Dickinson College will be the op-

iron at the Naval Academy tomorrow
afternoon, and although the middies
should add another victory, they do
not expect to accomplish the result
without overcoming the usual plucky
fight Of the Carlisle aggregation
Sit is getting along toward mid
season now. and there is no doubt but
that the middies are somewhat be-
hind the standard of former years,
especially in offensive work. The
coaches appear to be quite satisfied
with the defensive strength of the
eleven, but they are bending their
greatest efforts to developing more
snap in the offensive tactics of the
baskfield.
So far the middies have shown moth
ing in the way of consistent ground
gaining, except through the ability of
the backs. aided by che charging of
the heavy forwards, to break through
the opposing line. They did great
work in this respect in the lgame
against Georgetown last Saturday,
but then it must be remembered that
the Washington aggregation was
much lighter than the sailor lads.
In the forward pass play, or end
running, the middies have not thus
lar shown much that is really praise
worthy. Not that it is not in them.
On the contrary, it is the policy of
the coaches to bring their charge.

this week has been devoted princi-

a hard 30-minute scrimmage.
The regulars scored twice Hodgson
getting around Jouett's end early in
the scrimmags from the IS-yard line
and Milburn being showed over the
line on a mass play a few minutes
later. After that the scrubs defence
stiffened and the regulars were play

Hodgson and Ford to the game was
an occasion for much pie asure to the
coaches. With all three If the Army's
kickers out because of injuries the
Cadets offensive game had been
weakened considerably. Hobbs is
