Fo!aCeN Is Confident
From a Special Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 25-The football
squad which will battle for the Navy
against the Army in New York on
Saturday was given a most enthusi-
astic au revoir this afternoon The
players and coaches were dragged to
the station by the midshipmen, and
quarter of an hour was spent in short
speeches from the players and their
mentors. Coach Folwell told the mid
shipmen that such support made them
feel they must beat the Army.
This morning the Navy boat led two
Army mules in an impromptu process
sion around the academy grounds. The
bareback experts from the regiment
rode the mules, and the procession was
beaded by the academy jazz band. 1t
Will also be at the Polo Grounds.
Navy scouts have kept close watch
on the Army team, and much of it's
play is known here. Assistant Coach
John Wilson has seen the Army in
nearly all of its games, while Lieuten-
ant Commander w. A. Richardson saw
it in action against Notre Dame. Both
believe that it is a strong team, but
that the Navy, at its best, can beat it.
Twenty-Five games have been played
between the service schools. The Army
is one ahead, having won eleven, while
the Navy has won ten and the other
was a tie.

continued, snow covering the "Plains'
this morning. This necessitatcd send
ing the men into the big riding hall,
and the signal drill lacked speed and
smoothness. The final kicking drill
was also hampered through lack OF
overhead space.
In spite of the weather handicap, the
soldiers are cheerful and followers of
the team are hopeful that it will make
a good showing on the Polo Grounds
Saturday. Amy folk conccde the
Navy some advantage in tho line but
il is felt that the West Pointers have
4 strong bacl.lield in Smythe, Lawrence
and French. Wilhde is a fair quarter

Bows TO Detroit
By II to @ Score

DETROIT, Nov. 25.-The plunging
ability Of two back(leld men, who
smashed holes in the Rutgers defense
almost at will, gave the University of
Detroit football team a 27 to 0 victory
over Rutgers here this afternoon
Two Of Detroit's touchdowns were
the result Of consistent line drives
which carried the bail to within stlik-
ing distance Of the Rutgers goal line
Forward passes completed the scoring
attempts. The other two followed
spectacular plays and were more or
less unexpected.
Fitzgerald and McKenna, Detroit
ball into Rutgers territory in the
opening period The same two men
completed the forward pass which
made the first score. In the third
period a similar advance netted a sim
liar result. except that Curtin, Detroit
left end. received the forward pass be-
hind the Rutgers goal line.
In the second period McKenna re
ceived a punt on the Rutgers 30-yard
line and dashed across for a touchdown.
Curtin scored the final touchdown in
the fourth period when he recovered a
blocked punt and worked his way ten
yards across the Rutgers goal
The aerial attaci, OF the invaders
failed to materialize successfully and
in straight football they were power
less against the Detroit defense. With
the exception Of plays following punts
which carried the ball into Detroit
territory, the bail was neld steadily on
the Rutgers half of the gridiron. In
the third period Rutgers had its single
scoring chance when it recovered q
tumble on Dctroit's 10-yard line, but
it was unable to crash through the RED
