A Hard Practice Game, As Westminster had canceled, ar rangements were made with the Jersey Shore team to play here last Saturday. They came highly elated over their previous showing against the College team and determined to win from the Varsity in any manner. A large crowd of students assem bled to witness the contest. The teams lined up with Jersey Shore defending the south goal ar.d Mos crip kicked off. The ball went across the goal line after a Jersey Shore man had touched it and State claimed a touch back. This was disputed and the ball was finally given to Jersey Shore on the 25-yard line. They failed to gain and kicked to Yeckley on the 55-yard line. From here State carried the ball down the field for a touchdown at the hands of Smith, and Moscript easily kicked rhe goal. Kelley got the next kick-off and brought it back 15 yards. Again they could not gain and punted. A series of plays netting 3 to 5 yards at a clip finally placed the ball where Yeckley could easily score the sec ond touchdown. The goal was easi ly kicked. State again kicked off —this time to Corson, who returned the ball 15 yards. On the next play Earr threw the runner for a five yard less and Jersey Shore kicked. Partridge, Yeckley and Moscrip each made first downs and McGee was sent through the line for 15 yards, ten of which he made alone with three men hanging to him. Partridge took the ball over and with Moscrip’s goal the score stood 18-0. This ended the scoring in the first half. Yeckley was injured and Fawkes replaced him. The half closed with the ball in State’s possession on their opponents 30-yard line. In the second half Jersey Shore kicked off to Moscrip who ran back 20 yards before being downed. State gained ’consistently. Gotwals who had replaced Smith was quite efficient. In a short time Fawkes was shoved over for a count. Jersey Shore fumbled the kick-off and their man was downed cn the 10 yard line. They gained some, mak ing one first down, but were scon forced to kick. McGee lan the ball back 20 yards. Despite some very airly play at this time by Jer sey Shcie a few plays sufficed to put McGee behind the line. Short ly after the next kick-off Mcllveen replaced Fawkes and played a fierce game. The ball now went from one half-back to the other until it was on the five yard line. Here it was lost on an unfortunate fumble and Jer sey Shore kicked to the center of the field. Time was called at this juncture with the score: State 30 Jersey Shore, 0. McAvoy’s hurdling was a feature of the game. He did seme very daiing work and gained repeatedly. Jersey Shoie’s line although 20 pounds heavier per man than State’s was very weak and long gains were made regularly through it. McGee and Wray filled their positions very creditably and Moscrip’s kicking was marked especially in the ease and accuracy with which he kicked the whole five goals. That same help ing spirit and good team work that characterized all the games of the year was better if anything than ever Honhart ran the the team very well in the absence of Saunders and handled the ball smoothly.

The Electricals had the advantage throughout the game and won by straight football. In the first half they recived the kick off on their five yard line and car ried the ball by steady gains to with in six yards of their goal. Here when a touchdown seemed certain, time was called.
