Dean Academy defeated the University second football team at Franklin yesterday in a close and hard-fought game by the score of 10 to 7. The second team's attack was chiefly line-plunging, while Dean had a varied assortment of wide end runs and forward passes. The two teams were evenly matched for most of the game. Each side scored a touchdown in the second quarter, the second team on a forward pass to Stanton, and Dean on an end run, after open play had brought the ball within ten yards of the goal. In the fourth quarter Dean...

The sprinting straightaway is 250 yards long and 27 feet, 6 inches wide, and provides ample room for the slowing to a walk at the conclusion of the 220 dash and hurdle events.

At all other points the track is twenty feet wide. The 440-yard...

Yale's touchdown came in the first quarter as the result of a fumble on the forty-yard line, Legore soon scoring on a wide end run. However, the diversified attack of the opponents' backfield began to pierce the Yale defence, fifteen first downs being recorded, and both touchdowns following beautifully executed forward passes. With apparent defeat imminent the Yale team fought fiercely, but the Washington defence tightened up and repeatedly threw the Yale backs...
