Darley and Cook also did good work. ST. JOHN'S, Og WASHINGTON, 0 After a very tiresome trip of six hours St. .lohn's encountered W'ashington at Chestertown and played them to a standstill. During the First half the ball kept close to the middle of the field. One dropkick was tried by VVashington, but it was a failure. In the quarter Washington worked the ball to St. John's fifteen-yard line, only to be held for downs. Then it was that St. John's started their march toward VV. C.'s goal. With the ball on W. C.'s half-yard line a score seemed certain, but by hard luck Plasnig fumbled and VVashington , . , i 534 ,. X- . 15 ? Zi ,t ff LZ il' 11 fr Ni 0 Fi Q. P1 T JL lkw 9 D1 5. V. ., X, v AC.

St. Mary's and liuker carried it back Fifteen yards. St. john's held, and Euker punted on the fourth down to Darley, who was downed in his tracks. On line plays St. John's planted the ball on Mt. St. Mary's fifteen-yard line. At this point, however, when St. -lohn's had just made first down in two plays and in two more plays had made seven more, the ball was given to Mt. St. Mary's on downs, due to the fact that Mr. Sayler had not seen that St. John's had made hrst down, the lines having been moved by the head linesman. Mt. St. Mary's then kept the ball out of the danger zone for the rest of the half. In the fourth quarter Mt. St. Mary's carried the ball down the Held to St. AIohn's five-yard line. St. John's held, and on fourth down Mt. St. Mary's fumbled, but recovered the ball, making it first down. On a neatly- mapped-out crossbuck Mt. St. Mary's scored, but failed to kick goal. Plasnig and Andrew starred for St. john's, while Rogers and liuker starred for Mt. St. Mary's. . ST. JOHN'S, 0g P. M. C., 6 For the third time, St. John's lost by one touchdown. This time P. M. C. was the victor by blocking and recovering a punt behind our goal line in the first quarter. The rest of the game was decidedly in St. -Iohn's favor, as we made twenty-four first downs to P. M. C.'s sixteen, but each time we were within striking distance the fatal punch was not delivered. The game was 196

Neither side got within striking distance in the third period. Near the end of the game Brown tried a dropkick from near the middle of the held, but Coyner, for St. John's, blocked it, and St. John's recovered. After a few rushes the game ended with the ball in St. john's possession on VV. C.'s thirty-yard line. Jarman, Darley, Andrew and Collinson played excellent ball for St. john's, while W. Wallace, Frampton and Brown played best for VVashington. W. C. made four first downs and St. John's made fifteen. ST. JOHN'S, 6g M. S. C., 31 Maryland State College scored the greatest number of points in the history of our football relations when she defeated us thirty-one to six. M. S. C. kicked off. St. John's was unable to gain, and Andrew kicked to Smith. From this point M. S. C. started a steady march to the goal line, but failed on the kick-out. M. S. C. again kicked off and St. -Iohn's was again unable to gain. It looked as though it would be another touchdown for them, but our team held like a wall on our five-yard line. By the ball being carried alternately by our backheld, it was placed within a few yards of the goal-line. Here State held twice, but on the next attempt Heise carried the ball across for our first score. In the second quarter, State scored two touchdowns by the good work of Brewer and Fletcher. The third quarter did not register points for either side, St. John's being on the aggressive throughout.
