The game was called at 2 o'cl5ck, with
600 people present. b. Y. won the toss
and chose north goal. Beck made
splendid kickoff for the varsity. B. Y.
carried it to the five-yard line. and then
Bowen made twenty yards around the
right end. being followed by Hendricks,
who carried the pigskin forty yards in
next two downs, by making brilliant
end runs. The gains were kept up by
hard bucking. and then the theologians
lost the ball on tumble
The varsity was unable to make any
Roadway when they got the ball, and 1t
went over on downs without an inch
having been gained. When the B. US.
got the ball Davis made a foul pass,
and the pigskin was given to the var
sity again. They were unable to make
any gains. so they punted down the
field, and the B. Y's. got the ball. Then
Hendricks went round the end for
twelve Yards gain, and Olsen went
through left tackle for fifteen yards.
Bowen made five yards. and then, with
the ball within five yards of the goal
and everything in their favor, the B.
Us fumbled and the oval rolled out
fifteen feet from the scrimmage.
TAYLOR. the nimble little quarterback
CT the varsity, had it in an instant, and
went down the field like lightning; max
ing a safe touchdown, amidst wild en-
thusiasm. Beck missed an easy goal.
B. US. kicked off and when first half
was called had the ball within fifteen
yards of their goal again.
In the second half the b. US kicked
in splendid style. and the varsity made
good gains and kept 1t up by bucking
the line with beautiful wedge forWa-
ton. Their play was splendid, but

however. and finally made a kick and
secured the ball, after gaining twenty
yards Then they showed KingSbury
through the center for five yards more.
When within ten yards of their goal the
ball went over, and the b. Y's. made
desperate efforts to get the ball back
up the field.
They fought like fiends, and made
good gains, but just as time was called
the varsity secured the ball again. A
rousing cheer was given the gritty
little fellows from Zion. who were out
weighed considerably by their oppo-
nents. Taylor was the one hero of the
game Had not the fiuke occurred, the
score would likely have been reversed,
as the B. US. were too heavy for the
varsity, and when the tumble occurred
they were close to a touchdown. The
Aggies are endeavoring to get game
with the varsity on Saturday next. The
victors of today's game will be ban
quoted this evening.
