LeRov Wins Game By Small Score The football game between LeRoy and Burlington resulted like practically all of the other games between these teams, in a victory for the visitors by a very small score, the Winning point being made in the last minute of play. The game was one of the closest and most interesting ever played here and was witnessed by a good cowd. The teams were evenly matched and played good clean foot ball. Of course there were errors due to lack of practice but it was interesting throughout.

LeRoy made the winning run in the last half minute of play when they made a touchback which counted them two points. The game was free from slugging etc and was only marred by the accident to Martie Bradford of the Burlington team in the closing play.
