VARSITY YOUNGS~ ERS DOWNED
THE OLD BOYS IN A LIVELY
GAME ON WIA..ANLsTTE FIELD
YESTERDAI.

In a game filled with long runs
and epectacular plays, the Varsity
toem defeated the Alumni 10 to
} day The "has beens" weighed at
least 20 pounds to the man more
than the team opposing them. Their
center weighed 21O pounds; right
tackle, 23O; left tackle, 22O; quar-
ter, 200; half back, 200 and several
others near 200. The heaviest man
in the Varsity team team weighs
about 1856 pounds, with the excep-
ton of one.
The individual playing of Bishop
was remarkable, being almost inn
possible to down, and his punting
was feature RAIDER for the Var
sity was probably the star, making
a getaway through right guard on
a delayed pass, running about 70
yards, cleverly evading Bishop, and
making a touchdown. Reeves in
the third quarter scooped up a beau
tiful on-side kick for the Varsity
and running about 25 yards, scored
another touchdown.
There was considerable time taxi
en- out discussing the on-side kick
ruling. The on-side kick cannot lie
interfered with by any man on the
side having kicked, before the ball
has gone 20 yards. At one time
during the game Captain Nc Meach-
in kicked and the ball was recovered
by Westely and taken 80 yards for
a touchdown, but they measured
the kick and it proved yard and
one-half short, so the score was not
counted. McRae, of the Varsity
team. played a brilliant game at
guard.
The story Of the game follows:
Congressman Hawley kicked the
ball 80 yards; Booth caught the bail
and advanced 10 yards. RAIDER
went through guard for small gain
McMeachin failed to advance, Booth
punted to Bishop who was downed in
five yards. Alumni was penalized .
yards for being offside. Bishop punt
ed and Booth was downed almost in
his tracks. RAIDER was sent through
