Yesterday afternoon the 'Varsity second eleven defeated the senior class team by a score of 12 to 0, in two ten minute halves. '98 was not very strong on the defensive and the second managed to break through their line rather easily. This seemed to be due principally to the fact that the men in the senior line failed to get down to the plays, standing too upright so that they were easily forced backward. The '98 ends were also slow in getting down the field on kicks and sometimes failed to tackle the fullback. The second played their usual snappy game. Wadsworth, Gray, Hoague and Graydon showing up especially well. For '98, Riggs, Flershem, Stone and Vincent did best.
The line-up:
Second-Stoddard, l. e.; Gray, l. t.; Bumpus, l. g.; Hoague, c.; Trainor, r. g.; Littig, r. t.; Graydon, r. e.; Maguire, q. b.; Livermore, l. h. b.; Hanavan, r. h. b.; Wadsoworth, f. b.
'98-Curtis, l. e.; Rice, l. t.; Stone, l. g.; Marvin, c.; Hennen, r. g.; Holmes, r. t.; Flershem, r. e.; Vincent, q. b.; Riggs, l. h. b.; Adams, r. h. b.; Emmons, f. b.
