 TO WEST POINTERS
ARMY FOOTBALL TEAM CAP TUREs LAST BIG GAME BY THE
 SPLENDID SCORE 20 TO o.

Philadelphia, Nov 2S.-The United States military academy football team defeated the Naval academy eleven by 20 to 0 in the annual service game on Franklin field today. The gridiron superiority of the cadets over the midshipmen was as marked as the score would appear to indicate. Once the powerful and well balanced Army machine started its march for the ini tial touchdown the ultimate outcome of the game was never in doubt The Annapolis combination was outplayed il every department and but for the splendid fighting spirit of the Navy in the face of certain defeat the score would have been even larger.
 Although the game lacked the close ness and thrill that has featured the Army-Navy battles of other years. it furnished the scenic picture which distinguished it from all other games of the season and formed a fitting eli max upon waich to sound football taps for 1914.
 With the University of Pennsyl- vania athletic amphitheater thronged with nearly 33.000 spectators, every available foot of space in both per manent and temporary stands was occupied Because of the cosmopoii- tan character of the gathering the colors of the competing academies were unusually prominent The sup porters of both the Army and the Navy followed every cue given by the cheering squads of the sailors and soldiers and as a result the long. oval-shaped stand surrounding the field was constantly a ripple with the hues of either West Point or An napolis
