ARMY GRAY and NAVY BLUE IN
ANNUAL BATTLE ON CRIDIRON

practised on Franklin Field yester-
day afternoon from 3 o'clock to AIS.
The workout was of a light nature,
consisting merely of signals and
punting practise. Prichard, Hobbs
and Reyes did the booting. They
have kicked in all of the Army's
games this yea and will probably
take turns in toeing the leather to

The Army men are depending on
the work of their ends and the kick
ing of Keyes to win for them. Merri-
lot and Markoe, the ends, are stars.
They shine In open field work. 1t is
said that they played rings around
the Yale wing men when West Point
met the Blue.
Devore, the right tackle. who drew
All-American honors last year, Is
probably the star of the team. The
Army eleven as a whole is well bal
anced, but Devore's position will Re
the pivotal one.
Benedict is a good line plugging
fullback. whose work will be in evil
dence.
Last year the noise from the cheer
ing sections was so terrific that the
game was frequently delayed to give
the men an opportunity to near their
signals. The team that is provided
with series plays will have

The Navy has taken possession Of

Cadets and "Middies" Clash in
Great Gridiron Battle
Today.

When the Middies trot out on the
gridiron this afternoon 1t will be with
the Idea of fighting to the ''Iest
ditch" The Annapolis men have some
stars In their lineup. Brown, the
Navy right guard-a veteran of two
years experience and an All-AmerI-
can In 1910-is one of the best linemen
in the college ranks. Brown came
formerly from Mercersburg Academy.
Raulston and Gilchrist are also vet
Grams. The former is a powerful
tackle, while the pluck shown by Gil
christ in last years game is still re-
membered by those who were present
Last year Gilchrist played quarter
back on offense and and on defense
This season, however. he will fill tina
end position at all times, and Rodes
will pilot the eleven.
Hall is a big, powerful tackle, who
will hold down the left side OF the
line. A former Germantown Academy
boy will probably be seen at left enc
at some time during the game. Over
isch will start, but Charlie Austin

AHddies Are Confident.
The MILDLY eleven, with two teams
of substitutes, worked out on Frank
lin Field yesterday afternoon from ]
o'clock till 2:30. They held a brisl
punting and signal drill. The coaches
who were on the field were: Head
Coach Howard. Jack Dalton, the ALI
American halfback, who won the
game for Annapolis last year; Whea-
ton, who has coached the Middies for
the past three seasons; McDevitt, AL
colt and Hates. The feeling among
the Navy men is that they will have
an ever chance today. They believe
that the team that shows the mos
fight will come through a winner.
The West Point players can see
nothing but victory. They declare
that, unless a fiuke occurs, they will
win. Fifty of the Army squad were
