No quarter was given by either sicle and these students showed how rugby football should be played, although a high and gusty wind made conditions difficult.

It was now anyone's game but a brilliant try, which will ever be remembered on this famous
| ground, by the South African three-quarter, C.B. Van Ryneveld who dribbled 70 yards to go over spectacularly, increased oxford's
lead.
Cambridge, however. were atli far from beaten and when the whistle went it was they who were on the attack. Oxford were supposed to be weak at half, for which reason Cambridge started slight favou. rites, but it was the strength of the half back division, notably the brillianer of the South African stand-off half, M. Hofmeyr, which just weighed the scales in the balance to Oxfoyl.
