The thoasside of people who moved

wasn't any doubt about that. There

but it wasn't s marker to tbs yeU

From a scoreboard standpoint it was
?ome gams. Just as quickly as s play
was made st tbs Palo Grounds that
fast would be flashed, and a little elec?
tric bulb told what bad happened. Tbs
lights danced all over the field, on and
around the bases, while three set in a
row showed bow many were down.
Anybody who knows anything about
a ball game didn't have to ask bis
neighbor what a signal meant.
Many business men and jaany clerks
were a bit lata In tbe afternoon. They
filed into Bank Street or Into Capitol
Square to spend a moment: tuey no/a;
sot away under two Innings, and after!
eseb inning hundreds of folk raced
away and hundreds rsced back. Parti
of the multitude stuck It out to tbs

Tbe police worked bard to> keep tbs

if every hack driver sad every dray?
man is town bad some mission in Bank

without getting weary. - When the
gams was over the crowd fled- just

plague, .having suddenly thought that
there was work to be doss elsewhere.
But it would have stock had the BBBsj
gone to nineteen innings.
There was class to tbs rooting. Oass,
for Instance, whoa a light on tbs score?

brief delay before tbs Beat signal
flashed. "Aw t'row dar ball la." yelled

The gsme was msrred by consider?

being penalised for offside plays and

a decided improvement in form, fum?

Western Maryland offered a variety of
trick plays, but on only two or three
occasions were they e gabled to gain
with thorn. They were particularly
good in executing the long "scissors'*
pass, st one time gaining about thirty
yards by using- It.
Only straight football was used by
Washington and t>e. their principal
gains being effected by wide end runs
and line drives. Peeplee eras especially
good in smashing the line, on one oc?
casion breaking through the line and
running forty yards Dor a touchdown.
