c. j. SHOWS ITS
BEST FOOT BALL
Of the Year and Holds Heavy
ViiIan0va Eleven to Score
of 7 to 20.
RESULT A CREDIT TO
BROOKLAND SCHOOL
Gives Evidence That Team Is
Strongest That Has Ever
Represented University.

Showing a superior form to
anything ever evidenced bv A
foot ball team representing the
Catholic University. The eleven
wearing the colorS OF that ins,i-
tuition held the heavy Nillanova
eleven down to a score OF : to 20.
1t was an excellent exhibition
given by the Brcoi5landers. AID
their work was all the more prom
Inent i'll that they were out
weighed BY al least twenty
pounds to the man.
There were periods during the
game when the local eleven really
outplayed the big northern team.
HE llnemen were more aegreS-
sive and the backs ripped and
tore III way which caused the
onlookers to marvel. Had the
{. I. players been within five or
eight pounds of weighing as much
as the men they were against 1t
is probable they would have come
mighty near winning.
The Rrookland eleven displayed
a more versatile style OF play than
its opponent, and many times dis
played a cleverness that was en-
tirely unexpected The work OF
the team as a whole was above
the standard OF any team which
has ever represented the institu-
ton. and the players accomplished
things in a way that was credit
To themselves.
NAlanova depended on the old
style of play Tor most OF It's gains.
Time and again it ran off split
backs and went through {. Is
line for long gains. Whenever
ii made end rims it would be
around its right end and the backs
would box Lynch, {. is pluckv
end. in and the man advancing
the bail would progress down the
field until one OF the secondary
defense would bring HIM To earth.
