College Miscellany.
Pittsburg's aggregation of stars was considerably sur
prised by the game put up against them by the White and
Blue. State was weakened in the kicking department by
the absence of Martin, but played well in defense, getting
the ball several times on downs and three times compelling
her opponents to kick. The locals put in a number of fresh
players to relieve those who became tired, while State play
ed through the twenty-five and twenty minute halves with
out making a substitution.
The first touchdown was made by Bird after twelve
minutes of straight hard foot ball. State’s best gain, when
Whitworth circled right end for 25 yards, followed immedi
ately. Later Duquesne secured the leather and advanced it
to State's 4 yard line. Here Captain Scholl’s men made a
plucky stand and gained the ball on downs. State made 3
yards through center, but an unlucky fumble gave the Pitts
burgers their second score.
Again in the second half Duquesne lost the ball on
downs on State’s 4 yard line. Ruble kicked to Pratt, who
after a short gain, kicked a goal from the 15 yard line. In
the remainder of the half the locals made some pretty end
runs which gave them two more touchdowns and made the
score 0-29. The line up:—
