The surprise of the season came
Saturday afternoon when the strong
eleven representing the Great Lakes
Naval Camp trounced the Scarlet
jerseyed crew flying the colors of Rut-
gers College. A team hat was cons
coded by all experts as the best in the
East and practically unbeatable re-
ceived the beating OF Its career and all
through the spectacular playing OF
one player. The man that proved the
chief factor to Rutgers ~inglorious de-
feat was Paddy Driscoll, the quarter
back of the sailors team. 1t was
this former Northwestern who after
tearing of two long run for touch
downs n ripped the Rutgers rugged
line who dispelled Rutgers morale
and left them an easy victim for his
team mates plunging and scoring in
SEPARATIONS.
Rut - 5 started the game by scoring
two tOuchdowns by straight line
plunging and n skirting. Things
looked rosy for the New Brunswick
the second touchdown. Baker. the
plucky little quarterback, was forced
to give the g~eneralship of the Scar
let team to French. because of his
being knocked out in n scrimmage.
A few minutes later Driscoll caught a
line and broke through Rutgers whole
team for the tars first touchdown.
In the same quarter, the second, he
again ran a punt back sixty-1ve yards
this time to the second score but
failing to kick the goal gave his team
thirteen points while Rutgers had
fourteen chalked up.
In the second half DriscolI tore
through the Rutgers limo at will. He
seemed unstoppable and tore off long
runs time and again. The sailors
worked a few forward passes to per-
lection q made gain after gain The
Rutgers team went ell to pieces and
the only man of the 8. At. c. eleven
that could hold the runner was Rob-
eson. the dusky tackle OF the college
team. Time and again Roby would
stop advance of the sailors. but
finally he too was worn down and then
came the scoring fest of the Great
Lakes.
Rutgers can well attribute It's first
defeat in three years to Paddy Dris-
coll, the former Northwestern Univer-
city player. Paddy was a revelation
of what a quarterback should be and
made a showing at Ebbet's field Satur-
day that will never be forgotten in
foot ball circles. His long runs
amazed the spectators and stunned the
Rutgers gridders. His clevar broken
field running and line plunginS dis
heartened and finally his g~eneralship
routed the Rutgers team anad marked
