    HARVARD MAKES GOOD AGAINST WEST POINT A Blocked Kick Enables the Crimson to Triumph Over Army, 6 to 0. WEST POINT. October pa blocked kick and a 4o-yard run. TO the goal line in the third period by Capt With ington of Harvard and a goal following was the only score in the game with West Point today. The cadets, who two weeks ago trounced Yale to 3, could make no Roadway against the Crimson and played entirely on the defensive. But the cadets did some great work in this line and as the last periods drew to a close the cadets, already beaten, saved second touch down by a grand stand on their = yard line and got the ball on downs. The entire play was in West Point ter ritory and the cadets never had the ball nearer the Crimson goal than the middle of the field. Few spectacular plays We’re used and only four forward passes were tried. Harvard resorted To straight plunginS foot ball and did not uncover any trick plays except in the last half Lineup:
