1t is worthy of something more than
passing comment that two games last
Saturday. which were expected to be
exceedingly rough, were as cleanly
played as any contests in the history
of foot bali. Reference is made to
the c. U.-Maryland contest at Ameri-
can League Park. and to the George
town Navy meeting at Annapolis. For
the three or four years prior to this
every game in which the Brooklanders
and Marylanders met was featured
by rough play. and everybody looked
for a repetition. However, the game
was noteworthy for the clean. sports

pugnacious tendencies shown by the

good foot ball called for. Many opin-
