FOOTBALL GAME
Harvard Defeats Michigan in
Game Almost Devoid of
Spectacular Play.
(By Associated Press.)
CAMBRIDGE. Mass., Oct. 31.-Har
vard defeated Michigan 7 to 0 here to
day in a football game almost devoid
of spectacular play and confined to
conservativo attack and defense.
iTwunty-flvo thcniBnnd spectators wit
nessed CO minutes ot - hard fought
scrimmage in which straight football
predominated throughout. The gener
al advance was achieved by a scries
of Une plunges and an occasional end
run.
Harvard showed to better advantage
than the westerners, displaying
stronger defence and striking with
savage rapidity and skill In the second
period when tho solitary score of the
game was made. .
Michigan attempted. only one for
j ward pass and this Was intercepted,
j As if further to upset the ante-game
j forecasts, tho Crimson used four, ot
which three were successfully car
ried through.
j ' Michigan used ? rushing line of at
tack. The campaign - worked well be
tween the 20-yard lines but lt lacked
tho scoring punch once the team had
; carried the ball within the shadow ot
the Crimson goal: - Harvard; - twice
hold Michigan on dr Inside her five
yard line.
Harvard forced a touchdown * and
the resultant goal in the second per
iod. Obtaining the hall at mid-field on
a Michigan punt, Harvard, opened the
scoring advance with a series'pf Une
plunges and end runs,' piercing the
Wolverines' line-for consistent galas.
On Michigan's 35-yard line'the Wes
tern eleven held for two downs.- Tem
porarily checked, Quarterback Logan
bailed for a forward.baas, which, per
fectly executed, "put the ball on the
visitor's 19-yard line: Again Harvard
went to linc bucking and by clever
ly mixing covered and delayed passes
made the scoring of the touchdown
and goal comparatively easy..
K: With a seven point advantage the
Harvard team played a defensive game
during a majority of tho' remaining
periods: ..
It-was in tba finer, points of team
play that Michigan lost; for, player
for player, the Ann Arbor eleven was
fully equal physically to the Cam
bridge combination. , Collectively,
however, they failed to move with the
same cohesion and smoothness. -
Statistical figures .show that while
Michigan made ten first downs- to
?Harvard's eight, the Crimson gained
188 yards. by' rushing to- the Wolver
ines' 164. Harvard' gained 24, yardj
with four forward passes, while Mich
igan's single attempt caused a' loss
of the ball. In penalties th Ana Ar
bor team lost 80 yards to Harvard's
20. The, victors also' punted th o b al l
430 yards to the losers', 3.65 yards and
ran tho ball back to punis 20 yards
to five. . I

A LAST APPEAL
TO THE VOTERS
To the Ed'tor of The Intelligencer
Please allow me space in which to
call the attention of the public to this
last appeal BO necessary for the gen
eral election: I have some cause, while
Dr. Walker's first appeal of two weeks
ago has been endorsed, to make an
other and last appeal for the time so
nearest the election as to create good
interest in the hearts of South Caro
lina
It is of importance now that the vot
ors of South Carolina are again asked
to support at the general election on
Tuesday, November 3rd, the two
amendments so proposed to the state
constitution, in a Joint resolution by
the General Assembly at Gae mst meet
ing, that Ute Cedar Spring school for
the. Deaf, located at Cedar Spring,
S. C., be in one amendment removed
from the class of penal and charitable
institutions, and.- then la the other
amendment be classified with Gie ed
ucational state-supported institutions.
? The joint resolution for -the class!
flcation originated with Representa
tive Jesse W. Boyd, of Spartanb?rg,
S. C., on his own initiative, and backed
up by Br. Walker's suggestion. The
resolution was passed at the* general
assembly, and the Committee, on Ju
dietary,.to.whom it was referred, pass
ed that resolution, to Submit to the
voters for ratification at the general
election. ? ? -
I : lil has been seen fit to emphasize the
public.upon-Gie proper constitutional
classification by Gio following facts:
r (1) : The education ot Gie deaf in I
Ute: state on such a high, 8Ca,e wtth
tun oiner best ?tate scno?tB, ana the
overshadowing of Gie old idea of char
ity. . .. .
h (2) The school already supported
aa: are the. other state institutions so
classified, by Gie public tax.,
?8) The possible advent bf one of
Gie great issues of education, now in
view,-the .state school ..compulsory
education or attendance law that
would apply to the deaf as well for
such a school properly classified as
educational,
<rt ( 4 ) The state association j already
Gie step to the improvement for fur
ther welfare. Other benefits in view
too many to nuke ont hare^as the
publie mlsht know whatever the ben
efits are for the deaf. So ure the wise
voters requested to explain the mean
ing of the vote to tho Ignorant
. Remember .to the point bow to vote I
right on the two amendments, very
necessary to each other. Cast two sep
arate I ballots with the explanaUon J
given thereon for each of the two |
Remember to the point how to vote
right on tho two amendments, very
necessary to each other. -Cast two sep
arate ballots with Gie explanation !
given ' thereon f Or 1 nach of ; Gie two I
'amendments, and Gie - wordc: "FofH
Aasndment-r-,,Ves." '-'?-tl?1
You will be thanked- wtGf fair grat
itude for th? wisdom of Ute vote. Fa
vor, support and adopt the amend*
men ts, and will the amendments
carry; and at last, alt tho cause of
