Buff and Blue. Erasmus scored one
touchdown in each half and defeated It's
greatest rival 13 to 0. Boynton went
over for each touchdown, and Frenchy
Hanf, quarterback, added one point by a
drop kick.
Boynton's first score came unexpect-
edly in the opening period. Erasmus
held the ball on Manuals eight yard
line. Boynton slipped behind the line
and took the ball quietly on a triple
pass and circled the right end for a
score. There was not a Manual tackler
within many yards of Boynton when he
crossed the line.
Erasmus continued to play smart foot
ball moro intellgently than its rivals.
Late in the final period Boynton inter
cepted "a Manual forward pass and
streaked forty-five yards for another
touchdown, the result of the most spec
tacular play of the game Boynton COW
cred the last thirty yards alone after a
Manual ta6kler dived desperately for
the speeding Johnny and missed by a
foot.
Except for Boynton's performances

sion when it had any advantage. Be
