The try for extra point, a tricky Kenary to Mazzone pass from place-kick formation, failed, and the game's scoring ended with the Yardlings victorious...
After holding long scrimmages on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Mac held only a short kicking drill yesterday and excused the team early apparently satisfied that all is ready. The Crimson goes into its seasonal finale in reasonably good physical shape, although neither of the contenders for the right wing slot, Jocko Smith and Curtis Cate, are in top shape and fullback Dick Forster is out with a broken ankle...
