ELLrCOTT CITY, Nd. November j.
After being hopelessly defeated here TO-
day by the foot ball eleven representing
Rock Hill College "a to the Cathohc
University eleven of Washington an
nounced through Manager Carter It's III
1ention of disbanding for the remainder
of the season. Reversals have cost the
team the services of many of its fastest
and most consistent players since the
start of the season. To cap the climax
Quarterback Hinchman, who has been
the life of the team in previous games,
yesterday handed in his suit and an
nounced that he would be forced to de-
sert the gridiron because of parental
objections.
AS result the team that faced Rock
Hill today was materially Handicapped.
being forced to place substitute in the
most important position. Fitzgerald,
who was chosen to shoulder the impor-
tant functions of the position. failed to
come up to expectations, and conse-
Quently, after few minutes of play.
Capt Daley was compelled to make
radical change in his lineup, trans
ferring Clancy from the back field
to quarterback, bringing Center Greer
to fullback In place OF Clancy
and putting Revere. substitute.
at center. The change worked well for
a while. but ultimately unfamiliarity with
their respective positions resulted disas-
trousiy for the Capital city players, and
Rock Hill started steady march up and
down the field that was only halted by
flashes Of fast play on the part of the
opponents.
In striking contrast to the work of the
losers, the local crew gave a grand ac-
count of itself and played foot ball in
far better style than at any previous
time during the season. 1t seemed TO
take advantage Of the crippled condition
of its opponents and unraveled every
play that 1t has been taught >during
the season. After rolling up a comfort
able score in the early stages of the game,
IL resorted to trick plays and rarely
failed to use them advantageouSy. Quick
returns on punts helped out considera-
bly,, and by clever work along these lines
on the part of Quarterback F'uccy of the
home team, Rock Hill gained an abun-
dance of territory. The work of certain
individuals the Washington team
stood out in striking contrast to the
cratic play of their teammates. Mont
gomery, at left end, proved himself one
of the most aggressive and gamest play

many a day.

after tackle that saved an extra score.
the gritty youngster stuck to his task
and only retired with but few minutes
left to play in order TO give Collins, a
substitute. a chance to get in the game.
Woodward, at left tackle, was another
player who proved his aggressiveness be-
yond question. He, too. was injured and
was compelled To leave the game tenn
porarily. He resumed his task after a
short rest, and continued his excellent
all-around play.
For Rock Hill Can't. Fuccy and Tai
liaferro were the bright particular stars
The former used excellent Judgment in
running his team and contributed some
exceptionally fast play on the offense.
Several times he skirted the opposing
