...each other and both went out for the referee; Goopher was game but went out for a rest for the rest of the game. Yale was penalized fifteen yards for gaining. Murphy tried a forward pass but there was a slight breeze to windward and the ball went wild. No wonder. So did the crowd. Bean complained to the umpire that they were stringing him.
