and started up the field, but it was
of no avail for the students were upon
him, and he succeeded in getting but
very short distance. The ball went
to the Punahous and then back to the
Regiments. Austin made fair catch
and kicked the ball to Antonio Long,
who advanced it 10 yards. Howard
went around the right for 5 more, an
off-side play gave the Punahous 10
yards. Cupha went around the left for
a good gain, Armstrong through the
center for yards, Howard again for
two small gains and finally Armstrong
for a touchdown back of the goal.

1t was the Regiments kickoff, and
Damon, obtaining the ball, rushed
down the field for a small gain. The
resistance was too stubborn, and the
ball went to the Regiments. Gumpher

Is yards, but was tackled we'll by Ella
Long. He sought to make another
rush, but was carried back by the Pu-
nahous The ball was lost to the stud

In the next kickoff Clarke got the
ball and made a fine run of 80 yards.
Allan Judd of the Punahous was re-
tired by the Captain and his place was
taken by his brother Henry, this be-
ing due to the fact that he had done
some very hard playing in the begin
ming of the game, and had been pretty
we'll used up.
The Regiments made small gains, but
the ball was soon in the students
hpn

catch and ran Is yards before being

great main and hardly able to run, was
to retire, having been run
into with such force that the injury
was made a great deal worse. His
place at short was taken by Damon,
and KleugeI went in to complete the
team. The Punahous played with the
same spirit as they did throughout the
