ing 70 offer apologies for not
winning Saturday. He says the
score was really 2 TO 0 East side,
but the officials couldn't see It
that way. Tom says his voice ID
all right today, but that II went
dead on Saturday evening. 1t must
have been a great roofing battle.
In passing I want TO say. a word
OF praise for the great defensive
machine that Damage put to-
gether for the battle. The East
Side boys have not been anything
wonderful at defense some times
this season. but In the pinch they
delivered the goods. They de-
serve credit. II takes a good de-
Tense to stop. the Tcemen, when
they are going at their best. Say
won't there be some crowd out
next year FOR the game.
PittW. & j.
When Wash-Jefi faces Pitt at
Pittsburgh next Saturday, they
will face good team In fighting
mood. Tommy Holleran will not
be able 10 play, neither will
COlOnna. having suffered serl-
Gus injury at Penn. But even so,
the Painters will make things
lively for the Red and Black.
Warner has been bringing the
team along slowly and they will
be in top form for the annual
clash against the Presidents
Wash-Jetf will hold slight edge
in the betting, but a fellow might
have profitable afternoon by
taking little short end money on
Pitt. After the wash-Jeff game.
Good Football.
Saturdays game at Blooming
ton, Ind, proved that football as
played in this section OF the coun-
try Is Tar superior TO that offered
10 some sections OF the Middle
West. OF course, Indiana Is far
from being the strongest team In
the Western Conference, but the
Hooslers do have a strong team
which usually managed to hold Its
own with the best other instltu.
tons in that territory produce.
Which is a whole lot more than
they were able 70 do In Saturdays
game against the Varsity.
II, Is only Necessary TO take
into consideration the number If
hrst downs earned BY the. two
'teanfs= 70 ascertain the margin u
West. yirginia's superiority. The
Mountaineers registered twenty
nine OF these 10 one for the
HOLSTERS. Other statistics are
not in proportion TO this, but they
do SHOW that tho Spearsmen out
Chased, their opponents in every
department OF the game.
The Mountalneers played their
usual stellar game on the defense
and once more prevented thel-
goal line from being crossed. So
far only twenty-one points have
been scored against West Vlr-
glnla this fall. Taking into con-
slderation that twelve OF these re-
suited from forward passes and
three from a field goal It is easy
to see that Coach spears has de-
veloped line which merits tho
praise It has been receiving.
Yirginia's touted backfield stars
will get chance to demonstrate
their ware here this Saturday aft
ernoon. Following the example
OF Washington and Lee the Old
Dominion outf { will probably
stress an aerial attack IN this
game. The Varsity smashed the
overhead game as tried by Rut-
gurs, Cincinnati and Indiana, bat
I'm other contests were woetuliy
weak when II came to breaking
Iup such an attack. Virginia Is
reported to have a well developed
air game and It is likely to be
brought into play here.
Fine Spirit,
There was excellent sportsman
ship displayed by the players and
the rooters at the East Side game
Saturday afternoon, and during
the big parade In the evening. Be-
fore the game the Icemen follow
erS had a COW in the line OF
march with a sign: This is no
bull--We'll beat East Side"
After the game the COW was cap
tured by the East Side and later
recaptured by the West Side
bunch. 1t is fine to note the good
spirit exhibited by all those con-
nected with the city champion
ship game.
The Fairmont State Normal
team lost a hard game to Potomac
State on Friday By = count Of 1s
to 0. The boys were rather badly
banged up In the contest. They
also ran into a rather mediocre
referee. who did not seem to
know the rules on downs in re,
