N. Y. U.-6 Colgele-7 Fight? And how. When a team comes to New York with the sole purpose of walloping the living daylights out of N. Y. U., they've got a job on their hands. That's exactly what Colgate wanted to do. A smashing victory would clinch their claim to the Eastern title. The game had hardly started when Macaluso and Orsi, with rushes and a forward pass, crossed the N. Y. U. line for a touchdown. The Maroon horde was full of fight and the Violets, apparently in awe of Colgate's reputation, had all it could do to hold them in that first quarter. When, in the second period, Macaluso was stopped dead twice in succession, Chick's men began to perk up. By the third quarter Colgate was tiring and the Violet machine seemed to be saying to itself, Who is this guy Macaluso ? The last period found N. Y. U. almost as good as new. They were outplaying Colgate, then a pass by Tanguay, and a touchdown by La Mark put the Violets again in the running. The Violet rooters went mad. But Orsi, the Colgate tackle, blocked the kick for the point-and the season was over. I 179

A . ., W, , I .5 - s . hz .. ..A N. Y. U.-33 Rulgers-0 What should have been one of the hardest games on the schedule, if last year's showing had been a good indication, was merely a push-over for N. Y. U. Grossman, fpardon--Rutgersj could do nothing with the powerful offense of the Violet forces. McNamara, Joe La Mark, McDonald, and Tanguay took turns running hither and thither with the ball or throwing it back and forth to each other. They tried 31 passes and completed 19, for a total of 362 yards. Their rushes added 200 more. No individual stood out among the New Yorkers, though Grossman outshone the rest of the Scarlet team. Probably the queerest feature of the game was the total of 184 yards for penalties against N. Y. U. and 50 yards lost for the Scarlet. As one writer puts it rushing yardage . . . Umpires and Referees-254 yardsg N. Y. U. and Rutgers-217 yards net. 178
