State College Foot Ball Team Loses by But 2 Poluts-A Fine Gameo-Money Changes Hands on the Result, On Saturday morning the State Col. lege foot ball team, accompanied by about one hundred students, and a delegation from Bellefonte and other parts of the county, took train for Lew. isburg where an interesting game of foot ball was to be played.

The shouts and cheering of the {State College boys at this point was beyond description. In the second in- ning the two teams fought fiercely and hard, but Bucknell soon scored two goals which gave them 12 points to 6. Buck. nell people almost went crazy with de- light at this point of the game. With but a few minutes to play the State Col. lege team rallied in fine style and foroed the Bucknell team back and scored a touch down, which gave them four points and a chance to kick a goal and would have made the score even, but they missed and then it was 12 to 10, In the few minutes left nothing was gained and when time had expired Bucknell was victorious by 12 to 10, Deafning cheers and yells arose over the field and the wildest scene followed. The Bucknell students leaped over the ropes, picked up their eleven players and bore the victorions men off the field on their shoulders, State College played a noble game and it was due to several bad fumbles only that they lost the game. Should a return game be played at State College this season it would be a treat for all who could go to witness it.
