This play was worked with considerable success a couple of weeks ago, but yesterday three of Burr's long passes hit the ground without being caught.

There were many fumbles on both sides, owing to the slippery ball; but the second gradually lost ground to the 25-yard line, from where the first's touchdown was made by Apollonio after a series of line plays.
