GLEASON SHOWS THE WAY
Helps "PoIy Prep" to Victory
Over Erasmus Hall.

Gleason, the husky right end on the
Poly Prep" football team. accepted his
opportunity yesterday, and by blocking a
kick made II possible for Poly to close
the season with a victory over its rivals Of
Erasmus Hall by the score of 8 TO O. The
contest. which was played on the field at
Washington Park Brooklyn. yesterday
afternoon, was a pretty bit Of football. II
furnished exciting moments enough 70 sat

Erasmus was twice within striking dis
lance Of the goal, but failed to score.
In the third period, with Erasmus backed
to its 1-yard line, Roth attempted to punt
The tall, alert Gleason blocked the ball, and
as he did so Roth fell on the leather be-
hind the line for a safety. In the fourth
period Gleason broke through as Roth was
about TO punt The latter fumbled the bail.
and Gleason gathered in the ova! and wrig
gled across for a touchdown. Mendes
kicked the goal.
The greater part Of the game was
punting duel between Du Tremhly, the live
wire quarterback Of Poly Prep" and
Roth, Of Erasmus Roth originally began
as fuI!back, but later changed places with
Weber the quarterback. Du Trembly had
the best of these exchanges. He was con-
sistent in his kicking. and he was also
helped out by a rush line that always held
Erasmus in check and boxed the ends.
Roth was slow in getting off his kicks. and
was further Handicapped, as his defence
could not hold back the Poly line. Few
of the forward passes attempted by either
side were completed because Of fumbles.
Briefly and Sack. on the Erasmus side,

Roth's nerves. and this seemed to figure in
the two attempts that Roth made 10 score

failed 10 time his kick properly. well know

charging for him, and the ball went wide Of

nevertheless making steady inroads in

Briefly, the differences between the

the legalized illegalities which have
made the Yankee sport what 1t is.
The basic change was the scrimmage,
which, when Harvard adopted the
game IN 1876. was a sort of eumber-

q businesslike swapping back of the
ball, which saved time, but destroyed
