plays and worked them to perfection. On
the hrst Bianck made three yards Deary
duplicated the performance. Lennont fol-
lowed suit. and then Blanck worked the
ball to within two yards OF the line II
was do or die with the Y AZ c. A. bows
and so Blanck took the bali again. The
crash was a hard one. and no one knew

the line half the length of his body Four
points were certain. but could the hard
working captain kick goal7 The angle
was not very difficult. but under the cir
cumsfances IL was enough TO keep the sup
porters of the Y. NJ. c. A. in deep sus-
pense. Blanck took plenty of time. and as
his foot came in contact with the ball the
crowd shouted Then there was a mo-
mentary hush. sor the bail commenced to
fail. and u looked as If II might fall short
But II crossed above the bar and the score
had been tied.
