This snapshot shows Coach Whitney, of the University of Georgia, In u characteristic atti tude tut ho watches his team play ing the game. afternoon, though hoth teams resorted to every i>OMslbfe expedient. The forward pass was tried again and again by both teams and often it netted good gains. In no test of the year lu Atlanta, and very likely In few anywhere, have'so many forward passes tow used. They were the spec tacular feature, of the game, after the scor ing was over. (ireat credit Is due Coach Williams for the victory of Thanksgiving day. He took n large amount of green material, struggled through a sciisou where his best tneu were constantly on the Injured list, ripened the team up for the last big struggiu iiud won handily. For the Tech team and Coach Ilclsman there is plcuty of credit, even If the bunch ARKANSAS’ COACH.

There were a variety of opinions about why ClcuiMon won. “Broncho" Armstrong, the umpire, sold: ••The Tech players do not seem to bo quite on edge. After play bad progressed n few minutes In each half they were plainly tinnl. (’letnsoii Otitruslied them." Henry I'hllllps, the referee, made only one comment, and It was. "Outplayed." Conch Ilclsman said: "They bad older, heavier players, and they played with what seemed to me almost tin necessary rough- itoss." Coach William*' comment was: "H*u played better footlmll, I think. If we luul Had any renwimtble distances to gain, lu place of the absurd 10 yards, wc would hate won with all ease.** Jlob Patterson, coach ami teacher at floor- gin Military academy, nud ex-Vanderbilt center, summed It up very nicely when In* said: "Too much speed ami too much Der rick and Furtlck." Apparently Clcmsoii luul tlie better of Tech by u shade lu almost every depart ment of the game, save, perhaps, kicking. The Clemson line, while It did not open up any ldg boles, was able to prevent the Tech linesmen from doing It. The Clcntson backs were heavier a ml stronger men. Fur- tick, Allen and Derrick hud every advantage In also and weight over Hightower, Da vies and Adamson. The Clentsoa backs started fast, drove hard Into the Hun and around ends, and bad a marvelous faculty | of kreptug their feet and plowing along | { with the or six Tech wen clinging to | i them. Besides that, Tech had no man who could . be called to run from his position lu the , lino nud make the gains that McLnurln | did. This man was one of the atari of the game, and Is probably tin* best man nud the nearest to nn All .Southern play that Coach Williams has. With this much oil the reasons for Ctomson's superiority, it might bo worth while telling briefly how tho touchdowns were made. HOW 8C0RE8 WERE MADE. The game opened with tho usual perfunc tory exchange of kick-off nud puuts and five minutes of play found the ball In Clem- nun's possession with 40 yards between It and tho desired goal Hue. Mc!<aurin was called on and carried the ball altout thirty yards. On the Tech ten-yard linn Tech tried j to make a stand, but McFnddcn, Clumsoti'n querter, took the boll, ran bis required five : yard* out from the center, located a large , hole In the Tech defense and Altered right through the middle of It for n touchdown. The attevpt nt goal fulled nud there was uo more scoring until the second half. The second touchdown was made like so many of them under the new rules, and was due to the on-side kick rule. When the second half opened Tech kicked off and Clemson, after attempting fruit- lessly to run the ball back, was forced to punt. Tech's attempt at a forward pass nt this point failed, and as the tntll hit the ground without being touched by players of cither side. It went over to the Mouth t’nro- Itna aggregation. flight at this point the crash came. Clem- son punted the lull! from about mid field for forty yards or so. right down almost to the goal line Tech was defending. Lykes came down the field under the kick, was beside the ball ns It bit and boumbnl for the first time, and, eluding the efforts of MAKE8 OFFER FOR MONTGOM ERY'S BERTH IN SOUTHERN, AND MAY GET IT.

Monroe, e Flark, «*. Knyder, r. g llrltt and farter, r. g. Luck and IMttard, r. t McLanrln, r. t. lMiiludelpliiu, Pu., Nov. 30.—In finest fettle and eager for the fray, tlie foot ball elevens of the Annapolis and West Point academies have arrived In Philadelphia, ready for their annual game tomorrow on Franklin field. # Ex- tands have been erected on I lie field and all other preparations for the contest have been completed. More than 30,000 seats have been disposed of, and the usual crowd of distinguished officers of the army and navy l: peeled to be at the game. The t* tury of war and the secretary of the navy are expected at the game, along with numerous other officials of the veral departments of the Federal government. Most of these will arrive 111 special trains front Washington and New York tomorrow. Because of the excellent showing it has made this year against Yale and other star team*, the West Point eleven Is naturally a decided favorite in to morrow's contest, though the sailor boys front the naval academy ore counted upon to put up u game strug gle for tho honors. The contest tomorrow will b© twelfth between the football teams the two academies. The navy has won four and the army six. Last year they nlnyed a tie game. The first game between the government institutions was played at West Point on tin* Saturday .after Thanksgiving. lKtto. In that game the wearers of the black and gray, cap tained by William Mlchle, 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, I\ and H. P. t\ A. against the "brutal sport." and which was Inter barred by the rules commit tee. The score on that occasion wu« 34 to 0. The return gume wus played oil the navy’s grounds, on November 30 of the following year, before the- (for those days) very (urge crowd of 3,ooo, and resulted in the army retrieving Its former defeat to the tune of 32 to 16. For the third game of the series tho navy again traveled up the Hudson, and although the army teum 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 back to West Point. It returned, however, with such heart-breaking figures as navy 4. army 4. The games were then discontinued until December 2, 1899, when the Uni versity of Pennsylvania first enter tained “thd nation's heroes” on Frank lin field. The navy could not stop tho fierce plunges of the army backs, who were determined, and who succeeded In wiping out the stuin of the defeat of 1893—17 to 6. On December 1, 1900, the navy waa again the victor,, the final score being navy 11, army 7. It was at Franklin Held on Novem ber 30, 1901, that the blue and gold first met the famous Duly, who started the army's scoring by placing a beau tiful drop from, the Held squarely be hind the goal posts near the end of the first half and literally kept the ball rolling until ut 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 tho army’s big scores was plied up and the middies returned to Annapolis to dream of army 22, navy 8. Kxaetfy one year to the day and date •• soldier boys rubbed It in on the navy to the mournful tune of 4o 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 ago. and by one of the gantest j fights ever watched by u phenomenal 1 rowd they fought their heavy oppo-i nent.s all over the field, and by nn al most superhuman effort kept the fig ures down to army II, navy o.
