Ninety-Eight, 12; Ninety-Seven. 10.The tie between the sophomores and freshmen was played off yesterday afternoon on Soldiers Field. The freshmen won after a very close and, for the most part, well played game by a score of twelve to ten.

In the first half the play was very even and neither side was able to score. Both sides did very good work, but, as in the previous game, played much better on the offensive than in the defensive game. The best playing for the sophomores was done by Weld, Scannell, Sullivan, and Garrison. For the freshmen, Cabot, Scott, and Redpath did good work. Cabot played harder and better than any other man on either team. The sophomores lost several times by running back in trying to round the end, and made both their scores on inexcusable plays on the part of the freshmen. Ninety-seven had the kick-off. Flint returned the kick and the ball was rushed up and down the field with varying fortune and no remarkable plays on either side. Neither side scored.

In the second half Sleeper took Connor's place at tackle for '97. The freshmen had the kick-off and Cabot made a very pretty tackle through ninety-seven's interference, stopping the play on her 30 yard line. In a few minutes '98 carried the ball down the field to within five yards of the goal and lost it on four downs, but White's off-side play gave them the ball again and Cabot carried it over the line. Redpath kicked the goal.

Cabot caught the ball from ninety-seven's kick-off and ran twenty yards. Then by long gains '98 carried the ball to the twenty-five yard line. Here she fumbled it and Scannell picked it up and ran the length of the field. He was tackled within 10 yards of the goal and Bancroft, the referee, blew the whistle to stop the play. At the same time Garrison got the ball from Scannell and carried it over, but as the referee had stopped the play, the ball was called down on the ten yard line. It was pushed over the line a little to one side and Garrison missed the goal.

During the rest of the game the play was loose on both sides. Each team scored a touchdown and kicked a goal, giving '98 the game. Score, 12 to 10. The teams lined up:

NINETY-SEVEN. NINETY-EIGHT.

Smith, l.e. r.e., Bull.

Connor, Sleeper, l.t r.t., Ames.

Hovey, l.g. r.g., Woodward.
