Both teams spent the re- mainder of the first half trying to hold on to the slippery pigsl-zin. The Bulldogs had several sustained drives halted by fumblelitis deep in enemy terri- tory. After the intermission the Tigers scored again, and the Bulldogs made the score 15-7 on the strength of some great running by Buddy Chisolm.
