The Sophomores defeated the Freshmen in the second game of the interclass series yesterday by a score of 5 to 0, thus earning the right to play the Seniors tomorrow for the class championship.
The playing of both teams was very loose and was characterized by frequent fumbling and a long succession of penalties for offside play and interference. The Freshman team played sluggishly on the defense, and were unable to take advantage of their opponents' frequent fumbling. The Sophomores, on the other hand, met the Freshman attack with a good charge, and were often successful in throwing the opposing backs for a loss. The work of Metcalf of the Freshmen, and Dall of the Sophomores, was conspicuously good; the former for his excellent punting, and the latter for his fast end running.
In the first half, the Sophomores, after twice forcing the Freshmen to punt, received the ball on their own 30 yard line, from where on long gains by Dall and Robeson and severe penalizing of the Freshmen, they advanced the ball 80 yards for a touchdown. Robeson missed the goal from a punt out.
During the second half, the playing was greatly impeded by darkness and the crowding of the spectators on the field. The Freshmen were more successful in checking their opponents' advance, and after receiving the ball on a fumble, attempted an unsuccessful goal from the 30 yard line. Score--Sophomores, 5; Freshmen, 0. Touchdown--Robeson. Referee--O. F. Cooper 2L. Umpire -- O. F. Cutts 3L. Timer--A. H. Morse 2L. Linesmen--R. Winsor '05 and H. H. Whitman '06.
