As upsual , g p q I the Chesapeake & Ohio was late, but; the band kept the crowd on edge, with its repetoire of stirring airs.f There was a feeling in the air that: meant only one thing, that the victo-i ry on Thanksgiving had not been the,‘ triumph of eleven men or twelve‘ men or twenty men———it was the vic-E tory of all Washington and Lee. 1 When finally the shrill whistle oft the incoming special sounded through; the cut and the rear lights appeared; around the curve as the train backed? slowly up the grade, there went up a‘ mighty shout that drowned the vol-l ume of the band. Between thunder-A ing yells, the notes of the “Swing”! boomed forth only to be rudely smoth-1 ered by the vast human outburst. As the team was literally carried from the car, the freshmen took charge of the motive end of the tal- lyho, while the upper classmen form- ed in double line ahead. Each man was provided with a brilliant torchlight. As the band struck up the “Swing" the parade moved slowly up town in a line of march several blocks in length. Just in front of the postofflce the torches were lit and the spectacle of the double line of fire reaching back nearly to the station was one long to be remembered. The column COIT'l‘ tinued through Main street and thence; down Washington street, the head off the parade coming to a halt opposite! the campus entrance. Then the fresh-ll men drew the tallyho between the} two lines of stzdents, who with un- covered heads did homage to the greatest team that ever trod Virginia soil.

C. A. & M. Continued from page 1 on the first play—a 65 ‘yard ‘end ran by Townsend. Faced with defeat, Washington and Lee rallied—hurled the powerful backfield backward on thre‘e successive downs and then blocked Townsend’s drop kick. The Generals braced and slowly marched towards the Aggie goal line, Sweet- land’s run for 33 yards placing the ball on the 50 yard mark. During the rest of the first quarter, the Gen- erals were on the aggressive. Open- ing the second period, Washington and Lee rallied. Donahue missed a goal from field by a narrow margin, which just preceded Seeley’s touch- down. During the final period, the Gen- erals played safely knowing that A. and M. was unable to cope with the strength of the line. A punting game was adopted, with Young gain- ing decisively over Townsend, Ban- ner and Riddick. Despite the defen- sive tactics most of the play was in A. and M’s. territory. Whole Team Stars It would be difficult to selecta star of the contest. Al Pierotti, the center, was a big ;factor in the battle. He outbattled his opponent, Captain Plyler from every view- point. His hefty shoulders often threw the Aggies backfield forlosses, while he broke through the line twice and blocked punts, A. and M. could not advance through center, with Pierotti fighting like mad and Scarry and Dingwall doing wonderful work. At tackles, Shultz and Miles starred. Shultz played his usual consistent, steady game, while “Buck” Miles closed his colegiatei career on the gridiron in a sensational manner. Seeley and lzard, at the ends, shone throughout the final conflict. Seeley scored the only touchdown, while Izard paved the way to scor- ing by catching a pass just before the fateful toss. Both played strongly on the defense. In the back field, Young's long sweeping end runs with Beuhring and Sweetland’s line crashes‘ featured, while Captaii Don- ahue directed the maneuvers craftily and added several gains himself. Beuhring and Young were active in backing up the line. Van Brocklin, the red crested quarterback, was the star for A. and M. The chunky little leader proved to be the most dependable ground gainer and backed up his forwards ably. He made several vicious tackles that checked the Generals. Tenneyficould not repeat his feats of 1913, While ltiddick was a complete failure. Both elevens entered the game without the services of one veteran—Washington and Lee being without Left End Ira Sims and A. and M. without RightT ackle Cooke. VVashingt0n and Lee used but four- teen men to triumph but, Coach Hag- erty sent in sixteen Aggies. But one time during the four periods did Washington and Lee sufler a penalty, fifteen yards for holding in the fourth period, while A. and M. was penalized four times, forty yards in all.

