The Second Battalion of the Fou

Marines yesterday "proved their superiority" over the First, Battalion Ssixeman football squad, as they piled up lauchdown after touchdown to come through at the long end of 0 o. $0" score.

The game was featured by long passes, with Dupont, tricky quarto Back of the Second' Battalion doing most of the hurling for the winners. The majority of the touchdowns were scored on long throws by. either Dupont or Pack.

The heavy, line of the Haiphong Road squad kept the First Battalion G: well out of the way of the passers, the winners kept calling pass play after pass play, with nearly three pass plays in four downs.
