with the referee. It is claimed that
the referee made a wrong decision in
giving touchdown to the Charles
ton team when a forward pass was
made across the goal line and again
when an unsuccessful forward pass
was made and the ball rolled across
their goal line. BY this decision the
Charleston team secured six points
which. according to DR.. DuRan-,
they We're not entitled to under the
rules as stated in the official foot

morning that he would contest the
result Of the game as it meant the

taken up with proper officials for
them to render their decision.
