Football

None but an exceptionally feeble technician would pick as a championship eleven the Harvard team, coached by Arnold Horween, which wavered before some men from Geneva College and bowed down to the score 16 to 7. A huge Geneva back named Fleniken did most of the damage. Fleniken and his friends were coached by Harvard's old acquaintance, "Bo" MacMillan of Centre College.

Never has one of Coach Alonzo Stagg's Chicago teams resorted to open football unless desperately pressed. Eleven maroon-sweatered rakehells amazed 40,000 spectators by drop-kicking and passing their way to victory against a fast team from the University of Florida. S. Rouse, left half, kicked the two winning goals. Score: Chicago 12, Florida 6.

On a field as soggy as a silo floor the team of the University of Nebraska, popularly known as the Cornhuskers, made ducks of Drake, 21 to 0. Iowa, with a plunging backfield, beat Colorado Teachers' College, 24 to 0.

Princeton, with a dozen lettermen back for practice, and a backfield of virtuosos, played a sloppy game against Amherst. Only heroic efforts by Prendergast and an 80-yard run by Parker made possible a 14 to 7 victory. The Amherst team went home to attend the funeral of Alfred Pimm, 1928, halfback who died of spinal injuries received in a practice game last week.

Molenda, Michigan's plowing fullback, crashed over Oklahoma's goal line twice in the first period and after that, what with the zooming passes of Benny Friedman, the smart defensive play of Ooster-baan, crossed the line almost at will. Score: Michigan 42, Oklahoma 3. Yale had a romp against Boston University. Two backs that have never been heard of before-- Goodwine and Decker--helped a good deal to amass the formidable score of 51 to 0. Paul Scull, one of the fastest backs in the East, made Pennsylanvia's fifth touchdown in the last period against Johns Hopkins, which scored only once. Georgetown, outplayed, held Pittsburgh to a 6-6 tie. Cornell found in Niagara a well-drilled team too light to score and lucky enough to hold the Ithacan applecart to 28 points.

In the South, Georgia Tech, profiting by the mistakes of its first game with Oglethorpe, beat Virginia Military Institute 13 to 0.
