fJtarted an early offensive which soon
netted them a touchdown. The completion of a long forward pass made
possible a second touchdowni in the

In the third period the Stroudsburg team opened up on long and

place played a brilliant game at fullback. This was Plummer's first appearance in the T. C. line-up.
