CARLISLE INDIANS BEATEN.

The game between Harvard and the Indian team Saturday afternoon was the most severe test which the Harvard team has played this season. The indians hammered away at the line every time they got the ball, in many instances making their distance on the fourth rush, and hardly ever resorting to a punt. In fact it is safe to say that if they had a good punter back of their stonewall line, and could vary their centre plunging with an occasional end play, they would be second to no team in the country.

Harvard, though hard pressed, showed steadiness in tight places, and Brown's punting often sent the ball to the middle of the field, when a touch down for Carlisle seemed imminent. The feature of the game was the magnificent stand made by the Harvard line in the second half, when the Indians had the ball on the 5 yard line on the first down. For once Metoxen was unable to gain and Carlisle lost the ball on downs.

Harvard's only touchdown was due to the Indians' fumbling. It was made early in the first half, and thereafter a defensive policy was adhered to. The best work was done by Doucette, Frank Shaw, Dunlop and Moulton. For the Indians, Lone Wolf, Cayou and Metoxen played a strong game.

Harvard won the toss and chose the west goal, from which a slight wind was blowing. Carlisle started to rush the ball, but lost it almost immediately on a fumble. Brown made a fine kick outside on Carlisle's 10-yard line and the Indians started to rush the ball. Metoxen gained ten yards, and Cayou went through Mills for 35. Here Hudson fumbled badly. Doucette got the ball and passed to Dunlop, who carried it to Carlisle's three-yard line. On the next rush Dunlop carried it across the line for the only touchdown. For the rest of the half the ball stayed in the middle of the field.

In the second half the endurance of the Indians began to tell. Doucette gave way to Frank Shaw, Cochrane took Beale's place, and Cozzens took Sullivan's. The Indians, by steady rushing, gained the 5-yard line. Here the Harvard line held for three downs, and Brown punted to the middle of the field. For the rest of the game the ball was in the centre of the field.
