Time 22 minutes. No goal. Score 18-2. B. Trafford made a fair catch of Hall's kick. Vigorous work by Lee, Saxe, Stickney and Blanchard brought the players within five yards of Wesleyan's line. On the third down B. Trafford broke through the centre and made a touchdown. Time 25 minutes. No goal. Score 22-2. On the kick off Slayback made...