Not a‘ single General was forced to retire. It was a clean, hard struggle. Game Opens Adversély The game opemd with 9; really that put the Generals to a severe test. Captain Plyler won the toss and elected to receive the kick. and to defend the west goal. Young kickedl 50 yards to Riddick, who was downedl after a 10 yard advance by the punter. Townsend, favored with a powerful interference, swept past Washington and Lee’s right end, and continued down the field. When the A. & M. chargers passed the line, four of the interference, were in front of Townsend. After the runner had advanced 65 yards, Young tackled him on the 15 yard line. The mighty Tenney tried to hatter the line, but was hurled back by Miles for a 2 yard loss. Pierotti nailed the red crested Van Brocklin before he could advance on a criss cross. 'Ienney’s forward pass grounded back of the goal line. Twelve yards to go on the fourth down. Townsend dropped back to attempt a drop kick for goal. His boot was blocked by the Generals, but fortunately recovered by Riddick on the 5 yard mark. Tenney tested the line and found it invulnerable. Townsend circled right end for 5 yards, while Tenney plunged 8 yards through center for first downs. Ten- ney fumbled in hitting the line and Pierotti recovered the straying oval on the 25 yard mark. At this juncture, Donahue fumbled on the first down and P.-'yler recover- ed on the 22 yard line. Tenney fail- ed, but VanBrocklin made 5 yards on a criss cross. Donahue intercept- ed Tenney’s forward pass to Seifert and the ball changed hands 0 the 8 yard line. Young skirted I ‘end for 9 yards advance, running out of bounds on the 17 yard line. Beuhring added first downs with a powerful charge. Buck Sweetland broke through the Aggies’ defense for a 33 yard run that placed the ball amid- field. Fleet-footed Cy Young circled left end for 11 yards. Beuhririg hit right tackle for 7 more. Young gained 2 yards through center. Pier- otti’s pass occurred too soon and car- ried over the backfield. Hurling their bodies at the object in a des- perate effort to gain the ball, the Aggies and Generals engaged in a triple fumble.

Continued from page 2 around left end. On the "decep- tive” formation, Donahue gained 3 yards as the quarter closed, score- less. Beuhring hit the right side of rthe line without advance. Donahue dropped back and made an attempt to drop kick a field goal. The ball soared directly toward the bar and just between the uprights. It seemed a sure goal, but it soared just a few inches under the bar. It was not known until Referee Max- well declared no goal that Donahue had missed. The ball was placed in scrimmage on the 20 yard line. Tenney failed to gain and then Van Brocklin met with the same fate. Townsend kicked 20 yards to Pierotti. Seeley was thrown 3 yards on a criss cross, while Riddick intercepted Donahue’s forward pass on his 85 yard line. Tenney circled right end for 5 yards, while Van Brocklin plunged through center for 4 yards. Tenney made {first downs by a scant margin. The big fullback was injur- ed and time was taken out to allow him to recover. Tenney ‘made a yard from a run from the kick formation, but bucked the line without result. He forward passed to Van Brocklin for 15 yards. Young tackled him so viciously that he was knocked unconscious and time had to be taken out to enable him to regain strength. With the ball on the 50 yard line,Tenney did not gain testing the right side of the line. Pierotti threw Van Brocklin for 6 yards loss. Tenney’s forward pass to Van Brocklin grounded. Townsend’s punt was blocked and recovered by Pierotti on A. and M’s. 35 yard line. Secley Scores Touchdown Donahue gained 5 yards on a zig- zag end run. for 4 yards. Donahue hit center for a half yard, while Beuhring made downs through right guard. Seifert threw Sweetland 5 yards, when “Buck” ventured around right end. The first of two forward passes endowed the Generals with a victory came when Izard caught Donah'.ie’s forward pass for a 11 yard gain. Shifting the backfield to the right, Donahue sent Secley to the left side and shot a forward pass to him. Seeley caught the pigskin, dodged Van Brocklin, who was held by the interference, and crossed the goal line for the lone touchdown. Young kicked the ball directly between the up“lg'hts for goal. ’lhe ball went over the fence. With five minutes of further play in the first half, Townsend kicked 45 yards to Beuhring,who hurled onward 20 yards.

Townsend kicked 30 yards to Don- ahue, Who advanced 5 yards. The Generals hoped to increase the score to 10 for Young dropped back to the 50 yard line and tried to register a. goal from placement.

After having defeated the University of North Carolina, Virginia announces herself as the undisputed champion of the South Atlantic division. It considerable interest to us of Wash- ington and Lee to know that this division now comprises two teams—- Virginia and North Carolina. North Carolina A. and M., Georgetown, and V. P.

