twenty-five yard line. In three plays it was but fifteen yards
from the center. Then Hewitt gave the ball to Whitworth
who through all the mud, behind the magnificent interference
of his captain, carried the ball to Dickinson’s five yard line
where Dickinson's left end caught him by a fine tackle after
a good sprint. In two plays Scholl carried the ball over and
Smith kicked goal. The State boys let loose now with all

Dickinson kicked off to State, who received the ball in all

them from getting the ball farther up the field. The half
ended with the score 6-0 in favor of State.
In the second half Core kicked off to Smith who advanced
it ten yards. Now steady plunges by Smith, Scholl and
Arbutlinot, with an occasional end run soon had the ball on
Dickinson’s four yard line from where Scholl ran it over for
State’s second touchdown. Smith kicked goal. State 12
Dickinson 0.

and the ball was Dickinson's on her twenty yard line. A
punt put the ball in the center of the field. State then
advanced the ball to Dickinson’s twenty yard line where they
lost it on a penalty. Dickinson again punted it to the
center, from where State gradually advanced it toward the
goal. It reached the three yard line when time was called
and the game was over. Throughout the game Dickinson
