Playing through a schedule of four games, the 1928 eleven won three engagements, but lost its final tilt with the Sophomores, 16 to 7. In the play-off last week, the Junior outfit eked out a 6 to 0 triumph on a blocked forward pass, that gave it the University inter-class gridiron laurels...

And when those winds...

The Tigers put over a touchdown in the second period after Lawler had recovered Putnam's fumble of one of Slagle's kicks, and later on in the period added a safety when a pass to Coady kicking behind his own goal line went too high. This made the score 9 to 0 in favor of the Orange and Black, and this is the score which will probably be accepted as the correct...
