through their easy conquest of Ford

and decisively blasted this afternoon

Georgetown made seven touchdowns

Eagles Never Threatened.
While in every period Georgetown
scored and kept the ball in enemy
territory all the time. the Eagles never
got nearer than 40 yards to the wash

the remotest Canger that the Blue
and Gray would be scored upon.
Amazing effectiveness with the for

fallible receiving featured an attack
that swept the Eagles up and down
the field in series of nonotonous
PROFESSIONS. And the Georgetown
score would have been greater stl'i
but for the stub .orn defense put up
by the Eagle frontier on three spa
rate occasions on the very verge OF
the goal line.
All the prophecies sent out by
Washington correspondents as TO the
ability of the Georgetown backfeld
were verified. The game was hardly

The work Of the entire George
