Poor Aim Of Kickers
Loses Four Contests

For the first time this season
games were lost Saturday through
failure to kick goals after touch
down. Four victories were won in
this manner. 1t will be remembered
the rule for kicking goal after
touchdown was changed this season,
so that a team may now make the
attempt from any part of the field on
or back Of the l5-surd line.
New York University lost to Ham
ilton because of failure to kick goal.
Worcester Poly Tech, playing
against Rensselaer,, was beaten I to
6 because of failure in this same re-
spcct. Dickinson lost to Ursi"us for
the same cause, and in the Western
Conference Illinois was able to keep
on top when, after Jack Dunn,
Of Michigan, had made brilliant
5-yard run for touchdown and
had thus put Michigan in a posi-
ton to tie the score, the try for goal
was missed.
