e. ANNAPOLIS, Nov BY line geuer-
alship and a remarkable series of line
plunges by Full5ock Hirshman Penn
sylvania state defeated the eleven Of
The Naval Academy here this after
noon by TO o, the only other defeat
inflicted on the mldshipmen This sea
son being by Princeton, and by the same
score as that OF today
The game was q good one and the
State college men did nothing 10 justify
The reports OF their rough playing sent
out from Yale. In fact. the game with
state is regarded as one of the most
desirable on the Navy schedule on ac-
count Of the sDortsmanHke conduct of
The team
Heavy Penalties.
In the second haIf today The game was
mGrred by the frequent imposition Of
penalties by Umpire Stauffer. Navy
was penalized Iu most instances, but
state was the sufferer on couple Of
occasions. Nearly every PENALTY pre-
scribed in the rule hook was brought
into use during the half. but the in
fractions We're not deliberate and Ia no
case was there The slightest show OF
1lI-feeling.
state received about 3J yards ia
one instance. hal. the distance Il its
opponents goal. because Northcroft
charged into Hushman after the lat
ter had punted. Twice State received
fifteen yards because Dague, the Nays
swift END, diyed into a State back
hefor. he had touched the bah he was
about 10 catch
The only score of the game came at
about the middle OF the first half An
exchange of punts had given the ball
in midield and Henry took the bah 20
the Navy's l0-yard line on quarter
back run. II was found that Hirshman
could hit the right side OF the Navy line
with good results, and he was used
necessarily. He was almost entirely re-
sponsible for the ground gaining which
put the ball on Navys 2-yard line. From
this point McCleary carried the ball
over. The same player missed an easy
goal.
Important Absentees.
In the second half honors were more
nearly even, though there was stiH a
balance in favor OF the visitors. The
entire right side of the Navy line vas
changed and did better work. Most OF
the gains i'm this half were made by
Henry Ou his quarterback runs, aided
by excellent interference from the backs
Burg was the best gamer Tor the Navy
but the offensive work was poor.
Teh absence of Captain Spencer and
Quarterback Norton was hard blow
and the Navy feels that the game would
have been decidedly in doubt had these
players and Left-Taclle Picrson beer
In the lineup. Navy plays Swarthmort
next Saturday and Center CobbIe o1
