Beall made n most sensational run
around the left end and il looked for a
time as though he would clear the

and the crowd held their breat when
big Eugene Baird dropped back for the
kick. He was about thirty yards from
the goal line and when FARRELL made a
perfect pass of the ball Baird dropped
II to the ground and sent his foot
against 1t with terrible force.
The ball sailed high above the heads
of the players and over the center of
the goal and one of the most difficult
complished. The score then stood 10
to o in favor of the first team.
Brow again kicked of and the ball
was near the center of the field when

first team tried several times to gain
but the second team had taken n brace
n theb all went over on downs. But

fell on the ball himself. Davis went
the line for ten yards and
went around the end for another
sensational run and this time was
to the ground by Stephens

The second team took "A wonderful
brace and held the first team for downs

this half but neither side was
able to score. and the score at the end
