days game with Dickinson College
being able to score but once, and that
largely the result of a favorable
break in luck, the midshipmen went
into the last half an literally swept
the visitors off their feet, piling up a

was Navy. %. Dickinson, 0.
Though outweighed by tie middies,
Dickin presented a somewhat
heavier team than was expected, and
while the backfeld was quite fast,
they could make no real impression on
the heavy line, nor were they able
tC gain much around the ends. They
stood the pace we'll in the first half
but the heavy charges of the Navy
line set telling pace, and one that
the Dickinson lads could not with
stand as the game wore on.
At no stage of the battle did the
visitors endangtr the locals goal line,
but there was one man in the Dickin-
son lineup who proved a real terror
for the sailor lads to stop. This was
Dunn, at fullback. Indeed his indi-
vidual work stamped him as the star
of the game. He bore the lions share
of the VOL rk in the Dickinson attack.
frequently getting through the Navy
line for couple of yards or so, and
besides he was bulwark of strength
in Diekinson's sec ondary defensive
battery.
The plucky fullback showed keen
ness in diagnosing the Navy offensive
play, and he was in the thick of
practically every scrimmage. But the
strain, however, proved too much for
him, and toward the close of the
third period he retired from the
game, thoroughly fatigued, in favor
of Dalton. His absence from the
lineup soon made itself evident, for
the middies were able to tear through
for great gains more readily than
before. Except for an unfortunate
tumble by Dickinson, which contrib
uted to the middies first touchdown,
there probably would not have been
any scoring at all in the first half.
The opening of the second half
found the middies putting a little
more ginger into their playing and
by old-fashioned football they rushed
the ball for a total of so yards, Mitch
ell finally going over for touchdown.
Leonard kicked goal. Three more
points were added in the third period
by Leonard drop-kicking for goal
from the 35-yard line. In the last
quarter the Navy coaches ran in a
number of substitutes and by this time
the visitors were apparently so worn
out by the gruelling work that the
middies' pace did not lessen a bit.
Two more touchdowns and cne of the
resulting goals made UP the scoring
for the period. The visitors got off
two clever forward passes in this per-
iod for gains of 16 and 90 yards, but
play was we'll in their own zone at
the time
Though the mi1dies worked the
ends oftener and with greater sue
cess during the game than at any
time this season, they are still far
behind in the mastery of the forward
pass. Their attempts along this line
all proved fizzles. And, in spite of
their strength in other respects, the
middies would be up against re al
danger if they found team that
showed much aptitude ia the modern
game
