Hilton fumbled the ball, and Newell was on it like a flash; scrambling to his feet he threw off the man who had tackled him and rushed 40 yards before he was stopped. Alward followed with a run of 35 yards, and Sherwin gained the necessary yard to score the last touch-down of the game; goal. Score, 54-0. Time was called five minutes later...
