Behind the Line

CHAPTER XI
9/25

In the second half Erskine made further changes in her team.

Cowan took Witter's place at right-guard, Reardon went in at quarter in place of Bailey, and Neil, who had watched the first half greedily from the side-line, went in at left half.

Cowan was taken back of the line for a plunge through tackle.
