were able to cross the coveted goal line
At that the play was of an extraordinary
character, for the@scoring came only after
a thrilling run of sixty-five yards by
Richards, the Yale half-back who was
carried by. magnificent interference past
tho Wisconsin rush line, and then, being

squarely behind the goal post.

pies Of football which seemed to be in
