three downs and lost the balL
It took three downs almost to make yard
age each time, and often the linesmen
would have to come out into the field to
decide whither they had covered the dis
tance. But Utah kept it up across 14 five
yard lines till Multnomah was In the
shadow of its own goal and fighting des
perately. The pluck of the visitors
brought cheers from a Multnomah crowd.
The game started off bo easily. There
was nothing to it at all. Multnomah
scored in about three minutes. -The ball
at the kick-off was downed on the Utah
ten-yard line, where the Mormons at
tempted a poor punt of 15 yards, Multno
mah getting the ball. The 25 yards to
Utah's goal was made In five downs. Ho
ran made three yards, Corbett made eight
Horan plunged for as many more and Cor
bett carried the ball over the line.
After the second kick-off, Utah had its
first chance with the ball, and showed It
could do something, rather to the surprise
or tne spectators, on account of the easy
victory to Washington, by making yard
age. It was thought Utah would not even
be able to do that But Multnomah got
the ball again and made another easy
touchdown.
Then it was, after the third kick-off.
that Utah took its brace and made the
long up-hill fight against Multnomah's
stubborn defense. Afterward It rallied
once or twice for a few downs, but was
constantly being overwhelmed. It was a
pity that It could not have scored. It cen-
talnly deserved to.
How was it that Multnomah was on the
go for those few minutes, when Washing
ton and Corvallls both had the Mormons
at their mercy all the time? The Mor
mons themselves explain It as an Inspira
tion. Washington threw them off their
feet from the start and kept them going
backwards. They had a little less stage
fright when they lined up against Cor
vallls, but It was also too speedy for them.
But after Multnomah had scored twice,
they found a moment to breathe, and for
ten minutes they got the winning spirit
in them, and with two overwhelming de
feats In the past week and another one
on them now, they threw themselves
against a much better team for full 70
yards, earning every inch of It
wnen Multnomah was on the go once
more, and Utah was falling back unceas
ingly, there was nothing more in the
game, and the 29 points might have well
been more. But Multnomah seems to have
no barbarous ambition to run up huge
scores, and the game was really ended be

SECOND MULTNOMAH ALSO WINS
Junior Team Plays Match With the
Portland Academy.
As a preliminary to the Multnomah-Utah
football game yesterday afternoon, the
second Multnomah and the Portland
Academy played a match, which was far
more Interesting to watch than the other
game. Multnomah won, 6 to 0. The vic
tory was theirs with due credit but the
scoring was not done till the very end of
the second half, when Captain Whittlesey,
of the Academy eleven, had been taken off
the field unconscious. However, this does
not detract from the club's victory, which
was well earned.
The Academy received the kick-off and
gained through the line for several downs,
working the ball from their 25 to their 25
yard line, where a fumble gave it to Mult
nomah. Foley, 4eft half, plunged through tackle
for four yards first clip, but tried It again,
and was thrown back by Williams.
Downs tried the other end of the line, and
was thrown back by Clark, and the Acad
emy got the ball on downs. A fumble
gave It back to Multnomah. The club
players could not make headway on the
school line, however, and were forced Into
trying a place kick, which went wide.
The Academy was saved for the time be
ing by punting out from the 25-yard line
to the center of the field. Multnomah
made a few. good gains, but was forced
to punt and Williams blocked the kick.
Clark returned the punt booting the
leather 45 yards, the longest punt of the
day.
Here was a long distance for Multnomah
to make up before it could score. But it
had to punt once more, this time making
20 yards and falling on the ball. By that
the Academy s chances of scoring were
lost and Multnomah continued to gain,
though now and then the two Academy
halves, Clark and Williams, would throw
back a runner for a loss. Downs made
12 yards around the end once. This was
after Whittlesey was taken out Austin
hurdled for eight more. He then made
yardage on a fake kick. A few line- plays.

