CLEVER FOOT BALL
GalIaudet and Baltimore NEEDS Failed
to Score on Each other.

About 500 foot ball enthusiasts, of whom q
large number were ladies, saw the game at
Union Park, Baltimore yesterday after
noon between the Baltimore Medical Col
lege and the Gallaudets Of this city, in
which neither side scored and during which
each player covered himself with glory for
his college.
Every one who went out to the contest
was amply repaid by seeing one of the
prettiest foot ball battles that has ever been
fought in Baltimore. 1t was clean" foot
ball throughout, and, though the Maryland
ers averaged about ten pounds more than
the visitors, there was not a moment when
the interest of the spectators could WAIVER.
For forty-fve minutes the two elevens
struggled for supremacy, and at no time
was either goal In any immediate danger.
When Bray. for the NEEDS, kicked off at
the start to Gallaudets fifteen-yard line the
first lineup developed the fact that the doc
tors had met worthy foe. Gallaudet, by
working the ends and bucking the center
carried the ball by short plunges down the
fed for nearly seventy yards before the
embryo physicians braced up and secured
the ball on downs on their twenty-eight-
yard line.
Gallaudet was working the ball slowly
down toward the Medicos goal when time
was called in the first half, with the ball in
the mutes possession about midfield
On the lineup after an intermission Wor-
ley kicked off for Gallaudet and McGovern
brought it back for ten yards until tackled
by Hewetson.
Fierce work was again seen. Foot by
foot and yard by yard the Baltimore eleven
advanced the ball steadily, the mutes stub
bornly contesting each inch of gain. At
length the leather rested on Gallaudet's
twenty-one-yard line, with a third down
and two yards to gain. Scannell made the
attempt, but was thrown back for a loss of
two yards.
Gallaudet now went in to win, and Wa
tiers, her full back, who had been playing
great foot ball, was used time and again
with telling effect. Waters and Pfunder,
Waters and Andree and then Waters four
times in succession was the order, and the
ball was nearing the NEEDS goal. But the
NEEDS gained the ball on downs at their
| fifteen-yard line, and Bray kicked well
down to midfield for thirty-five yards. This
was the closest either side came to scoring
The Gallaudet team has disbanded for the
season, and Left Half Back Erickson of
Minnesota hasAbeen elected captain for next
year. He has played the position on the
Gallaudet team two years and is in the
junior class.
