While the army and navy football
game today wa probably one of the
most exciting ever played between the
two institutions, it Ma dimply a tide
how to the social football event of the
eaon.
Twenty the thoutand people aaw the
game. From all section of the United
SUU- came spetrtators, who ordinarily
would not travel a score of miles to
see a football content All this was
doubt k-wt brought about by the fact
that President Koooerelt was present
The teams were evenly matched, and
though dahing runs were few, Torney
of the army got away for a pretty 3.1
yard run, and at another, lWler, of the
navy, electrified the opectators by al
most getting away from the army
eleven. Near the eloe of the tirt hulf,
the army gut the ball on the navy's
35 Vurtl line, oil an exchuiigi- of kick.
Howard, who kicked tery brilliantly
for AnnuMili-, M-nt tlie spiral hijjli in
the air. An eutiily win.l carried the
ball Iwck toward tlie iiaxy pml mi in;
dUtann, it traveled not iimre than live i
yards. Frmu thi point the Wet :
I'oiuter carried the bull ocr for a
touchdown. I
A Wett Point player wa reK,nible '
for the tie jfanic. tHi an exchange of
kicks, within ten minute of the cIim
of the name, the ruy had the ball'
near the mid Held. Howard sent a beau
tiful punt back of lbs Wet Point kobI. !
As the navy eleven started down tiie
field, an army man wa detected by
the umpire, holding one of the navy
players.
As a penalty, the ball was brought I
back and given to the navy on the
army's thirty ysrd line. An exchange
of kicks followed, n-Milting in the
navy's favor, and with a lat desperate
effort that could not be denied, the
milors carried the hall oxer the army
