A plunging back should learn to run with his body bent well forward. He gets more drive and power when he takes this position. Of course, he must not be so crouched as to be unable to lift his legs over an op- ponent who has fallen in front of him. The upper illustration shows about the right position. Note that his face is slightly lifted so he can see where he is going. The back who hits the line when running well erect, as pictured in the lower illustration, can undoubtedly obtain greater speed, but he is so exposed to opposing tacklers that he will be easily stopped. Wruez of Pennsylvania, as hard a plunging back as is playing today, makes his ground by running in the position of the back plctured above. He goes so low that tacklers cannot drive their shoulders into his legs or waist. The result iy they try to bear him down to the ground. That enables Kruez to make many yvards after belng tackled. Princeton’s backs this Fall hit the line in the position shown in the lower illustra- tion. They were easily tackled, as their bodies were exposed and de- fensive backs could drive into them and throw them over backward. IRISH WOMEN VICTORS OVER AMERICAN TEAM WELLSLEY, Mass., November 28 P).—The Irish women’s team defeated the all-American team today, 2 to 1, at the close of the women's fleld hockey intercity championship tourna- ment, held under the auspices of the United States Field Hockey Associa- tion.

The freshmen won the first game and the. sophs tied the upper classmen in the second. Neither of these games will count in the inter- class series to be played in’ December. They are pre-season contests in which practically every girl on the four squads was given an op- portunity to play. series the varsity squad will be named and an inter-school schedule arranged which probably will include games with Mount Vernon _Seminary, Holton Arms, Marjorie Webster and Friends School of Baltimore. In preparation for the annual in- door gymnasium exhibition to be given the last week in March, gym classes will begin this week. Games, folk dancing, work with the German horse, jumping with rings and other stunts will be practiced diligently for | the next three months. ‘ Columbia Road tossers won the champlonship of Section 2, Interplay- ground Basket Ball League, yesterday when they swamped the William S.

Kick ball, an interesting combina- tion of base ball and soccer, recently has been introduced at St. Agnes’ School in Baltimore and is being adopted most enthusiastically by the girls. The game is played exactly as in- door baseball with the exception that a soccer ball is substituted for the base ball and the batters kick instead of batting. Also, there are two short- stops instead of one, making the well known “nine” a “ten. Kick ball may be played in either five, seven or nine innings, at the dis- cretion of the coach. It is thought it will prove valuable in teaching the younger girls to handle a soccer ball and at the same-“time, teaching them many principles of base ball. TWO BIG SANDLOT GAMES ARE CARDED HERE TODAY played center most of the season, will be on hand, as well as Webster, an- other good man. Paige, Cross, Plerce and others did good work as change guards this season, and Wilson is a big fellow on the plebe team. Both regular tackles, Nickhorst and Edy, have another year, as has Hard- wick, left end. Bernet, right end, will graduate, and the Navy team will lose a first-class wing man. However, there is much good resrve material for this position, including Willlam- son, Taylor, Coffman, Bagdanovitch and McGinnins, while the plebe team will furnish a good end in Smith. Back of the Mne, the Navy will have Shapley, Hamilton and Caldwell for another year. Flippin, regular left halt and Banks, who played right| half in most of the games, will grad- uate, but the squad is fortunate in losing very few substitute backs. It has a weaith of promising youngsters in Ransford, Millican, Goudge, Born, Broadbent, Condra, Hannegan, Lu- cler and others. Wil Get Good Recruits. The squad will receive a number of very promising recruits from the plebe team of this year, including Liloyd, Woerner, Morse, Parish, Mil- ler, Smith and Wilson. Of these Llovd, Woerner and Morse appear as if they will make the varsity and be valuable adjuncts to it. Lloyd, welging 205 pounds, and very fast, 18 a natural and versatile athlete. He made a great reputation as a schoolboy athlete at Peddie and in fleld and track competitions around New Jérsey, holding the State record for both hurdles and the shotput. Lloyd's position is end, where he is very fast and a strong defensive play- er. He is also a great basket ball player, and excels in many events of the field and track program. There, hardly is a branch of sport in which he has not shown ability. ‘Woerner, who played two years at Swarthmore, s an able tackle weigh- ing over 200 pounds. He is also a great punter and place kicker, being more capable in the art of booting the ball than any player now on the Navy d. S9%% Morse May Be Star. “Red” Morse appears to have a big future as a back. He welghs 185 pounds and is very fast, and was the mainstay of the plebe attack this sea- son. Morse has a big chance to step in the place made vacant by Flip- pin's graduation next June. Many think that he will develop into one of the Navy's great backs of all time. Of the others from the plebe team, Parish is a good running back, Mil- ler a fine passer. Smith a good de- League Park and the Mercurys meeting the Waverleys at WITH the Mohawks tackling the Maryland Collegians at American Fifteenth and H streets northeast, sandlot foot ball fans are offered a choice between two promising clashes on this afternoon’s grid menu. The Hawks will be settling a long standing argument in their game with the Baltimoreans. It will be remembered that the teams battled to a scoreless tie earlier in the season on a field that was hardly navigable. The Collegians sport a backfield that compares well with any eleven in this locality. It includes Solon Baker, & former Army player; Smith of Western Maryland, Branner of University of Maryland and Earl Baker, a Hopkins man. Landy, Schact and Middleton of Hopkins, Red Ward of the 3d Corps squad, Kopp of West- ern Maryland and Helms of Navy are slated for places in the line. This will be the Mohawks’ last game before meeting the Mercurys in a District title clash next Sunday, and every man will be given an op- portunity to show his abilities in or- der that Coach Hegarty may select the best line-up for the game with the champions. The Mercury eleven tackles the fast-traveling Waverly crew that put the skids under the Knickerbockers last week. AS a victory over the Me curys may mean a chance at the city crown, Manager Frank Kersey will have his best team on the fleld. The Mercury goal line has not been crossed this season. Vic Gauzza’s Nationals go to Fort Humphreys today to meet the sol- dler eleven coached by Ed Garbisch. The Engineers held the Mohawks to a 6-to-0 count, played the Mercurys to a scoreless tie, and only last Thurs- day defeated the Apaches, 18 to 0. Coach Johnny Bleir requests all play- ers to meet at Second street and Mas- sachusetts avenue northeast, at 12 o'clock. Virginia fans are looking for a spirited scrap today at Clarendon when the Clarendon Lyons take on the Alexandsa Tigers. The game is listed for 3 o'clock. Yorke Preps, winners of three tilts and parties to three tie games, will attempt to hand the Mercury Junlors their first defeat today at 11 o'clock on the Monument Grounds. Friendship Athletic Club players will practice at Fifth and L streets at CARNEGIE TECH WINS OVER LEHIGH, 36 T0 0 By the Associated Press. PITTSBURGH, Pa., November 28. —Carnegie Tech ended its foot ball season here today with a 36-0 victory cver the Lehigh eleven. ' Capt. Beede scored three of the Skibo's touchdowns, the first one to be scored by the hlisky fullback coming as the result of a 60-yard run. Max Bastian, speedy quarterback, playing his last game, scored once and Dcenahoe,' left halfback, scored two tcuchdowns. The point after touch- down was missed in each instance. The 19-yard line was the closest the visitors could get to the Carnegie goal, Lehigh working its way to this point in the second quarter after Carnegle had made its third touchdown.
