proved the minute man for his team.
Goodson, who has been suffering
with an infected foot. was rushed into
the game last night after the first IL
minutes, which found the Colonials
trailing, to 0, and led his team to
victory.
1t was Goodson who turned the tide
of battle to George Washington in
the waning moments when the
Colonials scored over their old rivals
Catholic University last season.
Bridgewater, led by Cuppe and
Gleck, got its so advantage and at
halftime led by 1916. In the second

The forward line of three Is back

NOW IS DIFFICULT
TO MAINTAIN ALL
Only 1000 Middies to Draw
from Since Enrolment
Was Reduced.

A EN.NPOLIS. December 22.-The
~ Naval Academy engages in II
u sports in competition With
4 n other colleges. As for the past
four years. the student body
has only been about two.thirds of
formerly. it has been quite problem
to maintain the standard in all OF
these branches.
The normal number Of midshipmen
had been about $500, but when the
number of appointments allotted to
each Congressman was reduced from
five to three, this was cut to a little
over 1900. AS members of the plebe
class are not available for varsity
teams. there are only about 1000 mid.
shipmen eligible.
The varsity sports at the Naval
Academy are; Foot ball. soccer. cross
country. basket ball. boxing, wrest.
ling. swimming. water polo, gyn1nas-
tics. fencing, base ball, rowing la
crosse. field ana track, tennis, rife
shooting and bowling.
May Not Drop Any.
A number of these sports We're in
PRODUCED when the student body was
at it's peak, and none has been
dropped, but it has been quite Il struc-
gle to secure enough Of the right kind
Of candidates for the different teams
to maintain them all.
1t Is the policy Of Comdr. Jonas IT.
Ingram to encourage all the sports
as much as is practicable, but situa-
tons have arisen tWhere it is neces.
sary to give some special attention to
certain sports and other branches
have suffered.
Faced by the graduation of nearly
the whole of the regular foot ball team
prior to last season and the necessity
of relying almost entirely upon green
material, 1t was necessary to devote
more time than usual to Spring prac-
tice. and this kept a number of the
gridiron candidates from participation
in the regular Spring branches, no.
tably lacrosse.
At the present time IT is regarded
as of special Importance that every
thing possible should he done to as
sist rowing. The Navy crew will par
ticipate at Poughkeepsie next sum-
mer and also hopes to represent this
country in the Olympics. For this
reason Winter practice will begin
early and a number of the oarsmen
will be prevented from taking part In
the regular winter branches.
Two Sports Hard Hit.
Boxing and wrestling are the sports
which are particularly hit by the ab-
sence of the husky crew men, and
both are having some difficulty in get
ting enough candidates for the heavier
classes. However, it. is regarded as
particularly risky for oarsmen to take
part in these spOrtS
So far as is known here. no other
college maintains so many COMPETE
tive sports at a high standard with
such Small student body as does the
Naval Academy. However. at this
time. there is no intention of dropping
any.
The matter of restoring the original
number of appointments to the men,
bers of Congress. which would en-
large the student body at the Naval
Academy to its former proportions,
is being urged. and. if accomplished,
| it would have beneficial effect upon
| sports at the institution.
