Broken Field Running

Tuffy Leemans, one of the greatest ground gainers of the year, thrilled the season's record crowd by cutting through for the first touchdown. His sparkling broken field running left the Packers flat-footed as he streaked for the initial touchdown of the big game.

The cheers of the crowd turns to groans as Ward Cuff missed the kick for the extra point. The chief booter of the Gients, however, soon. gained a big hand from the fans when he hung up three points by kicking a field goal.

Leading by nine points, the Giants apparently slackened in the second quarter, but they were forced to spurt when the Packers revealed exceptional fighting spirit to make two touchdowns, both of which were converted. The Giants, however, came through with a touchdown that Cuff booted for the extra to lead at half time, 16-14.

Clark Hinkle and C. Muleneaux were the leaders of the Packers, each scoring a touchdown in the second quarter.

The crowd went wild with excitement in the third quarter when the Packers continued to crush the stout Harrop, Hammond, f. Taylor, f. Rodgers, c. Nosoft, Sheridan, g. Parkhill,' g. defence of the Giants and staged merch after march toward the New York goal line.

Although the Giants blocked the holes well, the Packers were not to be denied and Tiny Engebretsen scored a field coal to put the western champions into the lead, 17-16. He Emw Vita scored from the Giant's 15-yard line. eleceee
