today the onside kick. cleverly work
cd by Western Maryland, Was the
undoing OF st. Johns. In the first
half Il seldom failed TO work for good
gains and saved the ball whenever the
visitors were hard pressed. Turner
also ran we'll from his position at
quarter and Carver and Gibson proved
STEADY ground gamers.
st. Johns started oil well, kicking
of and holding for downs on the Visi-
tors 30-yard line. However. an un-
successful attempt at a field goal gave
the visitors the ball and after several
substantial gains, an onside kick was
tried. II was recovered by Turner,

substantial gains, bringing the ball to
the 10-yard line. This was halved
by Carver and Atkins carried the ball
over for the second touchdown, Turner
again kicking the goal.

second half and after several short
gains, Magruder puntsd for St.
Johns. The ball was held for downs
and ST. John S carried ii to Western
Maryland 5-yard line, where the v
were stopped. The ball as passed to
Turner for kick, but Anderson S
fierce tackle caused him TO score a
safety against his side. There was a
peculiar play on the kick-out from the
25-yard line. Arnold, who was about
five yards from the kicker, caught the
ball and held it on the 30-yard line.
ST. Johns gained 20 of the necessary
yards, but lost the ball on downs on
the 10-yard line. Turner kicked out
Of danger. During the remainder OF
the game the ball was kept in st.
Johns territory.
Although st. John S lost the game
by being outplayed, it is only fair to
say that its team has been unfortu-
nate and that il played very plucixy
game. Captain Stevens was not in
the game at any time. Quimby, the
big full back and bulwark of the de-
fcnse, hurt his leg in practice yeste ]
day and was also out, and neither
Anderson, Warfield or Bosley was in
good shape. Anderson and Warfield
played excellent games and Bowen
played finely at end. The line
