Morehouse tried the forward pass mt)re often than Union but only a few tiines was it successfully made. ; In the beginning of the fourth quarter Morehouse fumbled. Union received the oval, fumbled and recovered quickly and staged another series of end plays, resulting_ in Jackson getting around right end and making a spectacular 57 yard touchdown. His team- mates defended him\ admirably in his flight. Morehouse players dived after Jackson again and again, but Union’s interference was working. Jackson kicked goal. “Resorts to End Plays. Morehouse varied its style of playing somewhat. In this quarter the Georgia eleven resorted to end plays and forward passes. A couple of forward passes were completed nicely but the receiver failed to gain. In the last quarter Morehouse fumbled when the ball was well down in her territory and Union recovered it. The red and steel took advantage of this and carried the ball over for the third touchdown, and the game was over. “Wilson, a Norfolk lad, was substituted in the 2nd. quarter for C. E.
