...afternoon. Although the Maine aggregation put up a game fight they could do nothing against the heavier, more experienced players of the Crimson team. Except for frequent fumbling the game was marked by few early-season blunders. E. L. Casey, Occ., started by his clever runs through a broken field, once for 45 yards and again for 65. W. J.
