ability at the scoring game, making a

Hamline boys yesterday. On the face

forty-seven points were made in the
first half, while the new men who play
ed in the second half could make only
eighteen.
The varsity continues to play a
strong offensive game, generally run
ming the plays through fast and with
good interference.
On defense the varsity was tried
only once. and then Hamline was
forced to punt directly.
Individually, Irsfield and Burdick
were the stars of the game, making
large gains at frequent intervals and
making themselves useful on interfer-
ence. Davies and O'Brien were not
far behind them. In the second half
none Of the new men was up to var
sity standard. Rand, though he could
push his opponent over, was of little
assistance in the plays. The line was
too weak to give the backs a chance
for long runs.
Hamline played a good game for the
first of the season, and looks to be
conner. Levitt and Horigan, tackles.
