On the same sort Of a play that en-
abled the visitors to score Amherst also
scored. Captain McGay was called on
to punt out of danger. and, with a strong
wind at his back, he sent the pigskin
from his l4-yard line to the Dartmouth
2O-yard line Here it struck the ground
and bounded over the head of the Green
general, who just barely touched it.
Phil Written, the fast Amherst end,
was down the field with the ball, aud

goal line for the first score that the Pur-

score to the Dartmouth count. HIS touch-
down was the result of much anxiety and
hard work 1t took three tries at de-
laved passes to engineer the feat from
the 3-yard margin. Hogsett recorded his
second successful try at goal.
After Amherst had scored its touch
down and tied the score in the second
neriod both teams went at the game ham
mer and tongs with neither team having
any advantage. The second hair started
off with a rush and Amherst carried the
ball from its l0-yard line to the 40. where
McGay was forced TO punt. Here DART
