game at right half back although he
lacked the knack OF keeping his feet

The Delaware College football team
has completed one of the most sue
cessful seasons since football has
been played at the State college. The
cadets schedule was looked upon by
football critics early in the season as
being harder than an ordinary team
should be called upon TO take, especi-
ally in view of the fact that all the
most important games, with but one
exception, were played on the grounds
Of Delaware's opponents, necessitating
long and tedious trips. The Blue and
Gold schedule contained five games
which could be considered hard ones,
these being the contests with Swarth-
more, Haverford, AIuhlenbreg, Gettys-
burg and Dickinson. all being played
on foreign grounds with the exception
Of the last game
That the "Chics" were able to go
through this list of hard games and
never have over seventeen points
scored on them, is considered a re-
markable achievement at Delaware.
The game with the Quakers at Swarth-
more topped the success OF the State
college eleven when the game result
i'd in scoreless tie. Swarthmore out
weighed Delaware fifteen pounds to
the man, both teams had played but
a single game, and with the game held
on the Garnet's grounds, the little, fast
eleven from Newark held the Quaker
giants to a 10 score. Previous
years scores with Swarthmore had
made Delaware look like easy money
and the way in which McAvoy's men
toNod with tho pennsvlVaniane WAS a
true come back for the Blue and Gold
warriors.
When one BEERS in mind that the
eleven is picked from a hundred and
fifty regular students and that these
men must satisfy the faculty in theil
studies before dOnning gridiror
suit, the record of the team is al
the more wonderful Every one Of the
opponents have at least twice as large
a student body as attend the college al
