In the second half Gallaudet kicked to

pigskin was brought back FIVE yards.
Straight line rushes carried the ball down
the field until George Washington fumbled
on Gallaudet's two-yard line. Vierra broke
through the line and fell upon the pig
skin. Beard was then sent around right
END for the third touchdown of the con-
test. Steenerson kicked goal. As the teams
lined up the George Washington University
coach took Vierra from the game and
filed his position with Harralson. who Is
perhaps the lightest man Of the squad.
In the hzst lineup the change was appa-
rent. for Galiaudet seemed to make right
guard the charging spot and entry place
to mix up with the George Washington
backs. Many of the George Washington
men could not UNDERSTAND how a man Of
tferras weight and experience should have
been replaced by a much younger and
lighter man who has rarely played in the
position.

first half. but kicked only one goal max
ing the score 81 to at the end of the first
twenty minutes of play. Virginia was in a

being laid up with injuries. The playing of
Virginia, however. was very good Nen. at
fullback, and Randolph. at right haifback,
making long and spectacular gains.
Randolph electrified the crowded bleach
ers with a sensational run of 20 yards for
a touchdown, lodging the whole Hampden
Sydney team. Neff brought the spectators
to their feet again and again by his long
gains through the lines. making 20 and 80
yards each time. Cooke. at right tackle
played a good game for Virginia making
numerous fine tackles. Maddux, at right
end. also played a beautiful defensive game.
Joynes. the plucky little left end for
Hampden Sydney. was the bright star for
the visitors. Again and again lDe tackled
the fast Virginia backs for no gains. and
caught the Virginia ball on a double pass
and ran so yards for a touchdown making
Hampden Sydney's only score.
Hampden Sydney was unable to gain
through the lines owing to the aggressive
work of Cloth Virginias stocky center.
