Varsity Shows Little Improve

Annapolis, Nov. l2.-There was little
during the football practice at the Naval
Academy this afternoon that gave any
particular encouragement TO the support
ers Of the local eleven. In scrimmage
between the varsity and the scrub the
regulars scored three touChdowns
The first was made on series Of
straight plays, with Leonard occasionally
carrying the ball around an end for
moderate gain. The second touchdown
came after two successive gains through
forward pass plays, and the third took
place when Vaughan broke through and
blocked a kick, recovering the ball and
taking II across the line.
The second period Of practice was occu-
pied by trying forward pass plays and
also defensive formations against the at
tempts OF the scrub along the same line
During this Collins. Of the scrub, caught
forward pass and ran fifty yards for a
touchdown. McReavey was moved from
end 10 the backfeld, where his height was
useful in getting Off forward pass plays
Later he retired in favor OF Ingram. Har-

backs used. Lieutenant Jonas Ingram
