second quarter after Howard !md
registered a six point lead v.hen
LaMar broke off right tackle for
18 yards and Baskerville ran aroun i
his' left end for 15 more folio". ' il
by a series of short gains by La
Mar. Baskerville and Smith, who
had replaced Lewis at fullback, and
a five vard penalty against How
ard for offside that gave Lincoln
a first down on Howard s one yard
line. After two trys Captain
"Spank" Smith dived through cent

was good for the deciding pom;.
