  - that term can De maze dppiCdpie a to,t ball crowd. Raliying gallantly after its opponent rad rolled up nine points, Catholc University swept to a l1-to-9 victory esterday over it’s greatest foot ball ‘ival, George Washington University. II the big Brookland stadium. IL was through the air that the Cardinails trfumphed. They offered in Ray Foley and Bill Harvey as fine pass ing pair as has been seen on WASH ington gridiron this season. Foley did the heavfng and Harvey the catching of the passes that thrilled the more than 10000 attending the contest. One Of these fine passes late in the second period was good for Sc yards and put Cath olic University within few yards of the Colonial goal. over which Manfreda carried the ball few moments later for his teams first touchdown. Foley drop-kicked the extra point. In the third quarter a 20-yard pass worked by this pair accounted for the Cardinals second touchdown and Foley again booted the extra point. Foley also completed the scoring with a 30-yard goal from field in the fourth period. / All Of George Washington’s points We’re the results Of Catholic Cniversity fImbles. IN the first period Foley, back for q fourth-dOwn punt from his 12-yard line, fooled a pass from center and was downed in his tracks. The Colonials could make no headway by rushing, so Ivan Stehman kicked a goal from placement on the 19-yard line. In the second period Foley let a punt trickle through his hands and Walker of the Colonials, recovering the ball. ran 43 yards to a touchdown. Stehman’s try for the extra point was blocked. Until he was forced to leave the game by an injury Stehman played well for the Colonials, while Henry Sapp also starred for this team. But these men could not bear all of the burden of coping with the Cardinals fine overhead attack. Runs of 80 yards and 20 yards to touchdowns by Corpl. Jim Levey gave the Marines a 13-to-0 victory over Washington University yesterday at st. Louis. The Quantico halfback got into the fray late in the second period to replace Ed Pugh, Washington boy, who had been hurt in scrimmage. At all other times Washington put up q splendid defense against the Sea Sol diers. Cornell went down to Philadelphia yesterday and carried the battle through three quarters to what seemed An almost certain victory over Penn sylvania. but 1t was impossible for it to maintain the lead and in the final quarter Penn swept everything before it and tied up the count, the game fa 6n IanV 1aCf kind of a game for the Dobie coached eleven to fail to win after it had gone 50 we’ll through three periods. Virginia and North Carolina engagged in q struggle that was tradisional of Virginia-North Carolina games. Both elevens struggled along without scoring touchdown, but the Virginians got over a field goal that gave them the contest by margin Of 3 points. It was Capt. Charley Mack all, son of DR.. Louis Mackall, Wash. ington boy and graduate Of Western High School, who booted the ball across. Incidentally, it might be mentioned in connection with former Washington high schools graduates that Thomas, Tech High graduate, made both Mary land touchdowns against Hopkins, and Mike Stevens, Western High man, made the field goal. Other Washing ton high school graduates who took part as members of the Maryland eleven were: Wondrack, guard; Adams, tackle; Kessler, quarterback, and Parsons, fullback. Virginia Polytechnic Institute scor. ed two touuchdowns in the opening quarter Of yesterdays game with Virginia Military Institute and the lat. ter got one, which was all the scoring done. Two long runs by Peake gave V. p. I. its scores. Brown had its troubles with Col gate and the best it could get out of the game was a tie, 10 to 10. 1t was the first time this season that Brown had failed to win, and it’s hope of championship went glimmering with the failure. Alabama found little difficulty beat int Georgia in its final game, thus going through another season without a defeat. In all probability the Alabama team again will make the trip to the West Coast for a game with some eleven Of that section on the occasion Of the annual Tourna. ment of Roses at Pasadena.

Eighty thousand persons saw the battle, the largest crowd that ever saw a football game in this city. All tickets were five dollars each and it is believed that the gate estimated at nearly 100000, was the largest ever taken in at a football game. Each team scored touchdown and a field goal The spectacular plays of the game were a forward pass, Balderston to Molinet, which gained 80 yards for Cornell and led to her touchdown, and a, IS yard run by FullDdCk NdSCOlOIilS, I’ll L tlluSS u vania, for a touchdown. Molinet scored Cornelrs touchdown and Captain Carey kicked the point after touchdown and made a place ment kick in the third period. Paul Schulz kicked Pennsylvania field goal. PennsylVania’s touchdown was the only one she scored in the last four contests and for the third successive game 1t was Scull’s toe that either won or saved Pennsylvania from defeat.