After the opeinng exercises the following officers were installed for the second term: President, M. M. Keaton; vice re- sident, W. C. Preston; secretary and treasurer, K. L. Shirk; censor, W. M. Brown. An interesting program was then rendered as follows: Orators—E. L. Junkin, P. G. Thompson; H. M. Shumate; J. E. Bear and P. C. Thomas. The question, Resolved, that the labor unions are detrimental to the industrial welfare of the country, was debated on the affirmative by M. M. Keaton and R. N. Latture, on the negative by I‘. A. Myles and A. N. Williams. The judges rend- ered a decision in favor of he affirm- ative. Then followed the election of speakers for the Society celebration. P. C. Thomas and H. M. Shumate were chosen as orators and M. M. Keaton, R. N. Latture, N. M. Bell and A. N. Williams were elected de- baters of the occasion. Officers for the celebration were elected as follows: President, W. M. Brown; vice president, J. C. Fisher; secretary, J. E. Bear; chief Marshall, C. P.l Heavener. l The president appointed C. P. Heav- ener as critic; P. G.Thompson, Ring- tum Phi reporter, and J. E. Bear, N. B. Adams and Miller as program committee for the society:celebration. The Washington Literary society held its regular weekly meeting on Saturday night with the vice presi- dent, J. C. Rivers, in the chair. Due to the fact that R. G. Hu_id- ley will be unable to debate at the intermediate celebration in February, A. L. Bennett was elected to take his place. The election of oflicers for the second term was then held, the following men being elected: President, L. W. Harris; vice presi- dent, C. E. Worth; secretary M. D. Ridenour; treasurer, reelected, E. S. Smith; critic, M. L. Masinter; Ring- tum Phi reporter for the society, P. D. Barnes; censor, L. W. Little. G. B. Lampton spoke on the sub- ject: “Where Hell is in Fashion, and Otherwise.” The oration of H. G. Brown was “Sectional Antagon- ism.” The declaimer cf the eve- ning, P. D. Barnes, recited Ben J. Hill's “Perils of the Nation.” The debate, Resolved: “That the W. and L. Law School Should Re- quire Two Years of Academic Work for Admission,” was highly inter- esting and instructive. R. G. Hund- ley and M. L. Masinter for the affirmative lost the decision to T. McP. Glasgow and C. C. Chambers for the negative. Morris L. Masinter, secretary to the debating council, has received word from the authorities of the Uni- versity of Tennessee that they are willing to debate Washington and Lee as previously scheduled. The debates with Trinity and Tennesseel will not be triangular as was de- cided, for Trinity does not haveaj contest with Tennessee. It has, now been decided to have the debate about the middle of April. E‘. E. —Brown_. ’11, is engaged in business -in Chattanooga, Tenn. I RING—TUM PHI RIBBON SOCIETIES GIVE THEIR ANNUAL SHOWS The annual shows of the P. A. N. and White Friar Ribbon society were given at the Lyric theater on Monday and Tuesday afternoon, respectively. As usual, the performances consisted of imitations of the leading local and national characters. The P. A. N. show was one of the best in years. With Angus McKin- non, as the Witless Wight, in the star role, the red bedecked perform- ers gave a snappy show.

The characters were: Witless Wright, Angus McKinnori; Mayor Jackson, Paul Derrickson; Hock Der Kaiser, Frank Gilliam; Student, W. K. Seeley; Quissical Berry, Ted Waters; Beau Schermertoot, H. F.

GENERALS GIVEN HUGE RECEPTION Continued from page 1 called for the team,Captain “Jiggs” and the coach, and they would not be denied. There in the light of the giant hon fire, little “Jiggs” Donahue, who had played his last game for W. and L., told the fellows how the old “Wrecking Crew” had swept A. and M. off its feet and so avenged the score of 1913. Then Coach Jogger Elcock told his story of how the mighty eleven from Carolina had been crushed by a superior football machine, and then he set the crowd wild with the declaration that the ‘team of 1915 would be even greater. Following him every member of the triumphant eleven was called to the Beanery steps and cheered. Mr. Ki- Icy, Coach Elcock’s brother-in-law, who witnessed the game in Norfolk, in a short address said that in all his experience among colleges and ath- letics, he had never seen an ovation to a team that could compare in spir- it to the one tendered the returning Generals. Finally the crowd was persuaded that the team were hungry and tired from their long journey, and at last disbanded with one last long yell for the South Atlantic champions. R. C. Hood, ’12, C. W. Pritchett,: Jr., ’12, Sydenstricker, '11, and H. P. Davidson, ’12, are in the medical department of Johns Hopkins Univer- sfty.
