PRINCETON ROMPED AWAY WITH BUCKNELL, BUT YALE GIVEN GREAT SCARE BY COLGATE ELEVEN SATURDAY

Princeton 42, Bucknell 0.

Brown 42, Vermont 0.

Yale 7, Colgate 3.

The future opponents of the University football team all won their games last Saturday. Princeton and Brown faced easy opponents and won by large scores, but Yale was hard pressed to defeat Colgate.

Bucknell Easy for Tigers.

Bucknell proved no match for Princeton, which won by the score of 42 to 0. In fact, it was due to Princeton's carelessness rather than to Bucknell's strength that the score was not larger. Princeton scored six touchdowns and kicked all the goals and pressed its opponents throughout the entire game.

Moore, Tibbott, Driggs and Eddy were the men who contributed most to Bucknell's defeat. Moore in particular played a spectacular game, scoring two touchdowns on end runs of 50 and 65 yards respectively. The other three men were all steady gainers and found little difficulty in penetrating the Bucknell line. Princeton's line was none too strong, however, and the opposing backs frequently found large holes in it and had to be stopped by the secondary defence.

Princeton's first touchdown came in the first period as the result of a march of 65 yards down the field, sweeping away all Bucknell opposition. Later on Hopler of Bucknell recovered a fumble on his two-yard mark, and ran the length of the field for a touchdown, but was called back because the ball had been fumbled after it had been declared dead. This took the heart out of the Lewisburg team and the rest of the game was easy for Princeton.

The Bucknell team is the same one Cornell defeated 19 to 0 two weeks ago. Princeton's showing against it is therefore very encouraging to the Tiger supporters because it indicates a distinct change of form since the game with Dartmouth the week before. The backfield combination is both smooth and powerful, and while the line needs to be strengthened, Princeton is confident of making a good showing against the University this week.

Brown Game Listless.

Brown continued its unbroken string of victories by defeating Vermont 42 to 0 in a slow, listless game Saturday afternoon. In the six games the Providence eleven has played it has been scored on but once, this being a field goal by Rutgers, and has itself scored 210 points against all its opponents. None of these were particularly strong, but the large scores piled up by Brown show that the Providence team is distinctly above the average this year.

The Vermont eleven was weak on the defense and showed a tendency to fumble, which fact lost them one of their two chances to score. Aided by off-side and holding penalties, of which many were charged up against Brown, the Vermont team carried the ball from their 22-yard line to Brown's 35-yard line, but here the Providence team recovered a fumble and Vermont's spurt was futile.

Brown scored two touchdowns in the first period, the first coming after a steady march down the field and the second on a long forward pass. The next score was made by Murphy, the Brown quarterback, who caught a punt and ran 85 yards, helped by splendid interference, for a touchdown. After that, Brown had an easy time and would have scored oftener had it not been for penalties and the fact that with the ball on Vermont's five-yard line, the game was called.

Colgate Outplayed Yale.

Yale was extremely lucky in defeating Colgate 7 to 3 in a game in which the Eli eleven was completely outplayed. Early in the game, West of Colgate put a goal from placement over the bar, and the Maroon team held this slight lead until the last quarter, when Legore caught a forward pass and crossed the goal line for the touchdown that won the game. This lone score came after the Colgate halfback, Hubbell, had been so hurried in his punting that he had been unable to kick the ball accurately, and it went outside on his 20-yard line. Yale gained ten yards, and when Colgate was penalized for being off-side, the ball was on the five-yard line. Colgate held for three downs, but on the fourth Neville sent a pretty pass to Legore who crossed the line. Comerford kicked the goal.

Colgate made 18 first downs during the game to Yale's 11, and successfully accomplished eight out of 16 forward passes, but most of the advantage gained by this great offensive strength was lost because of penalties. The Hamilton eleven was penalized for a total of 95 yards. Yale's defence on its own goal line was a very different thing from its defence in the middle of the field and at the very beginning of the game the Blue team held its opponents for four downs in the shadow of the goal posts.

Yale made three attempts to score goals from the field, but none of these succeeded. Legore tried the first of these from the 35-yard line, and Braden tried the other two. Braden's attempts just missed being successful, one hitting an upright and the other the cross-bar of the goal posts.

It was evident that when it had the opportunity the Yale team could bring about a score, but it did not seem to have the necessary fight and dash when there were no immediate prospects of a tally. On the whole, however, its offensive power was greater than its defensive showing, and much improvement will be needed in the work of the line before the coming games with Princeton and the University.
