BROWNS SLAEST VICTORY

GAME OUGHT TO HAVE BEEN 1870
The Inability Of Brown to Kick Goals.
From Touchdowns 10 Serious Matter
Finest Kind OF Work by the Bscks-
Other Teaturss Of she Game.
GAME OUGHT TO HAVE BEEN 4S--O

The game Saturday which Brown won
$40 against Trinity was very satisfactory
In most ways to supporters Of the team.
The interference and tackling OF the team
wal of high class, though the tendency
OF many Of the men is still to make too
high q tackle.
The work OF the line was very steady
and there were always good holes ready
for play through the line. S,me of the
men did not appear to ind the holes
easily and consequently made shorter
gains than they should. The team work
was great improvement over anything
before seen In Brown football, and the
game was the finest ever seen on Lincoln
field.
Trinity was much lighter than Brown
and somewhat disabled from several pre-
vious hard games, but was evidently
not up to tho style In which Brown
played. The new tricks which the team
had been practising the last week re-
suited In long gains aud the criss.cross
fooled the Hartford mon more than once.
The Inability Of Brown
to kick goals from touchdowns 10 a
serious matter. From the eight touch
downs made only one goal was kicked,
and that the most difficult one. AL the
others were square In front Of the goa!
posts. The score should have been 4s-o
Lancey kicked one in three. aud Hopkins,
Millard, Colby. Smith and Robinson all
failed in attemps to k'c', the goal.
Trinity demanded strictly undsr-
graduate team, so Hastings and Casey
did not play. Robinson took. Hastings
place at guard and though en-
tircly new to the position, did very
satisfactory work. Smith got into the
game in good shape. though he did not
use his weight and ability to break
through for what IL is worth. Coombs at
center played steady game aud broke
up Trinity's wedge plays In great shape.
At tackle Lancey played fine, aggres-
sive game. and made good gains
with the ball. Mott broke through
in fine shape and twice
spoiled Trini,y's punts. He ran too
high In bucking the limo and did not seem
to find his hole. At end Dennison and
Colby did good work and Dennlson made
several fine tackles.
The Work OF tho Backs
was OF the finest kind. Donovan pass ed
the ball quickly and accurately and gave
the signals well, playing n cool,
heady game. He tackled aud
interfered In fine style. Hopkins
proved himself a thorough master of the
game, and bis long runs, one o. IS yards,
showed what sort of u football man he was.
Milard also was In the game every time
and of such pair OF haf backs Brown
may we'll feel proud. Mccarthy at full
did good work. but he was not called
upon TO punt, his strongest point.
Altogether the work Of the men was
very satisfactory aud augurs well for the
future success of Brown football
grown Notes.
