Brown Second Team Defeated

The second university football team defeated the Brown second Saturday afternoon by the score of 11 to 0. The game began shortly after 2.30 o'clock, in a drizzling rain which made the handling of the ball very difficult. Harvard's heavier team had a decided advantage under the conditions, but its superior team work showed that on a dry field the score would probably have been greater. In the first period Harvard secured the ball on a fumbled punt by Brown and rushed it down to the 2-yard line. The period ended here, but in the first play of the next quarter Chenoweth carried the ball between the goal-posts for a touchdown. Saltonstall kicked the goal. During the rest of this period and the whole of the next the ball went from one end of the field to the other time and again, but there was no scoring. Chenoweth and Hardwick made good gains through the Brown line, and Saltonstall's punting was very effective. Hardwick was taken out during the third quarter but was sent in again in the last, in which he intercepted a forward pass and ran 50-yards for the second touchdown. The attempt at goal missed by a few feet. Following this almost all the fresh men were put in but there was no more scoring.
