...punt, and in three rushes pushed Davis over for a touchdown. Doe kicked the goal. After an exchange of punts the Army secured the ball on the Navy's 41-yard line and Prince broke through for the third touchdown, Doe kicking the goal. The half ended a moment later...
...where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your should." These words were spoken in a time when the kingdom of Judah, threatened with invasion from Babylon, was torn within itself by adverse theories, by doubt, by hesitation, by the impulse at one moment to follow any leader and at the next the cynical distrust of all. then the prophet came to the nation, halting as it were at crossroad, with his counsel to deliberate among the old ways and choose the one experience had pointed out as best...

Although not spirited, the work of the men in the infield was fairly accurate, as is signified by two runs as against ten hits by the Williams nine. The three errors made were some-what excusable, and luckily not at all costly. The catch...
