fierce lackling and all sorts OF good and
bad plays. The red men put up a
lightning fast game, which when the con

interference was Lext TO Yale's.
The interference OF the Indians was

kept this up during ,he half, but in the
second halt, as IN several previous con-
tests, the change was marvellous, the
Navy outplaying the enemy at all points.
