ARMY IS SHUT OUT
Notre Dame OutpIays and De-
feats West Point, 7 to 0.
CADETS WINGS ARE WEAK
Numerous Penalties Imposed for
0ffside Play and
Holding.

WEST POINT, N. r, November g.
The Army lost to Notre Dame today, Z
to 0. in a well played and hard-fought
game. The Army showed a weak Of
tense and none of the Cadet backs
could gain consistently through the
Notre Damealine. except, oliphant, who
played his usual star game. The Army
forwards were outplayed most Of the
time and its wings were woefully weak.
Three times Notre Dame essayed to
kiclr field goals, but failed. Coffin out
kicked Phelan in a punting duel.
The nearest the Army came to scor-
ing was in the last quarter when OIL
phant heeled a catch on Notre Danes
46-yard line. At this point hestried a
goal from placement, but in a strong
wind the kick was an inch short, the
ball striking the cross bar directly in
the center. The Cadets got down to
Notre Danes 30-yard mark in the first
period, but poor work by Murrill, who
was thrown for loss of 20 yards In
an attempt at forward passing, lost
them the advantage.
The visitors scored in the last few
minutes Of play. Obtaining the ball at
midfield, they began an attack which
took them within striking distance. A
long forward pass, Cofall to Bergman,
gave them the touchdown a moment
later when the latter ran the remaining
35 yards to the Army goal line. Cofall
kicked the goal.
There was some loose handling of the
ball and numerous penalties were i'm
posed for offside play and holding.
Bergman and Cofall were the stars for
Notre Dame. while McEwan and Oil
phant played the Best game for the Ca
diets.

M. A. c. Gets Touchdown.

Washington College received the kick
off. and after beiDg held for downs
kicked. Speer ran the ball back yards
and NJ A. G. gained but yards in three
trials, and punted. Washington College
then started forward passing. but its
heaves were blocked, or the short
throws faifed to net the catcher any
thing. The visitors kicked to the CEN
ter of the field, and the Farmers start
ed a march to the goal line. A 20
yard run through tackle by Speer and
a 10-yard gain around end by Derrick
placed the ball on the 5-yard line, from
where Speer went over on plunge
through center forsthe first touchdown.
Speer also kicked goal.
Washington College got the ball in
the middle Of the field in the second
period, and a forward pass Of about 10
yards was struck by Shank, but instead
Of the ball being dashed to the ground
it went directly into the arms OF Framp-
ton, who lodged his way by Speer to
the goal line and touchdown. A fall
ure on the punt out prevented try at
goal.
That was all the scoring done In the
first half. At the beginning of the Sec
ond half the Aggies did little better
work, and got two touchdowns in the
third quarter. Their last score came IN
the fourth quarter, when there was only
about two minutes left to play, and
was the result of 50-yard run by
speer. It was the longest run of the
day. The second touchdown for WASH
ington was made about the middle OF
the fourth quarter or a long forward

COLUMBUS. Ohio. November g.
Ohio State defeated Indiana by one
point here today in a foot ball game
full of thrills. The final score was 10
to 3. 1ndiana's greater weight, silent
signals and frequent change of players
could not wear down the Ohioans
In the first period Ohio State, chiefly
by end runs, rushed the ball to within
one foot of Indiana's goal line, but
lacked the punch to put 1t over. After
an exchange of punts. Ohio State reach
ed the visitors 30-yard line. from which
Winters kicked goal from placement.
A series of line plunges and Whit
aker's 16-yard run round end in the
second period resulted in Indiana's first
score, a touchdown by Erehart. Soon
after the start of the second half the
Ohioans attempted the forward passing
game, but did not have much success
until Norton replaced Winters at left
half. Another forward pass failed, but
the second landed in Norton's arms and
he ran 81 yards for Ohios second
score. In the third quarter Erehart
missed a dropkick, the ball rolling to
Ohio's goal line, where Sorenson picked
it up and was downed behind his goal
line for safety. Indiana was on the
offensive most of the last quarter and
frequently used the forward pass
Shortly before the contest ended the
visitors " ere held for downs within
Ohios 5-yard line.
