Jesse James, indicating that the
blocked punt had been very dis
astrous from a West Virginia
standpoint. Lehigh had no often
sive, at least they used none, thai
could do a thing against the West
Virginia defense-they just had
one chance, and they made a tie
Twice within the first ~ min
utes of play West Virginia had the
ball IN the very shadow OF the Lee
high goal posts and first down, but
"BlZ" Dawson, who was field gen
eral, elected for some unknown rea..
son to bang away at the center OF
the Lehigh line, which would not
give q fraction OF an inch In u
pinch instead OF trying plays that
had been successful in advancing
the ball practically the entire
length of the field, and the chances
for a decisive victory went bLngo.
After the second period, LehIgh
fought to hold the count even and
was successful, due 10 the bratny
manner In which Harrington direct
ed the visiting warriors. In the
first half Lehigh had some trouble
with West Virginia's forward pass
ing, but they evidently found a plan
during the rest period to check II,
as II was more or less consistently
broken up In the third and fourth
quarters. The Varsity however had
an end run formation that was sue
cesBful but as this was thrown into
the discard for some mysterious
reason the visitors did not have to
worry about It.
HeraIded as u team with intri.
cate formations and startling open
play work, Lehigh was a keen dis
appointment as she showed nothing
at all along this method OF attack,
nor had she any chance through
the West Virginia line or around the
ends. But Lehigh was composed
of men who fought hard all the
way, could follow the ball, made a
stonewall defense In crisis and
had the happy plan OF making the
best OF things.
Going against a combination like
this and exhibiting mediocre judg.
ment on plays at critical times, the
result of the game, while very dis
appointing, Is nothing more than
could be expected under the cir
oumstances. When touChdOwns are
literally thrust upon team and
that team refuses to accept the
nomination, tic score is really
wonderful. II Lehigh had been
possessed OF the ground gaining
power OF West Virginia they would
have rolled up enough points to do
them 4 decade.
Such is life in football.

Come Here This Week
for Return Match

Fridays miserable weather fail

the few Fairmont golfers who
journeyed to the Clarksburg Coun-
try club for the second inter-city
golf match of the season.
The combination OF rain and
slow car service, caused by the
mechanical difficulty at cayenne
transformer station. delayed the
arrival of the golfers at Clarks-
burg until three o'clock Of the az
ternoon. but they we're met by a
most cordial yet heartless group Of
Clurkshurg players. who quickly
proceeded TO show them how golf
should be played.
Sad 10 relate. not single player
from Fairmont defeated his
ClarksburE opponent. The final
score so heavily favored Clarks-
burg, 1t is better not to relate the
exact details.
The ClarksburEers proved them
selves excellent hosts when they
served n delicious supper following
the golf matches. And at the con-
clusion there were other festivities
which made a decided hit with the
men of both clubs.
This week the Clarksburg team
will visit Fairmont for their sec
ond match this year with local
golfers. it will be the third inter-
city match and if fair weather con-
tinues throughout the month Fair
mont probably will make their sec
ond trip to the ncighboring city
to play the fourth lnter-city match.
