Dickinson vs Stale College
On the 7th inst., our team departed on the early
train for Dickinson, to play the second match.
Dickinson took choice of goal, State College the
ball. The "TJ " trick was played well by State
College and about io yards were gained. Foster's
desperate playing was wonderful ; when the ball
was secured by him, Dickinson would centre its
whole team upon him. His endurance surpassed
that of any player on either team. Our rush-line
was good, but the general team work was loose,
and the ball was not played fast enough when near
the goal line. Twice State College was within a
few feet of the goal line but failed to secure a
touch-down owing to hesitancy in handling the
ball. The first half ended with a score of 12 to o
in favor of Dickinson. Once in the second half,
State College had the ball within 3 feet of Dickin
son's goal line, but in the failure to snap it back
soon enough, Dickinson took advantage of it and
gained. Throughout the game the ball was played
slowly by both sides. Holly made several good
runs for Dickinson, also Wallace. The cause of
improper drill was the secret of defeat. Strong
team work was badly needed at critical points.
in this half Dickinson added four points. Fisher
and Hildebrand, our heaviest rushers, were badly
injured and could not play in the following
game with Lehigh. Prof. Cleaver, referee ; Prof.
Durell Umpire. •
Lehigh vs Stale College
Lehigh got choice of goal. The "V " trick
was again worked, but only about 7 yards gained.
In the first scrimmage, Reber muffed the ball and
Lehigh gained about 25 yards. This was espe
cially unfortunate in the beginning of the game,
as it carried the ball toward State College's goal.
In this half, 26 points were gained by Lehigh.
Loose playing in the beginning of the game had
its effect again. In the second half, a touch
down was soon made by Lehigh. After which,
our team got down to solid work and nothing
more was added. The features of the game were
Mock's brilliant run and Foster's fine playing.
Had Fisher and Hildebrand not been injured,
a stronger game would have been played.
