TIED THE SCORE.
The College and the University Of
Tennessee play football.


,heir choice Of goals giving Maryville
the kick off. The ball was downed
near the u. of 7. IS yds. lines and
the game opened in earnest. There
seemed ia be little hope for Maryvllle
from the way the game opened.
Their opponents struck our heavy
rush line, which was uever bucked SO
hard before, three men at time and
made gain after gain forcing the ball
TO within fifteen yards of Maryville's
goal. Several attempts were made by
the U. Oft. to 60 around our ends,
but they proved failures as Nuchols
and Hamilton on the side and Smith
and Snyder an the other assisted by
Takahashi who was everywhere allow
ing no gains to speak of, The only
science the opposing team showed
was the manner in which they bucked
the line, which was new to onr boys
and things looked blne for M, but
when within fifteen yds. Of our goal
the boys became desperate and held
their bucking opponents for three
downs and gained the ball. One
double pass and splendid interference
by Nuchols, Snyder and Smith, Ham
ilton made long and pretty run of
30 yds, carrying the ball back into U.
of T, territory. Good bucking by
SNYDER and Nuciaols carried it farther
put after the U. of T. coach had
spoken to his umpire the ball was
given to U. Of T., The umpire claim
ing that M. held in the line. U. of
T. again commenced her bucklny,
tactics, making only one sight gain
around the rsgat end. But they
didn't 60 as fast at first as our boys
had 'caught on to" their way of hit
ting the line and could stop them
without such big gains. At this point
Hamilton slipped past and tackled the
man with the ball five yds. behind the
line but in the fall his nose was bro
ken and he had to retire from the
game. Belk, who was laying off on
account of strain in the game with
the Y. M. c. A., took his place.
His many admirers said, Belk will
show them something, and as the ball
went to M. on Hamiton's tackle, he
didn't dissappoint them. He made a
pretty run of twenty yds. around left,
assisted as usual by the reliable
Nuchols and plucky little Snyder
Then Nuchols bucked for IS yds nj
cely fooling the U. of T. Snyder
went through for 10 and then by an
other feint practiced on their trained
Opponents, Belk went sailing around
right end for IS yds and right be
tween the goal posts. Nuchols theI
easily kicked goal. Score 90 in ia
vor of Maryville.
The U, of r. kicked off from cen
ter aid after some gains M. lost thu
ball and their opponents by making

surely toward onr goal. With thu
