SEASON.
NEARING THE END: RESULTS OF THE LATER ENGAGEMENTS.
New York, Dec. -All but the last of the 1922 gridiron battles were fought in the United States to-day, Remaining are a few of the intersectional contests, some post- season games for charity and one or two more big football clannies in the south. For the remainder of the season, gridiron enthusiasts will have to be content with professional games which lack the colour" and spirit of the cullegiate sport.
Following are the scores of the leeding collegiate football games i played in the United States to-day:
