The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1902-10-05

against the fast Omaha railway Office
team for the opening of the double bill.
The first half lasted twenty minutes;
the second was cut down to fifteen
minutes in order to allow sufficient
trail high and Hamline.
Brennans men made a good showing
against the railroaders, but the second
game was the feature. Though the
Central team was outweighed, the
players fought the Methodists to a
standstill and allowed five minutes
more of play would have tied it UP with
Hamline.
Hamlines five points were scored by
Fullback RAIDER before five minutes Of
the second half had been played. RAIDER
dropped a beautiful goal from the
twenty five-yard line, and the kick was
the sensational feature of the game.
