In the last game of State’s season on a field of mud and
water, with the elements rain, wind and cold battling’
against them, State and Dickinson struggled manfully on
Beaver Field on Saturday, Nov. 23, 1901, for victory.
This was the long looked for game at State. Both
teams were evenly matched and enthusiasm was keyed up to
the highest pitch. About one thousand people, students,
instructors, visitors and townspeople, turned out despite the
inclemency of the weather to witness what they all hoped,
Dickinson’s downfall. The Cadet Band was on hand and
their good music did much to enliven the occasion.
Dickinson came first on the field, followed shortly after
ward by State’s team, who in their brand new blue sweaters
with the white S looked imposing' to say the least, After
a little practice the captains met and arranged the halves,
etc. Ammerman won the toss and chose to defend the east
goal with the wind in his favor.
Smith kicked off and Dickinson advanced it to their
thirty yard line. On the first play Dickinson fumbled and
State had the ball. By steady plung'es the ball was soon on
Dickinson’s ten yard line where a fumble by Scholl lost the
balL In three dbwns Dickinson made their first down of the
first half. . Being forced tO' ptmt they did with good effect as
