Army, 10, at Polo Grounds

iiuke after a steady slogging march of
forty-liye yards across the field. Every
inch of that forty-tive yards was earned
by hard, straight rushing
tumble Prevents Another score
70 prove its vast superiority the
Navy took the kick off and brought the
ball fro mitS own yard line to within
twelve yards Of another touchdown,
when Il bad tumble broke up the at
tack. In these two rushes The Navy Of
fense had car ed the ball more than
one hundred yards without yielding it
once, and only a costly tumble at a
critical moment held the score to seven
points
These two consistent Navy marches
TINT the game held, for UP to this point
the contest WAS not only devoid Of in
terest, but devoid Of first class football
from every angie Of the game.

own fs-yard line, mistake in fudg-
ment on the first play. Th" Navy, un-
able 10 gain an incn, orced to
kick French covered the punt on the
Navy 40-yard line, an IDEAL spot to start
an attack. with every one fresh and
ready for the drive.
Army Fails in Attempt to Score
But the Army had nothing tc attack
with. The feet French couldn't even
set started. The forward passing game
was badly executed, and so the Army
had to kick. The Navy, unable to gain
from its own S-yard line, kicked again,
and this time the Army had it's chance,
only thirty three pards from the Navy
goal Two forward passes, one an easy
catch, were promptly muffed, and then
French failed in the first OF his three
attempts to kick a goal from place
ment. The effort fell far short.
The remainder of the first half was
only repetition Of futile rushing and
futile passing on the part of both
teams. Neither could gain any ground
and neither line could prevent the
other from crashing through and piling
up the plays. The Navy was penaiized
three times for undue roughness or
pl!ng on and the Army Was penalized
once.
The vital statistics a tho end OF the
first half show that the Army, by rush
ing and passinng, had gained total Of
eight yards net and had lost fifteen
yards on n penalty. The advance, there
fore had been matter Of minus seven
yards. The same invaluable statistics
show that the Navy had gained twenty
eight yards this first half and had lost
forty-tvc by penalties, with net loss
of seventeen yards Both elevens. so

chance for any one to cheer. for the
Two machines, while attempting to
carry the ball, failed misel ably at
every charge. French. the spe. ii demon
OF the Army backfeld, was lucky to
reach the line More often he was
hurled back for loss, and at the end
q the half the Army attack hadn't
made a first down. Worse still, at the
end OF the first quarter the Army had
iost eight yards more than it had
go1ned from the rum ny game.
All this while the Navy was but lit
tie better. Navy backs made few
first downs deep IN their own terri
tory, but they had nothing to show in
the way of scoring play Both lines
or defense, were crashing through and
sp'lllng runners before they took :,
step.
And then, near the close of the third
pellod, just as it locked as though
neither eleven would ever come within
scoring distance two factors upset the
even tide Of combat. The first was the
short and costly punt by French that
gave he Navy possession of the ball in
Army territory. The other vital factor
was that the Army, having played an
extremely weak schedule, was not
ready in football way for any fin
iahed fight, and once the Navy drive
started with consistent punch the
West Point defense broke as if a hur-
ricnne had struck it.
Navy Opens Terrific Attack
The change in the game at this point
was startling and instantaneous. From
a team that had no semblance of an
attack, the Navy suddenly launched d
series of terrific drives through the
Army line. Many Of these assaults
with koehler and Conroy carrying the
ball, were straight thrusts. Others
were deceptive double passes that
found the cadets badly batiled and out
Of position. The fourth period started
with the Navy holding the ball on the
Army's 22-yard line, but few still be-
lleved that any consistent attack could
be maintained after what they had
watched most of the afternoon.
But this time the Navy was in dead
earnest and the Army was breaking
fast. On the first play Koehler ramm ed
his way through the West Point line
for eight yards and Conroy added two
more. Then with the Army expecting
another straight thrust, Il double pass
was handed to Koehler, who knitted his
way through the Army's left wing and
dashed across the line.
The hipmcn, who had maintained
steady roar all afternoon, now broke
into a series of volcanic and vocalistic
spasms. They knew that lone touch
down meant Army dcfcat. the second in
succession, and IL had come through no

this point the Navy TOOK The ball over
after a steady and brilliant advance
The Army line had shown it's strength
defensively against mere power, but
the Navy suddenly switched to decep-
ton. Most of it was rather simple de
cepton, bus it served to fuddle line
which, although strong, WAS not very
smart
The beginning Of the fourth period
found the Nav attack in full swing.
Only one forward pass was thrown. and
that was short one, but all sorts Of
double and delayed passes worked
beautifully, and the Army forwards
charged ahead doggedly to the wrong
point and Navy backs skipped by them.
II was curious accession Of power
which came to the Navy, a team which
had previously shown absolutely moth
ing on attack. 1t seemed to find itself
suddenly when the opportunity offered.
1t was inspired. IN It's own territory
and IN midfield it had been able 10 gain
nothIng, but with 4 goal line in sight
it was full speed ahead
The last yards. which are generally
the most difficult were surprisinelv
easy. From the 7-yard line KoehIer
shook himself free on a double pass
and came over for a touchdown with
hardly & hand laid upon him Later
IN the period the Navy made another
brilliant advance, but lost the ball on
i tumble on the Army's 12-yard line.
The closing minutes of the game
were devoted to the wild and rather
almless forward passing game which
mas featured the late attack Of most oil
tie losing teams this season.

Col. Alexander B. Coke, of the army
general staff corps, arrived here to
day to take up the local angles OF the
War Departments inquiry into re-
sponsibility for the escape of Grover
C. BergdolI from two army guards
here last Friday. Bergdoll at the time
was on an alleged "treasure hunting
furlough.
No trace has been found of the fu-
Gitivc by the federal and civil agent
searching for him. Rumors Of all
sorts reached the federal authorities
today, one Of them to the effect that
I}ergdoll had planned to leave the
country. This was given some Gre
dcncc by Harry B. Pierce division su-

Justice, who received a report from
Atlantic City that the yacht Emmi
C. said to be owned by Bergdoll's 8
mother, had disappeared from it's
mooring there few hours after his
escape. Mr.. Pierce requested the au-
! thoritics at Washington to warn all

\ report also was received that the

could not be confirmed.

cd Plot, Says Palmer
TO INTELLIGENCE CORPS

Washington, May 24,-Both the
army intelligence corps and the De.
partment Of Justice were forewarned
that Grover C. Bergdoll, draft evader
planned an escape from custody, At
torney General Palmer declared in a
statement tonight, disclaiming respon
sibilty on the part of the Department
of Justice for circumstances which
permitted Bergdoll to get away. In
formation that plot with an escape
in view was under way, Mr.. Palmer
said, was first obtained by the army
authorities and was given to them by
his department.
"The Department of Justice received
letter from one of it's agents, dated
April 30," Mr.. Palmer said. "to the
effect that Bergdoll would make ap-
plication for a writ Of habeas corpus
that would take him temporarily out
of the custody of the War Department
and place him in the custody of a
marshal or deputy marshal; that pend
ing these proceedings he would at
tempt to make his escape, or, if al
lowed bail, would jump his bail bond.
