Second Adams tally was chalked up in the third frame, when Dick Craig, who played a great game all afternoon from his flank post, snatched a Lowell pass from the air, and, with a clear field ahead, scampered down the sidelines to the promised land. The conversion was missed. Lone Lowell marker came in the dying minutes, as a Murphy to Sorlien pass, that had connected earlier for a score, but had been called back on account of a clipping penalty, saved the Bellboys from a white washing...

...against the Crimson several weeks earlier. Around the ends and on pass defense the Bengals are not supposed to be as strong, but in these directions the Crimson has not sparkled offensively. Except for his end around plays.
