a turn as has ever been seen on foot
! ball field
The game was a splendid exhibition
OF football from start to finish. barring
the incident which happened near the
games close, and considerable fumb-
/ ling by the midshipmen. par icularly
in the first quarter. Orr fumbled when
the midshipmen were gaining nicely
towards the start, and brought the
Academy attack to S OPP when il APP
peared sure that they were irresist-
able. OF courst, Great Lakes had a
powerful welI-trained team, but it was
the miscues of he midshipmen which
made it dangerous, for they had no
plays which the Academy's defense
system did not meet If properly car
ried out
However. Driscoll did get away for
two considerable runs. though he did
little in running back kicks from the
kick-off. In the third quarter, he slip
ped through the midshipmen's fingers
when he should have been downed for
loss of more than ten yards, and ran
almost clear. but Bill Butler managed
TO get him from behind, and bring him
% earth ten yards from the goal line.
Another run, in the second quarter,
was for 20 yards. but he did nothing
especial outside of these. The forward
pass plays of the visitors were almost
always smeared, while the midship-
men used the same plays to great adj
van age
The midshipmen fought against the
wind in the second and third quarters,
and it looked as If their strategy was
to hold the bluejackets during these
periods, af er having lost their chances
with the wind in the first quarter, and
overwhelm them in the final quarter,
not overlooking, of course, any chances
in the third quarter, covering 55 yards
in six plays-two rushes by Ingram,
one each by Butler and Roberts, and
two forward pass plays. 1t was a
beautiful piece of consistent football
The local lads went about the bus
mess of clinching their victory in the
liudA AuaAbClS anu IL 0pRCaACa Vel latn
that they would do it. The bluejack-
cts put up a tremendous fight, but
were slowly pushed back. All the
honors of the two last halves, excep.-
ing Driscoll's fine run, were with the
midshipmen. 1t was heartsick crowd
that watched from the local stands the
desperate efforts of the midshipmen
to score in the few minutes that re-
NAMED Every forward pass play In
repertoire was trotted out, but moth
ing proved effec i've, and time was call
ed amid the most exuberant express
sions of happiness on the part of the
contingent from the Great Lakes Sta
ton.
After the game, the whole crowd of
roo ers, headed by their splendid hum
dred-piece band, paraded the Academy
and the streets of Annapolis in honor
of their remarkable victory.
