But in the second half Williams was a trltie the better, perhaps owing to the many substitutes that Dartmouth used. Dartmouth’s negro right end near the close OF the second halt seized the ball which had been knocked out of the Will llams halfbacks hand by a Dartmouth and ran about 60 yards until he stumbled and fell. At the time he seized the ball it was within few wards | Of Dartmouth’s goal line.