The Academy was on the defense during
the entire second half, Multnomah gaining
steadily from the kick-off to the 20-yard
line, till Foley finally plunged over the
line. Some times yardage came easily,
five yards at a time, but it was eked out
by hard work, and when the Academy
was on Its 30-yard line. It held for two
downs. It looked as if the ball would

HARD, GRUELLING GAME.
Columbia University Has Difficult
Task in Defeating Hill Academy.
In a hard, rough game of football Co
lumbia University defeated the Hill Mili
tary Academy yesterday morning at Unl
Terslty Park by a score of 6 to 0. Hill had
rather the better of it during the first
half, but the Catholic team executed a
few center plays In the second half, which
wrested ground steadily from Hill, till the
one touchdown was made.
It was Hill's game through most of the
first half. Hill receiving the kick-off and
working down the field to the Columbia
IE-yard line, where a fumble gave Co-,
lumbia an opportunity to punt out of
danger. Hill made two or three more at
tempts to rush a touchdown, but Colum
bia was never so nearly scored upon later.
In the second half conditions were re
versed and Columbia had Hill on the go,
making center plays effectively and rush
ing for 40 yards by short but certain
gains. The longest run of the half was
only eight yards, effected by the use of a
flying wedge. The touchdown was made
by straight center plays. The line-up

CAN GANS MAKE THE WEIGHT?
Interest in His Fight With Britt Cen
ters on This Question.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 29. Interest
In the contest between Joe Gans and
Jimmy Britt, scheduled for Monday
night, centers In the' question whether
Gans can make the required weight of
133 pounds. Gans has been around the
136-pound mark for several days. By
some, it is alleged that he is' having
much trouble reducing, while , others
suggest it is a play to bring the betting
at even money.
Britt says if Gans is one ounce over
weight he will Insist on the 51500 for
felt and there will be no fight
Referee Graney has announced If
Gans is overweight and Britt Is per
suaded to go on, he will declare bets
off.
Gans asserts he has no fear of being
at weight when the time comes. For the
present betting, is practically at
standstill, though a few bets have been

MORE STATE FUNDS ARE GONE
Kansas Governor Reports Accountant
Finds Discrepancy of $31,000.
TOPEKA, Kan., Oct. 29. At noon today
the Governor gave out a long report from
State Accountant Rowett showing addi
tional shortages In the State Treasury
aggregating In all about 531,000, and cov
ering school fund transactions concern
ing Pratt, Cowley, Nemaha and other
counties. Accountant Rowett draws no
conclusions from his findings. He simply
records the fact that certain blocks of
bonds were purchased on certain dates
by the school fund commissioners and
that certain interest payments were made
on these bonds which are not accounted
on the' books of the State Treasurer.
The largest shortages are In Cowley
County. Recently Accountant Rowett
submitted a -preliminary report, in which
he disclosed an alleged shortage of $1400.
Following this State Treasurer Kelly filed
his resignation in escrow, to take effect
in case the charges against his office
were proved.
The dates given show that many of the
shortages occurred during the last admin
istration, but the present State Treasurer
Is looked upon as responsible because be
was assistant treasurer during that time;
in fact, T. T. Kelly hag handled the funds
during the entire time covered by the in
vestigation. The largest shortages are in Cowley
County, which has paid nearly $5000" into
the State Treasury which is not accounted
for; Reno County Is short nearly $1000;
Allen County has paid over $2600, and Mc
Pherson County over $2000, which Is not
accounted for.
Nurses to Form Association.
At a meeting of the trained nurses
of Portland at the Good Samari
tan Nurses' Home, it was decided
to form a nurses' association.
There were 45 present, and while the or
ganization is assured, there was not suffi
cient time to elect officers. A partial con
stitution was adopted, which will be com
pleted at the next meeting. Much enthus
iasm Is being manifested among those who
are interested in this association, and it
is thought that a great deal of good will
result from It. In addition to promoting
good fellowship among the members, the
association will have many worthy ob
jects, one of them being a pledge to do
a certain amount of work for the poor and
needy sick. All nurses holding diplomas
from reputable hospitals of two years'
course and training are eligible to mem
