Bull Routes Ball Team.

Angered by Brilliant Sweaters, Animal Pursues College Boys.

The Dickinson College football team of Carlisle, Pa., had an encounter with a mad bull which gave the boys the chase of their lives. The team started on a cross country run and a few miles above Carlisle jumped over a fence into a pasture that contained a herd of cattle. The broad and brilliant red and white stripes of the hurdling athletes startled the cattle and they broke from shelter and tore across the pasture in advance of the flying wedge. The college boys were enjoying the disturbance when an old bull, lowered his head for a charge. In an instant the strong phalanx was turned into a scattered line, running for the nearby highway. The bull followed, crashing through the fence, and chased the fleeing youths a mile and a half down the pike, where shelter was secured in a barnyard.
