The Hilltoppers’ redoubtable backheld gained at will through the line and around the fanks of their opponents, while the forwards not only held the Southerners, but threw them back for LOSSES time and time again. The stands were we’ll filled and crowd estimated at 5000 saw the team which had played mag nifcent foot ball against other elevens in the south carried away by the onslaughts OF an infinitely better outfit.
