A fighting Orange team trotted on the
field at the opening of the third quarter
and the Eastern team literally swept the
lluskers off their feet and by straight
football carried the ball to the 15 yard
line. Here Meehan hurled a perfect
pass to Matt Brown over the line, who
leaped Into the air to catch It ana
fought his way to position for Meehan

tho line again a little later, but Thompson was off side and the ball was called
back. Meehan drop kicked a goal from
the 25 yard line as the third period
