carp in Stellar Role
Johnny Earp. the former Episcopal
Academy star, was, the brilliant per-
former Of the afternoon. The slippery
little halfback fairly scintillated. He
ran the ends, caught forward passes
ANA pushed his way through the Haver-
ford line for gains time and again.
or OnlV thpt bnt 40 Huurnl nrnmi-
ncntIy in the scoring. Twice he kicked
goals from the field, the first time from
the 3I-yard line. the ball going squarely
between the uprights, and the second
time shooting one inches over the cross
bar from the 4-yard line.
In addition. he scored a touchdown
shortly after the fourth period opened
when he CirCled the visitors left end for
l. yards and the score. Once he ran
back n punt for 10 yards and several
times Sbot around the Haverford ends
for gains of 20 to - yards
To Jackson, the left end Of Swarth-
more, goes much of the glory Of the
victory. His play all afternoon was as
brilliant as any seen on a SwarthmOre
team in years. He smeared the Haver-
ford interference, caught forward passes
and got under punts like IIienie Miller
did in all his glory at Penn.
If Jackson had been playing on a
big college eleven during the season
he would give the best ends in the
country a run for all American honors.
He scored one of the seven Swarth-
more touchdowns after receiving a for
ward pass from Asplundh.
The last named proved himself 70 he
! one of the best punters in college ranks
| by his work Saturday. On one Occa-
! sion he sent the pellet down the field
| for IS yards.
! Brown, one Of the heroes in Haver-
! ford = defeat, also pulted well. his best
effort being q low rolling punt that
went for 81 yards.
! Sangree Great in Defeat
! Captain Nate Sangree, the fourth Of
| that name 10 play on Haverford
! eleven, played a great game. but he was
! powcrlCSS against the mighty Swarth-
! more machine. Wilbur. Paxson, Will
! bur and Allen, all showed that they
were possessed Of fight by their work
| against the Garnet.
| The entire Swarthmore team dis
! played It's knowledge Of the gridrOn
| game from the start, the line partiCu-
! larly showing 20 brilliant advantage.
Bill Ward, the former Penn tackle, in
! hlS first year ns n coach, turned ont a
! line that compares tavOrabIy with some
! of rhe best in the East
! Both Extensively and defensively they
| showed the same excellent brand of
| football ns they did against Cornell
! early in the season. From tackle to
{ tackle. Haverford was unable 10 gain
more than < yards all afternoon, so
! strong was the defense.
, 1t was announced this morning that
the Garnet would not play Springfield
