OUAKERS TRIM LAFAYETTE
Easton Eleven Is Too Light for Big

Philadelphia, Nov. 2-The Pennsylvania
team was for several reasons anxious to
do well against Lafayette in the football

was that Lafayette always has been hard
for it to beat. and the second that the

The Lafayette team was as heavy as
Pennsylvania, and although not quite as
well drilled. promised TO give a great

Icnback did great execution with the op-
posing line. and the despairing feelings
Of the Quakers have been revived a
great deal by the result. The Quaker
ends did very effective work. and the sec
ondary defense when II was tested did
nicely
For all those reasons there is a great
deal more confidence now than there was
after the game with the Indians.
Incidentally. while the game with La
fayette was going on, there was eager
attention being paid TO the match in New
York. wnere the late conquerors Of the
Pennsylvania team were engaging Prince

favor Of Princeton the 900 rain-soaked
enthusiasts sitting in the stands groaned.
The Quakers had hoped that the Tigers
would meet their fate at the hands Of the
Indians and thus make the defeat Of
Pennsylvania seem not so bad after all.
Lafayette was dangerous once only.

one which they would have little difficulty
in winning, but the West Virginians de-
veloped unexpected strength, and played
a desperate game from start 10 finish
The game was played in a driving rain
storm. The field was thoroughly soaked,
and this rendered it difficult for the play
ers TO maintain a footing and handle the
bail, but, in spite of the elements, the
work Of both teams was spirited and
interesting throughout
The mlddies made the single score early
in the first half. The teams exchanged
a couple of kicks, Navy finally getting
the ball on West Virginias 4o-yard line
Here the players got together, and by
good team work began a steady march
down the field, Hambsch making the
touchdown and LANCE kicking goal
The middies covered considerably more
ground than their opponents, but their
offensive work was Offset by the stubborn
defense exhibited by the West Virginians
at critical stages. on one occasion in the
second period they held for downs when
the middies had the ball two yards from
the goal line.
West Virginias most opportune time 20
score came in the first half, when Shelton
intercepted one of Lange's forward
passes and ran thirty yards before being
downed by LANCE. This placed the ball
on Nays 9O-yard mark, but on the next
play the visitors lost on a tumble.
