The punting or notn men w.as rar un der what they could have don had th ball been dry. i It certainly would hav been a great battle had the weather been mor .favorable to such style of play. As It was. thera wer some great kicks made. Clarke carried off the hon ors for the longest kU k, with one of 65 yards,, while Wolfe was close behind, with two which carried 60. Clarke lost considerable yardage, however, by hi kicks carrying out of bounds, for fiv times kicks which would have gone 40 or 45 yards went out of bounds after going but SO yards. Wolf had two such attempts go out of bounds, and also on punt blocked. Latourette's great running on Wolfe's punts did much to win tha. gam for Oregon, and mora than offset the small advantage which th O. A. ' C. man gained on exchanges. Several times h mads over 20 yards on these plays, anil one succeeded in covering 45 yards and twice afterwards 30 yards, running th ball up. 1 FIGURES 4VIIICH TELL COURSE OF BIG GAME 4 ...
