Time of half; 3o minutes. Score : 36-18. Our boys' offensive work was good on the whole, but their defensive play was the poorest this season. The game in fact was remarkable for the size of the scores piled up on both sides. Where one side scores heavily it is very seldom that the other side is able to score more than once, and then generally on a fluke. Two of Bucknell's touch downs were clearly earned, and the other could hardly be called a fluke. Oar boys must put up a better defensive game. Bucknell's interference was as good and in many cases better than ours. The score on the whole was disappointing to our boys, while Bucknell felt quite jubilant over hav ing done so well. Haley played a fine bucking game, seldom fail ing to plow through Bucknell's line for good sub stantial gains. Atherton and White also did magnificent wo:k, the former's two missed goals being due town injury on his right hip that great ly impaired the accuracy of his kicking. Harris, Dowler, and Fisher in the line played finely, while Hoskins, McCaskey, Stuart and J. Dunsmore played a ?ood steady game. Thomas and W. Dunsmore also worked hard. For Bucknell Bar clay, Wolfe, Smith, and Young played. the game. The best interference in the game was put up by these•four with' Barclay carrying the ball around
