Annapolis by Narrow Margin, Discloses Little Interesting Gridiron Work. By Charlie Brickley. (Harvard's Famous Captain and All-American Back of 1912-13°14) HE forty-five thousand or more football fans attracted to the Polo Grounds on Saturday by the annual contest between the Army and Navy teams could have found little in the game itself to repay them for the drenching they received throughout the two hours and twenty minutes it required to finally determine the outcome of the contest. The manner in which the game was played, having particularly in mind the strategy of attack and defense and the selec- tion and precision of plays, seemed a poor reward, But to offset this deficiency there was the super-en- thusiasm always in evidence at this struggle, and which is given vent to by a volume of organized cheering that ls unequalled ai any other big football game. Much of the poor standard of play was undoubtedly due to the | wretched condition of the field, Players had to wallow through thick mud. ‘Yet it did rot seem that the mud and poor playing conditions were wholly » Tesponsible for the rather unsatisfactory exhibition both teams put up.

The game was slowed up not only by the wretched condttion of the field but both teams would go back for a conference formation before deciding on nearly each and every play. There is no necessity to have 60 many head to head conferences and the practice should have been stopped. For that matter the officials did not seem to have the gume well in hand, and many infractions went unpun- ished.

As it was the play saved him the dis- tance from the point at which he was yout to throw the pass to the ecrim. mage line, a matter of about ten yards: Tom Thorp, who is one of the very best umpires in football, should not have been relegated to the field judge's position.
