without a moments hesitation. c.
lined up and started. On the first
nree plays 1t knocked off a first
pwn. and then punted. Just few
inutes after. when it got the ball
its own 35-yard line on a return
lnt, it lined up. and De Nault, on
ide-end run, ran 25 yards around
FATTY, and then repeated it for 10
ound Supplee, putting the Mary
nderS right down near their own
pal.
c. L. Supporters AAtOnixhed.
That was SO unexpected in C. US
Tn stands that for a moment the
hole place was silent. then the
rooklanders awoke to the fact that
heir team was putting up the game
the year and carrying the battle
1ccessfuliy to foe that was locke
pom as too powerful for such an eff
brt to be made against it. When that
ealization came the .Brookland
ands went wild and stayed wild un-
/ the final whistle told them their
lam had wound up the struggle with
onors even, and had done the unex-
ected
De Nault may not go down in c.
IS athletic history as the most bril-
liant performer that ever wore their
folors on the gridiron, but If he is
hot placed among the very few whose
records for single individual achieve
nents stand out as a result of what
he accomplished yesterday a great
mistake will be made and honorS that
Should belong to him withheld It
was he who gained ground, it was he
who made tackles in the pinches, it
vas he who directed c. US plan of
Pffense and defense, and. while this
refects in no way on the help he got
rom his teammates, his work as an
Individual and as a leader was all
that could be desired.
c. L. Presents Game Team.
1t was a game c. L. team that took
he field. team that had in its line
3bp men who have been wanting all
season an opportunity to show what
fhey could do for their school And
yesterday they got that opportunity.
Rnd made good with a vengeance
p'hey did not win. it is true, but they
fid the next best thing and got a
p-to-0 game.
The first half of the game wound up
with Maryland practically stopped.
'The Old Liners. poorly directed and
showing little that even remotely re-
fsembled good foot ball, were stumb-
Ping along. holding their own more
through the brute strength Of some of
fheir linemen than through any intelli-
gent effort to circumvent the attack Of
fheir opponents or to get going an at
lack of their own. c. u. made three
[1rst downs in the opening half against
! fwo by the Old Liners.
Maryland Rallies Fall Short.
In the second half, Maryland be-
gan to wake up to the fact that Ii
|was being battled to Il StandstiIl and
tried to get going. Once CT twice it
gave some signs of ability, but as
quickly cast aside any opportunity
it thus gained. Three times in the
final quarter it was driving down to
the opposing goal line, but once fum-
bIed and twice had passes intercept
ed. In fact, just as the game closed
the Brookland eleven intercepted a
pass and got the ball on their own
2O-yard mark.
In the closing moments Of the game
Pugh and Osborne, regular Maryland
halfbacks, who have been out for
some time, were shot in. Ground was
gained, but as far as scoring was con-
cerned their efforts were non-produc-
tive.
Fitzgerald. Regan and Moore were
the highlights in the Catholic Uni
versity line. AS a matter of fact, the
best that Maryland linemen have ever
done was never better than the play
OF these men. 1t was a fighting c. U.
team that took the field and 1T was a
team that still was fighting when the
game ended. The whole eleven fought
good fight and well deserves all the
good things that may be said Of it.
