pOsedly the weakest team in the fed
GRAFTON. defeating the local Y. NJ. c. A

a score of 10 to 6. The first half ended
II to in favor of the college. The
team played the most disadvantageous
schedule of any team and was COM
nletely used I'D in the first and hardest
fought game of the whole series when
