STATE DEFEATS U. W. VA. In a very interesting game the Varsity defeated the University of West Virginia team here last Sat urday. The visitors came with a good reputation and the uncertain ty felt by many with regard to the result drew a large crowd to Bea ver Field. The teams lined up shortly after 3 p. m. The West Virginians kicked off and got down the field very quickly. State gained but the ball changed hands and see-sawed back and forth for some time before Smith went over for the first touch down. Forkum missed the goal. He then kicked off well down the field to Hineman. The Virginian made a very neat pass to Capt. Mar tin and continued across the field. It took the team some time to dis cover Martin well on his way for a STATE COLLEGE, PA., OCT. 20, 1904. touchdown. Saunders was his only obstacle. State’s quarter made a good attempt to stop the ball at the center of the field but Martin had good interference by this time. Saunder’s tackle, however, retard ed Virginia’s captain enough to enable the fleet-footed Smith to overtake and down him on State’s 25-yard line. This danger past the Varsity showed how they felt their loss by the determined way they handled their opponents. Two more touchdowns were made in this half, Smith carrying the ball over, and Forkum kicked the goals. In the second half Fawkes was replaced by McGee. An injured knee was the cause of this substi tution. In spite of the stubborn defence of West Virginia touch downs were made by Forkum, Partridge and Moorehead. Two goals were kicked and the final score stood 34-0. The whole team played a helping game. The man with the ball was often dragged 5 yards after he was tackled. West Virginia was plucky and had plenty of spirit until the end of the game. Her men were very frequently laid out. Fumb ling was more frequent than usual on our side. Forkum played an all-round defensive and offensive game. Smith seemed to be the best ground-gainer of the day. He and Wray were a formidable pair of tackles. White and Dunn opened the line whenever called upon. The spirit of the whole team was very gratifying to State-supporters. Moscript and Yeckley were on the side-lines as the result of in juries received in the Yale game. The line-up : an. Price Five Cents. Position Barr left end__. Smith left tackle- ..left guard..
