Lieut.. Anderson, former all
American quarterback at Col
gate, played marvellous foot ball
in the victory of his team, the
311th Infantry, representing
Camp Dix, over the 31lth Regi-
ment of Camp Meade on
Franklin Field this afternoon.
Dix won by the score of Is
to E, and thereby gained the
interdivisional championship. An
derson made every point for the
winning side. The game was
one of the most interesting seen
on Franklin Field this year. Both
teams relied largely on straight
foot ball, 20 per cent of the plays
being line plunges, in winch
Mackart of Meade and Mark
thaler of Camp Dix were the star
performers. Mylin, formerly OF
Franklin and Marshall, did most
of the open-held running OF his
team. Mylin used the forward
pass to advantage, "a feature OF
the game in which Meade ex-
