ball. The quarter back and the two half backs easily led in
spectacular work. ’ ’
Thomas, a sturdy player, with a shock of thick hair, broke
through Adelbert’s line and ran for twenty yards before he could
be stopped. Once again he repeated the play before the first half
was finished.
Near the end of the second half the last fine play of the after
noon took place. Evans started with the ball for Adelbert and
tried to circle Pennsylvania’s right end. He had got well around
and seemed to have an opening for a long gain, when suddenly he
lost the ball. Quicker than a flash it was pounced upon by
Walker, the full back of the visitors, and he started for Adelbert’s
goal with not a man between him and a touchdown. The Adel
bert players were not slow to grasp the situation. Captain Wick
ham started after Walker, and was so much the better sprinter of
the two that he gained upon him with every jump. On the fifteen
yard line he reached forward and grasped him, and Walker came
down, though he hung to the ball with a desperation, born of
anxiety for his side.
