The first half ended with score Of

The boys went back into the second

as a result made three touch downs.
The feature of the game was the so

.'Evon before the Revolutionary War
starter there were troubles here In
the Colonies, Just as In summer
storm there are often rumhles OF

there was sun trouble. In faol y
wasn't until after The War or 1872
between the United States and Great
Britain that relations between the two
countries were really adjusted.
