...game started off with an unusual amount of vim and dash. The signals were given rapidly and the plays ran smoothly and in quick succession. Newton was fairly taken off her feet and was unable to withstand the fierce attacks made upon her line. A touchdown was scored within three minutes after play. During the remainder of the half, the ball was always in Newton's territory. Twice the ball was rushed to the 10-yard line only to be lost on downs. The line-men may deserve some censure for a lack of aggressiveness at such critical stages. Otherwise...
