semblance to liquid sunshine. fell

and the infantry got possession OF the

than the infantry's 40-yarti line. They
had good team and played the game

GreenWay for the Infantry received
the kickoff and ran the ball back to
the center of the field. Here the In
fantry pulled on two pretty forward
passes which practically ended the In

possession on their own 35-yard line.
During the intermission between
halves the drizzle turned to a down
pour, and when the teams lined up at
the beginning of the second half it
was in sea of mud and water. Good
playing was impossible and the game
was without interest save for the few
minutes when the Mounted Services
offense got going and they carried the
ball to the Infantry's 20-yard line
Their burst of speed was short lived
and their attempt at goal failed. From,
then on the ball was in the air or in
the mud until the whistle blew ending
the game, with the Mounted Service
in possession of the ball rtheir own
30-yard line. ..
