New York University had a hard prac-
tice yesterday afternoon on Ohio Field

of Lieutenant Richardson, a former An
napolis player. The navy men got on the
field before the New York men and greatly
amused the crowd with their nautical sig
nails. such as "starboard formation full
ride" etc.
Late IN the afternoon the two teams
lined up against each other, with the un-
derstanding that there should be no scor-
ing Then the fun began. The New York
team started off with a series OF forward
passes which completely bewildered the
stalwart navy men The sailors we're

of the play killed" quite a few Of the
