V. NJ. 1. has scored 27S points this

In the summing up OF the different.

GRAFTON that v. M. l. scored 3S points
more than Washington and Lee Uni

She scored so points more than ST.

SHAW UNIVERSITY
DEFEATS UNION.
North Carolina Negro 1nstitu-
ton Wins from Locals
by S to o.

The football team Of the Shaw Uni
versity. of Raleigh, ~ c., yesterday af-
ternoon defeated tho eleven Of the
Virginia Union University, the best
colored aggregation in Virginia. in
spirited football game at Broad Street
Park by q score Of to O. The game
was witnessed by almost thousand
persons, including many white people.
The Carolinians considerably out
weighed the yirgin!ans. but even with
this advantage. were only able to score
once, and failed in the try for goal
eleven twice held their opponents for
downs near their own goal and there
BY prevented further scoring. !.
+ While the game was interesting as
a contest, neither team used much
Judgment in running off its plays. and
there was little variety. The Shaw
team gained almost at will BY line
plunges. which the Union team seemed
almost powerIess to stop. Union ex-
lcelled in punting. and in this respect
alone. In running back punts the
home team was very poor. the runner
generally being thrown further back
than the point at which he caught the
punt. There was little Interference
for the Union runners, and little more
for the Shaw backfield
The winners used a tandem forma ton
on tackles, which yielded from four
to eight yards at almost every plunge.
Their touchdown was made by rush
ing the ball thus from their twenty
Vineyard line down the field and over
the line. Whenever they attempted
an end run the runner was usually
thrown without gain.
n The Union line appeared utterly un-
able to stop that whirling tandem on
tackle, and that9tells the story of de-
feat The Shaw team used poor judg-
ment in not punting the ball down
the field and taking a chance OF get
ting it in a scramble. for almost every
punt was fumbled. Neither team avail
ed itself of fake kick when 1t would
probably have made the required dis
lance several times, nor was the on
side kick or delayed pass or forward
pass often attempted by either team
1t was straight plugging at the line.
and in this the Union backs could make
little ground against the strong Shaw
line. The Union line was notystrong
enough to resist the rushes of the OPP
posing forwards and several kicks
were blocked. 81
The game was a rough one, espe--
cially in tackling, but the Union men
were the chief sufferers. 5. W. Graves,
