PLAYS GREAT FOOT BALL

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, September
3O.-Virginia's sturdy band of foot ball
warriors decisively refuted the claims cir
culated of late that they are below the
standard of teams of past years in the
game with William and Mary on Lam
beth Field today, rolling up the record
number of points in all of the inStitu-
tons foot ball history and maintaining
an impregnable defense that held the OPP
position to a few yards of earned terri
tory in the entire contest.
Eighty-one points represents the sum
total of the teams efforts. and seventy
of these We're registered by the varsity
in the opening period. Although the
scrubs added but eleven points, the score
hardly tells the tale of their showing.
On two distinct occasions the backs car
ried the ball over the goal line, but We're
called back for slight infringements on
the rules. Capt. Bowen was the only
regular who was kept in the game after
the first half. and he was left in his po-

of few men who were worked for the
first time. William and Mays repre-

Carter, a Lawrenceville Academy prod

both on the Offense and defense being
such as to draw thunderous applause
from the onlookers. On several occa-
slons he put his two hundred and forty
pounds of grit and muscle against the
great majority of the opposing forwards
and paved the way for scores.
