Philadelphia, Dec. LIN the pres

The navy won because it played the
better game. No teams ever faced one
another on Franklin field more evenly
matched or better trained to battle.
Both. the soldiers and the middies for
the, first half kept feeling each 9TH
ers' lines, seeking some vulnerable
point. Each had hurled it's backs
against center and tackle, tried the
ends, worked forward passes and threw
IN few trick plays; but the gains
made were inconsequential
The punters, too, played sort of
trying-out, but there was little if any
advantage between Douglas and Bea-
yyers, altho the: latter Is kicks were suf-
'ticiently high to enable the army ends
to get down the field. The defensive
work Of both teams was a big feature.
If anything, the navy put up the stiff
est defense, and it gradually wore down
the army until in the second half the
middies found the West Point line not
go impregnable as in the first, and
Spencer and Ingram pierced the line
often for good gains.

taken along this line. The training table
was discussed at great length, but the
reformers permitted the old rule to
stand so that boarding house mysteries
