Victory Over Sailors.
SCORE, ELEVEN TO NOTHING
Teams Are Evenly Matched, but Re-
narkabIe Play Takes Sap Out Of
Annapolis Squad During Fatal
First Half.

Philadelphia, Nov. 2s.-west Point
defeated the Annapolis football eleven,
11-0-two touchdowns and one goal.
The score does not properly indicate
the relative strength of the two elev-
ems. for probably not in the history OF
the great university game have two
teams been more evenly matched.
The first touchdown for the army re-
suited from tumble by one OF the
navy backs. but the brilliancy with
which Upton. the army center. took
advantage of the error has never been
excelled, IL equaled. on the football
gridiron.
The game had been in progress less
than 10 minutes when West Point
found the navy line Gibraltar. and
Toriey kicked to midAeld. There were
three Annapolis men under the punt.
but when all had been thrown the BAN
rolled of to one side Of the mass Of
players. Upton. coming on from be-
hind. kicked the ball toward the navy's
goal. Pursued by half a dozen navy
men, he had no time to stoop and secure
the sphere, but, rushing on. he again
iribbled it. His aim was accurate and
the ball was nearer the navy's goal. A
third kick and the pigskin was behind
he navy's goal Tipton lying upon 1t.
This was probably the turning point
If victory for West Point. Up to this
ime the Annapolis boys really out
,alyed their heavier opponents. Twen-
y-two minutes later the army scored
gain. There was no score In the last
lalf.
