DIGNIFIED FACULTY
BITE THE DUST
Seniors Trample Beloved
Profs; Score, 1879
DR.. MANNS ABLELEADER

The faculty football team of the
University of Delaware, aided and
abetted by three or four members of
the Rehabilitation Division, and led
by none other than the we'll known
resident of Park Place, DR.. Thomas
F. Manns, trotted out upon the his
toric soil of Frazer Field Monday af-
ternoon and engaged in mortal battle
with the Senior Glass team. AS "the
Shades of Night" were almost down,
the game ended and the figures stood
Seniors, 1S; Faculty, 8.
To delve into the technical details
of the delightful entertainment would
entail the knowledge of an expert.
However, those townspeople who saw
the game were unanimous in their
praise for the way IN which Capt.
Nanns handled his team.
The most amazing plays were un-
covered by the Faculty. Chief among
them was the Floor Walkers Rush,
usually directed in the general direc-
tion of the center. In preparing for
this play, cap" Manns delivered
eleven separate and distinct lectures
to his hirelings, then lined up with
three men in the backfield, seven in
the line and one counting the cash
customers on the sidelines.
The play usually went off with a
bang and ended with crash. Occa-
sionall, the bang was omitted and the
crash came first. More often than
either, however, Cap Manns would
collect the ball on his mighty chest,
glance around for his interference
which always seemed to be otherwise
engaged, then, scorning aid, true
Spartan that he is, the eminent DR..
would wade gleefully through the
line and sink to earth like stricken
liner. The lone touchdown for the old
. timers came when Cannonball Buttles
scampered over at least sixty yards of
green sward after recovering fum-
Bile and planted the oval between the
= posts.
The youthful drive and modern
; knowledge of the game displayed by
= the Seniors finally overcame the mar
j, velous jump shifts, off-tackle criss

: Faculty. They fought good fight
:. however, and although slightly th'

PATTERSON PLAYS WELL

The Delaware City High School
football team tasted defeat at the
hands of the Dover High aggrega-
tion last Friday afternoon at the
formers grounds, but only lost after
bitter battle throughout the four
periods. The final, score was TO.
Dover scored its touchdown in the
first few minutes of the fracas when
a Canal tumble gave them the ball
within scoring distance. Two clever
forward passes did the necessary
damage. From then on the battle re-
solved itself into a nip and tuck
struggle, with Delaware City having
slight edge on their Down-State
rivals.
The all round work of Patterson
for the losing team stood out like
penny in the collection plate. He was
given the ball on almost every second
play and he always knew what to do
with it. He personally accounted for
most of the ground gained by the
Canal boys. The lineup:

position Before Grabbing
Victory
Ready for Laurel High

The Alumni team furnished the at
traction at the last of the Friday
Matinees so successfully staged this
Fall by the Newark High School. All
the "boxes" were filled and consider
able applause filtered through the
smoke of battle from the sideline
seats. In fact it was very pleasing
show for everyone but the Alumni.
The old timers put up an unusually
good game and pushed the Wilson
machine throughout the game and
made it travel in high gear to win.
During the course of the afternoon,
High School made two separate and
distinct touchdowns, much to the de-
light of the rooters and the discom-
fort of the Alumni. c. Hopkins got
away for long dash for the first
score, while Henry Townsend gathered
in a forward pass for the final
counter. Hoffecker, Schwartz, Tom
Armstrong, and Cook did their best
to uphold the slumping Alumni, anc
rallied sufficiently to stop any furthe,
encroachment upon their goal line.
From now on, Coach Wilson will
spend a part of each day working
