In* much difference.
After seeing the masterly way the Clem-
mui team played hall, the wonder Ih that
Georgia lout to them hy only C point* to
0; that I>nvldnon held them to a 0 to 0
tie, and that they won from Aulmrn by
po meaner n score nn 6 to 4.
An the Cleinaon team atanda today, It Ih
about the equal of any In the Houth, bar
ring Vanderbilt and probably Hewnnco.
Certain It Is that the South Carolina Tl
gera would not rank far. If any, behind
the Tennessee Tigers.
WHAT EXPERTS THINK.
There were n variety of opinions about
why Cleinson won.
••Bronchi*’* Armstrong, the niuplre, said:
"The Tech players do not seem to ho quite
t*u edge. After play had progressed a few
minutes lu each half they were plainly
tired. Cleirson outrushed them.”
Henry l'hllllpa, tho referee, made only
one comment, and It was. "Outplayed."
Coach llelsmnn nald: "They had older,
heavier players, ami they played with what
Mcemed to me almost unnecessary rough
nesa.”
Coach Williams* comment was: "Wo
played better fiMithall. 1 think. If we bad
had any reasonable distances to galu, lu
place of the absurd lu yards, wo would have
won with all ease."
Bolt Patterson, couch and teacher at floor-
gin Military academy, and ex-Vanderbilt
center, summed It up very nicety when he
said: Too much speed and loo much Der
rick and Furtlek.”
Apparently (Meinaon had the better of
Tech by a shade In almost every depart
ment of the game, save, |>erhaps, kicking.
The Clemaon Hue, while It did not open
*up an.v big holes, was aide to prevent the
Tech linesmen from doing It. Thu Cleinson
l*acks were heavier and stronger men. Fur-
lick, Allen ami Derrick hud every advantage
la at»e and weight over Hightower, l»a-
vl#a and Adamson. The Clemaon back a I
started fnst, drove hard Into the line ami j
around ends, ami had a marvelous faculty j
of keeping their feet nud plowing along j
wltb the or six Tech men elltiglng to
them.
Besides that. Tech had no man who
l*e called to run from Ids positlou lu the
line and mnkc the galus that McLatirln
did. This man was one of the stars of
the game, and Is probably the beat man
and the nearest to an All Houthern player
that Coach Williams baa.
Wltb this much on the reasons for
€.'lamson‘s superiority. It might be worth
while telling briefly how tho touchdowns
were made.
HOW 8C0RE8 WERE MADE.
The game opened with the usual perfunc
tory exchange of kick-off nud punts and
Are minutes of piny found the ball In Clem-
son’s possession with 4<) yards between It
and the desired goal Hue. McLaurln was
railed ou nml carried the ball nt»out thirty
yards. On the Tech ten-yard Hun Tech tried
to make a atund. but McFaddcu. Clomaon’a
quarter, took the ball, rau his required flv«
yards out from the renter, located n Iarg<
hole lu the Tech defense and filtered right
through the middle of It for a touchdowu.
The attempt at goal failed aud there was
no more scoring until the second half.
The second touchdown was made like *
many of them under the new rules, aud
was due to the on-side kick rub*.
When the second half opened Tech kicked
off and Clemson, after attempting fruit
l«*Mily to run tin* hull hack, was forced to
punt. Tech’s at tempt nt a forward pass at
this point failed, and ns the hall hit the
ground without being touched hy plajcr* of
cither side. It went over to the Kmiili Caro
lina aggregation.
Itlght nt thin puiut the crash came. Clem-
sou punted the hull from about mid field
for forty yards or so. right down almost
to the goal line Tech was defending. I.y kes
eaq) H down the Held under th** kick, was
l*csld«> the hall ns Ii hit aud bounds! for
th»* first Him*, ami, eluding the efforts of
*T,nl»*fer" Brown to knock him away or
to fM*ctlfc Hie hall for hlumelf, the t.ieiusoo
eud plucked if nut of the air ami went
over for the second touchdown.

Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 30.—In finest
fettle and eager for the fray, the f*H»t-
ball elevens of tile Annapolis and
West Point academies huve arrived In
Philadelphia, ready for their unnual
game tomorrow on Franklin field. Ex
tra stands have been erected on tho
field and all other preparations for the
contest have been completed. More
than 30,000 scats huve been disposed
of. and the usual crowd of distinguished
officers of tho army and navy is ex
pected to he at the game. The secre
tary of war und the secretary of the
iivy are expected at the game, along
lth numerous other officials of the
jveral departments of the Federal
government. Most of these will arrlv<
In special trains from Washington and
New York tomorrow.
Hecause nf the excellent showing it
has made this year against Yale and
other star teams, the West Point eleven
Is naturally a decided favorite in to
morrow's contest, though the sailor
hoys from the naval academy ' ure
counted upon to put up a game strug
gle for the honors.
The contest tomorrow will be the
twelfth between the football teams of
tho two academies. The navy has won
four and the army six. Last year they
•dayed a tie game.
The first game between the two
government institutions was played at
West Point on the Halurday after
Thanksgiving, 1890. In that game the
wearers of the black and gray, cap
tained by William Mlclllc, received a
severe drubbing at the hands of the
navy by the use of the famous "Hying
wedge," which caused such an Inter
esting crusade to be made by the mem
bers of the w. T. r. and H. P. (’. A.
-igalnst the "brutal sport." and which
was Inter barred by the rules commu
te**. The score on that occasion was
-4 to 0.
The return game was played on the
navy’s grounds, on November 30 of
tho following year, before the (for
those days) very large' crowd of 3.0oa,
and resulted In the army retrieving Its
former defeat to the tune of 32 to 16.
For the third game of the series the
navy again traveled up tho Hudson,
and although the army team out
weighed them seven pounds to the
man, the contest resulted In a 12 to 4
victory for the sailor boys.
The army went to Annapolis on De
cember 3, 1893, entirely confident of Its
ability to carry a victory bafck to West
Point. It returned, however, with such
heart-breaking figures .as nuvy 4,
army 4.
The games were then discontinued
until December 2. 1899, when the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania first enter
tained "tho nation's heroes" on Frank
lin Held. The navy could not-stop the
fierce plunges of the army backs, who
were determined, and who succeeded In
wiping out the stain of tho defeat of
1893—17 to f*.
On December 1, 1900, the navy was
again the victor, the final score being
navy 11, army 7.
It was ut Franklin field on Novem
ber 30, 1901, that tho blue and gold
first met the famous Daly, who started
the army’s scoring hy placing a beau
tiful drop from the field squarely be
hind tho goal posts near the end of the
first half and literally kept the ball,
rolling until at the close of the game
the score stood army 11, navy 5.
At the contest of 1902, which took
place on November 28, the first of the
army’s big scores was plied up and the
middles returned to Annapolis to dreum
of army 22, navy 8.
Exactly one year to tho day and dato
the soldier boys rubbed It In on tho
nuvy to the mournful tune of 40 to 5,
and the midshipmen went buck deter
mined to do or die in their next at
tempt. #
With this determination strong upon
them, they came to Philadelphia two;
years ago. and by one of the gamest j
tights ever watched by a phenomenal i
crowd they fought their heavy oppo-1
nents all over the field, and by nn al
most superhuman effort kept the fig
ures down to army 11, navy 0.
Last year the contest was trans
ferred t<* Princeton and resulted in a
magnificent tie game, the score stand
ing ut the close 6 to 6.
