The second football team played a scoreless tie with the Brown second team yesterday afternoon. What should have been a victory for the Crimson team was lost by a piece of hard luck. Towards the end of the third period N. P. Johnson '17 made a 15-yard pass to T. A. West '18, who caught the ball in the forward pass zone over the goal line, but because the ball had grazed the goal post, the touchdown was disallowed on a technicality.
This game was the final one of the season team. P. Zach '19 and J. W. Pennock '17, at right and left guard, stopped many plays through the centre of the line and opened up big holes for Johnson to gain through. The latter ran hard and nearly broke loose twice for touchdowns but was downed by the Brown colored halfback, Williams, who overtook him after he had got clear of the rest of the field. Johnson had two opportunities to score drop-kicks but both attempts failed.
