ANNAPOLIS. Nov. THE sting Of
defeat administered by the North Caro-

urday IL somewhat salvcd by the fact
that at the same time the Army team
was getting a very similar injection
from Villanova. an eleven not sup
posed to be a dangerous opponent Of
the soldiers. While service people
would like to feel that their teams
were playing up TO the standard of
the best agGyegations in the country.
IL Is still something to look forward
to q game between elevens of about
equal merit. and everything points
to this condition when sailor ana
soldier clash on the New York Polo
Grounds at the end Of this month.
The statement that the result OF the
first quarter disheartened the mid
shipmen IL not supported by the
facts. The onslaught by which Caro-
lima brought the ball from their own
line at the very start was by far the
best and most sustained offensive
work OF the game. bat except on

II Is true that one OF the Nays

preparations for the Navy game. All
military drills came to an end last
week. and from now on the men will be
pointed toward the battle in New York
on November q with the Middies.
The coaches will give some special
attention this week to the plans for the
Notre Dame contest. which comes next
on the Army s. schedule. General dis
appointment is expressed at the failure
of the team to win from Villanova on
Saturday.
The wide open plays used by the vis-
itors. together with an abundance Of
well designed forward passes. spelled
defeat for the Cadets. This style OF
game has caused trouble for the Army
all season. and much Of the work
planned for this week will be with the
idea OF framing suitable defense for
such an attack
