very excellent article of football which

the first half. In the second half, once
again Walker, after a 4J-yard run. cross
ed the goal line for 'O7. out the play was
called back because of holding. and '01
was pcnalizcd u yards. Thereafter. 'OS
braced. and rushed the ball to within a
couple of yards of 'O1's goal line. where
the latter took it on downs. In the kick
ont from behind the goal line, Wise
blocked the punt and '0S fell upon the
ball for a touchdown. but unfortunately
for them. there had been off side play,
and the touchdown was not allowed, the
final score remaining, 'O7. ,, '0S. 0.
In Tuesdays game '07 had walk
over. 90 making a first down only once.
A good deal Of the ineniciencv of 'O9's
play was due to the fact that the center
and quarterback did not work together,
and the bail was always fumbled before
it reached the runner To some extent.
this was due to the fierce charging of
'07's line.
