Cooney put the ball into play. send ing it sailing to Norton’s waiting arms a bare five yards from Navy’s goal posts. The navy quarter got back six yards before being downed, but after this the ‘midshipmen were forced to punt. In the last moments Of the first half, Wister’s tumble of Spen GERS punt gave the midshipmen their only chance to score. Ingram got out the ball for the navy as it bounded y line. He made a pretty dash of fifteen yards, and on the next play Spen- Ger made five more The midshipmen, however, could not get over Prince tons stubborn defense of their goal line, and Norton was called upon 70 try a goal from the field The kick was blocked and Dillon recovered fifteen yards for Princeton just as time was called for the end of the half.
