how the touchdown was made are
accurate. According to statements of
those who saw the play the Virginians
made an onside kick which rolled
across the goal line and the touch
down was scored when one of their
players fell on the ball. The rules
are very plain on this point and pro-
vide that in such cases the referee

such cases that the man who might

the same relationship to the ball that
players do on the kick off or on a free
kick. However, this Interpretation

enough foot ball to win with less ground
gaining. then its performance might be
considered even better than if 1t had
been able to rush the ball up and down
the field.
Maryland State was whipped by West
Virginia because West Virginia present
ed a better team. Two more brilliant
ground gaining backs are not to he
found in foot ball than Rodgers and Hill
state knew what Rodgers was and. with
the exception of one long dash after re-
ceiving a punt. stopped him. But the
rttention paid Rodgers allowed Hill
more of an opening than he otherwise
would have had. and it was he who was
the only real ground gaining back dur
ing the game.
ers the first time he has been a reg
ular this year. though everybody
around Morgantown is at loss to ex-
plain why he has not been regular
all alcng. States weak spot was at
right end Euckeister, who started
in the position, was injured on the
second play of the game and both the
other ends were left at College Park
because of injuries. substitute
halfback went through the game in
the position. and, of course. did not
do justice either to his own usual
standard of play nor the teams. State
went through the game without its
two regular halfbacks and played on
a field that was the worst with which
it ever had to contend. However.
despite these facts, West Virginia
had better foot ball team than State
and would have won under any con-
ditions and against the best eleven
the Marylanders could have mustered.
Colgate made good in it's struggle
Ithacans in their games previous to
the one with Colgate did not show
enough strength to cause anybody to
look for anything but a Colgate vic
tory. And that is just what took
place. Cornell being entirely out
classed In every department of play.
Pittsburgh's defeat at the hands of
Syracuse probably occasioned greater
surprise than any other game that
has been played this season. The de-
feat of Pittsburgh was not looked
for, though there were some it did not
surprise. For instance, on Friday. be-
fore the Pitt-Syracuse contest. Har-
ry Stansbury. director of athletics
at West Virginia University. told the
writer this:
while we have not said so for pub
we might be considered as attempt
ing to establish an alibi for our de-
feat by Pitt. 1 can honestly tell you
that Pitt does not have the team this
year it has had for the last four sea-
sons. Not only that. but it is going
to get whipped before t e year is
over. and get whipped decisively.
rhall not be surprised if Syracuse de-
c!sively beats Pitt tomorrow"
Gallaudets defeat at Hopkins by a
big score was rather peculiar. in that
Hopkins scored most of it's 80 points
in the second half. The Kendall
Greeners ran wild in the first quarter.
but in the second half the better con-
dition and greater weight of the Bal
tImoreans proved the winning fac
tors.
Yale's defeat by Boston College is
