lehigh completely redeemed her self on saturday afternoon defeat ing the navy by the score of 14 to 0 defeat was bitter for the mid dies as it was the first one their team had suffered for three sea sons and many of them had never seen their eleven beaten lehigh outplayed her opponents in every department of the game outclass ing the navy continually she had a better variety of plays which puzzled the academy team a su perior interference for the backfield and superior daring in trying diffi cult plays the skill displayed by captain pazzetti in leading the team and his remarkable gains with the ball were features of the game he scored the first touchdown after carrying the ball seventy yards crichton and hoban forced the navy line to give way and made consistent gains time after time navy supporters were surprised to see howe ingram and brown the big center trio outplayed by bian co wylie and grumback the midshipmen had a strong and heavy team but showed a com plete lack of effective interference their backfield work was especially loose nearly all of the plays were started from a formation of the backs similar to the old kick for mation and in nearly every case the man with the ball had little or no help leonard nicholls bates and cook showed individual worth but the absence of interference caused them to be thrown for losses fre quently lehigh kicked off to navy and after three unsuccessful attempts to gain navy punted pazzetti re ceived the punt on lehigh's thirty yard line eluding the navy's ends he wriggled through the entire na vy team for a touchdown just two minutes after the game had started hoban kicked the goal no more scoring was done in this quarter but the ball was in navy's territory most of the time during the second quarter there was no scoring though the ball changed hands several times in this period the middies got the ball on a forward pass which went out of bounds the navy came back strong in the third period and for a time it looked as though they were going to tally some points but they were finally stopped in a series of line plunges forward passes and end runs lehigh carried the ball to the navy's ten-yard line here su perior knowledge of the game was shown pazzetti threw 7 a forward pass over the goal-line to sautelle the ball sailed over the heads of the opponents and the little right end had to leap into the air to catch it no sooner had it touched his hand than he dropped to the ground scoring lehigh's second touchdown hoban again kicked the goal navy didn't get within striking distance of the brown and white goal-line the offense of the mid shipmen was very weak navy's gains usually being on lehigh's pen alties the middies were rarely penalized but in the last quarter referee weymouth was forced to penalize them for having twelve men on the field pazzetti was the star of the game he ran his team with good judg ment and snap and showed much skill in punting and in running back kicks crichton and hoban show ed their ability as line-smashers while flick keady and higgins who alternated at left-half-back were good ground-gainers vela played his usual consistent game at end and had a good mate in sau telle the line showed an immense improvement over the princeton game the heavy navy backfield being unable to gain through it out of the seven forward passes three were successful nearly every penalty in the rule book was inflicted at one time or other by the officials the line-up : — naval academy lehigh ralston austin i.e vela goyrie shaw kennedy vaughan emerson wood ward 1 1 tate howe
