E. Duffy and W. D. Ball judges, Fred. Richmond captain for the sophomores and J. Van In wagen for the freshmen. The kickoff was gained by the freshmen, and Wisner did it well.

The freshmen forcf-d their opponents back by main streogth and won the first goal. They were nearly wild with delight, yelling "Roo I Rah ! Roo ! Ninety-two," till they were hoarse.
