sidering the hard work the eleven have
been during the season.
The Indians were looked upon by the
knowing ones as sure victors, but the
Brown University boys more than held
their own, and thanks to the brilliant
play of Fultz, GarmOns, Hall and Colby
in the first half, they tied the score with
a half dozen points registered for each
team and by brilliant play they got the
ball within 3 feet or Browns goal line
when the referee called time for the
ending of the first half.
The stopping Of the game at this point,
when the score was even was consider
cd by many Of the spectators to be a
poor piece OF Judgment, but the CaEisle
school boys took the matter philosophical
" although it was evident the Indians
could have pushed the ball over the a
touchdown in less than five seconds as
they had the leather within narrow
margin OF the goal line. Nothing daunt-
cd by the marvellous work done by the
Rhode Island students, the Indians came
up smiling for the second half but in
this they were outplayed entirely owing
to the magnificent work Of Fultz and
German, whose long and sensational
runs were the feature Of the game.
