MIDDIES DEFEAT U. OF P.
PLAY ALL AROUND THE wEARERS
OF THE RED AND BLUE.
Hard-FOught Contest ON the Naval
Gridiron-Dickinson College Loses
to Princeton, 23 to o.

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Oct. 22.-In a hard
fought contest here this afternoon the
naval cadet football eleven defeated the
University of Pennsylvania by a score of 10
to s. Except during a portion of the first
half the middies played all around their
famous big four rivals. The red and
blue were never In the hunt and showed
they must improve wonderfully to keep in
select company. Their line was woefully
weak. and. except for some good work by
Gardner. Bennett. Fortiner and Richard
son. they would have been outclassed
throughout.
The navy team played good ball except
for little slowness in getting of their
plays. The line did not charge with suffi-
cient force, and the back as rule got of
slowly. The Quakers twice tried their
famous quarter back kick. but In both in
stances Smith was too quick for the op-
posing ends. Strassburger Soue Whit
ting and Carpenter did splendid playing.
Three minutes after Belknap kicked of
the navy scored it's first touchdown ON an
exchange Of kicks. two fumbles by the red
and blue, a penalty for offside play and
gain by Wilson and McNair. The latter
carried the ball over the line br: failed TO
kick goal. On the next kick off Pennsyl-
vania, after a series of plays, got the ball
near midfield and by steady gains through
the line carried 1t to the navys ten-yard
line. A quarter back kick was frustrated
by Smith Belknap attempted 10 kick out
of danger, but the ball went out OF bounds
with only slight gain. and without a stop
the Quakers carried it over the navy's line
Gardner Kicked ~oai. In the second half
Wilson made touchdown after some fine
gains by the backs. In this half the
Quakers were completely outpleyed and
only the call of time prevented the score
carried OF the field by their comrades after
their victory. Line-up

cause they We're not organizing. He wants
Republicans 10 sweep things in way TO
knock some sense into the heads of Dem
ocratic leaders. Two Democrats in the
same town made the same complaint. In
close counties Democratic candidates for
county offices will get out the party vote,
but where there is no such incentive IT
Is my judgment that quite number in the
aggregate will not go to the polls.

CHARLES 8. HERNLY'S ADVICE.
He Tells Precinct Committeeman to
Get Out Full Vote by Noon.

Charles S. Hernly. of New Castle. who
is in the city, gives the following advice
to precinct committeeman in the State at
large: "Get out the full Republican vote
before noon. Let every precinct commit
teeman see that the Republican voters
in his precinct cast their ballots before
noon. and then let him go and vote HIM
self. In that way there will be no danger
of falling off i'm the vote, and people can
go back to work in the afternoon with con-
fdent hearts. To every precinct man with
whom L have talked l have given that
advice. and L think ii is the best election
day tip that can be sent out. That is the
way We are going to do 1t in Henry county.
We had a meeting of the precinct COM
mitteemen the other day in New Castle,
and every man of them pledged himself to
see that the full vote is got out by the
noon hour"
Although Mr.. Hernly is actively engaged
in private business these days, and has
had little time for going into politics, he
takes direct interest in political affairs and
is doing his best, in Henry county particu-
larly, to see that the vote is cast in full
Il want to repeat my motto" he says; get
out the vote before noon."
