The pass carried the receiver
to the zone guarded by the de
fensive wings, and then it became
a matter of sheer speed. In the

Georgetown had trouble in kick,
ing the ball beyond midfield.
Meglen was sadly off form in
this period. Twice the Terps
rushed the leather inside Of the
Hoyas' 10-yard stripe.

Guckeyson's 90-yard run for a
touchdown in the third period won
the game for Maryland, but
Georgetown came back in way
that indicated ultimate victory
for the Blue and Grey. This
promise, of course, never quite
materialized. A fourth down
tumble resulting from a bad pass
from center halted a Georgetown
advance inside of the 20-yard line.
Georgetown had a shade in the
fourth, but all of that was imma-
terial.

The lying Terrap1n was Bill
Guckeyson, the toast and boast
of Bethesda, and in his tWinkling
toes was found the difference be-
tween the victor and vanquished
of Saturdays brilliant battle.
Georgetown marched to a
touchdown, crunching off II yards
in one irresistible advance. Rugged
power and aerial skill were mixed
in that thrilling hike. The Hoyas
made more first downs than their
opponents, but Guckeyson raced
140 yards in two brilliant touch
down runs, and these were suffi-
cient unto the demands of the day.
In a year when back field stars
are found throughout the land.
you are not going to find finer
ball carrier than this boy from
just across the District Line. He
has all the speed that football de-
mands, and he has the cunning to
make sheer speed more effective.
He can feint and change pace. He
can dodge and hip slip with the
best.
On Saturday, he added frequent
dashes of 10, is and longer runs
to his total yardage. He passed
and he punted. Do not overlook
that last item. 1t was Bills su-
periority over Joe Meglan, CO.
captain of the Hoyas that played
a part in Maryland's victory.
An AlI-Star
When the all-star teams of the
year are selected Guckeyson may
not be found among the elect. but
that will not worry Maryland Co
horts. Guckeyson is good enough
for them, or for anyone else.
1t was known that Maryland's
chief threat lay in its wide flung
attack. 1t showed throughout the
season that the Terps could not at
tack with real power along the
inside lanes. But despite this.
Guckeyson was able to get loose
on a number of occasions, and
once, running from Scrimmage he
cleared Georgetown'S left end for
a score.
There was another vulnerable
point in the Georgetown defense,
but Maryland never was able to
cross the line through the air.

Season

ANNAPOLIS, Nov. U.s. The
football game between the Army
and Navy teams in Philadelphia
Saturday is the climax of the
athletic rivalry of the year be-
tween the service academies, in
which the Army now leads by
3 to 2.
During 1895, the Soldiers have
won against the. Sailors in bas-
ketball, baseball and track, and
lost in lacrosse and gymnastics.
For the Army, a football victory
would mean decisive leadership
for the year, while for the Navy
it would even matters in actual
contests and give it an edge in
general standing.
The game will be the thirty
sixth in a series which started
As years ago and which has been
interrupted on several occasions.
With 10 victories to 13, three
games being ties, the Army
stands well ahead in the series.
The Navy has something new
this year in football practice
two teams which play different
styles of football. Both will be
used in the Army game. The
teams may be styled major"
and spread" the latter getting
its name from the greater space
between the linemen. It has not
only different style of play,
but different coaches from the
major team and is a distinct
unit in itself. This team started
in the Pennsylvania and Colum-
bia games and played in part of
the Notre Dame and Princeton
contests.

Thanksgiving Day intersectional
game with George Washington

sion to North Dakota State mid
way of the 1884 season. did not
taste defeat again until last
Saturday when Western Mary
lands Green Terrors upset them
at Baltimore, 13 to 7.
Nearly all of George Washing
tons players, together with
Coach "PoSsum Jim" Pixlee,
watched Saturdays contest.
Size, Speed Impress
They were impressed with
North Dakota's size, speed and
general ability. They saw the
Sioux, or Nodaks, as they also
are called, completely outplay the
Terrors in the second half after
Western Maryland had taken the
lead with a two-touchdown at
tack in the second quarter.
But it wasn't necessary for the
Colonials to scout" the Sioux to
get their impressions. A study
of records shows that North Da-
kota is capable of causing trouble
for any mans eleven. Earlier in
the season the Sioux defeated st.
Louis U. and only last Saturday
the Billikens trounced De Paul,
which had snapped Catholic us
winning streak. st. Louis previ-
ously had held Marquette to a
one-touchdown margin.
Tie Game
Also, the Sioux 1885 record
shows tie games with South Da-
kota State, which beat Wisconsin,
1877, and with North Dakota
State which held Minnesota's all
conquering Gophers to a 26-7
score. Thus, scores indicate that

ably with teams of the Western
