At the end of the irst half it was impossible to judge 'hich team would win, although the period ended with the ball dangtr- usly close Jo the Varsity goal and be Aggies pushing it along in iUau oiler fashion. The home team registered their score In the third quarter, A ser- es of brilliant rushes had taken the Aggies close to the Lobo goal; when he Varsity got the ball they tried a orward pass, which waa intercepted by Westley, who ran it back for the Aggies.

After three attempts to break through the Varsity he Aggies pulled a trick pity in the shape of a forward pass to Sluaser, vho slipped over the line and received it for a touchdown. Wilfley kicked goal for the Aggies. The Aggies stuck n'rnost exclusively to straight football, relying on the ability of Jones and McGary to Mr through the line for trains.

This waa the piny which put them within four yards of the Ag- gies' goal in the last quarter. With their backs against the wall the college eleven showed what they were made of. Four times the Varsity hurled themselves against Bergman's line and each time they failed to get through, finally loeing the ball oa the fourth down, with only one yard, go. Then the ball went over to the Aggies and JonM punted out of eWngtr. The two Jones brothers, playing on opposite sides, were of their respective teams, with McGary, of the Aggies, running close behind them.

The game was characterized by clean snorietnanshlp and grit on both sides. There were lew- penalties and iuwor errors. Both Coach Bergman and Jones, of the Varsity deserve the highest praise for the training exhibited by their respective teams. Nearly three thousand people witnessed the game, the cars beini parked three and four deep behind the sidelines on all sides. In the evening there was a banquet at McFie Hall for the two teams.
