The referee classed the latter play as touchback, and gave Yale a free kick from her 25-yard line. This was of no avail, however, as Weeks carried the ball over again for n touchdown on the first lineup after this kick. 1t was a beautiful run OF about forty-five yards, in which Weeks lodged several of the Yale players, in Guiding Captain Mcbride, and carried the ball squarely between the goal posts.
