added while W. and J. were scoring
one point. The half ended with
the score at 19 to 6. The pace set
by the State team is not even indi
cated by the score, for, in the
greater part of the half the ball was
in W. and J. Territory.
W. and J. started the second half
with a rush and reduced the State
margin to eight points but State
braced and seemed content to hold
the margin of victory at about
12 points. By substitutions Capt.
Goodwin hoped to turn the tide but
found it impossible.
McPherson and Goodwin played
the best game for W. and J. The
team work and all around play of
Park’s team made it impossible to
pick out any particular star.
Wagner when substituted for Blaks
lee played well.
The line up follows

MIDDIES CAPTURE FIRST MEET
Superior Aggressiveness Decides
Victory,
For the second time in six years,
the Midshipmen succeeded in
wresting victory from the Penn
State matmen. It was the initial
contest for each team, and the
strongest lineup appeared in each
class, but the more marked ag
gressiveness on the part of the
Middies gave them the mcetjby a
good marg'n.
Only one fall was registered, and
that by the Navy, while extra
periods were necessary to decide
three other bouts; but in spite of
this fact, the team was out-fought,
and the aggressiveness which has
characterized our teams of the past
was absent, save in the first bout ol
the lightweights. The Navy is
coached and uses a style identical
with that taught here, so that de
feat came in on our game, and quite
unexpectedly. Four men on each
team had taken part in the meet of
last year when victory rested with
us.
In the fir't bout, Long was op
posed by Grant of the Navy, who
wrestled in his first varsity meet.
At no time was our point winner
of last year out-genereled, while on
the other hand. Grant had great
difficulty to save himself from be
ing thrown. At the end of nine
minutes. Long was given the de
cision and started Penn State’s scor
ing with four points, Wyatt, who
was thrown by Crockett of last
year’s team, met a new man in
Brown. After one minute of work
from the stand, Wyatt rushed
Brown, throwing him to the mat,
and at the same time falling into a
neck and body hold from which
Brown was unable to free himself.
In two minutes, 20 seconds, his
shoulders were pinned to the mat.
In the 135 pound class, Kirk went
nine minutes with his opponent

from whom he got a decision, last
year, and the result was a draw.
In an extra three minutes, Hoops
by exhibition of great strength and
aggressiveness, was successful in
gaining four points on decision over
him.
Pickett and Jones were both new
men for the 145 pound weight. In
in the first nine minutes, it seemed
likely that the advantage was again
with the Midshipmen, but a draw
was given and in the final minute of
the extra period, Pickett succeeded
in going on top, and retained his
position with the reward of a de
cision.
Yerger’s opponent of last year re
peated his past history, and in nine
minutes, gained a clear decision.
Stecker met Sayre’s opponent of last
year and was unable to recover
from a bad leg hold, losing on
decision.
The big surprise came in the
final bout when Captain Lamb was
forced to draw with his lighter op
ponent, T. W. Harrison. Harrison
had played end on the football
team, but had never taken part in a
wrestling meet previously. In 15
minutes,he was able to stay Lamb’s
attacks, so that at no time were the
men off their feet, and a decision
was not possible. The Navy root
ers were well pleased to see what at
first would have seemed a sure fall
against them, turn to an even break
with two points for either team.
The final score was 19 points for
the Navy and 10 for State.
Summaiy:
Long, State; decision over Grant,
Navy—9 minutes.
Wyatt, Navy; fall from Brown,
Penn State —2 minutes 20 seconds.
Hoopes, Navy; decision over
Kirk —12 minutes.
W. & J.
Fisher
Broadfoot, Navy; decision over
Yereei —9 minutes.
Ward, Navy; decision over Steck
er —9 minutes.
Lamb, State; draw with Har
rison— 15 minutes.
J. Grumbling, T 4, is back this
semester and is assisting “Doc"
Lewis in getting the men primed
for the Penn meet; also, “Billy”
Park, T 3, has been working with
the lightweight men to help perfect
their knowledge of the game.
To Orators and Essayists
Among the advances of this col
lege along literary lines is the in
creasing interest in oratory and
journalism. In the movement is
the local Prohibition League which
will hold its annual oratorical con
test the week before Easter vaca
tion. The subject, which will re
late to some phase of the liquor
problem, is not otherwise restricted.
Prizes are offered and the winner of
the home contest competes for
state honors at Dickinson, April 16.
All who are interested are urged to
begin preparations at once. We
claimed second honors in the state
last year. We can do better this
year.
For essays on "The Relation of
Individual Total Abstinence to the
Prosperity of the Nation,” the
W. C. T. U. offers very tempting
prizes. There are steps leading to
state honors here also. This op
portunity should appeal to those
who can write but not speak force
fully.
