Union made fourteen first
downs. completed seven forward
passes out of thirteen attempts
and had two intercepted. Shaw
made four first downs and com.
pleted one forward pass out OF
four attempts. Unions second
string men had a chance to show
their wares Saturday. Yancy and
Webb playing their first full
game. This was the first time
Yancy has been seen in action,
filling the shoes of Maxey Robin
son who was given a rest while
his understudy ran the team. Yam
cy gave a wonderful exhibition of
forward passing and running back
of punts and should prove a valu-
able asset to the team in years to
come. Union is waiting for the
Thanksgiving Classic with Hamp-
ton and C. 1. A. A. Championship.
