ping with tricky Gavin, ,..who was opposite him.
Quimby retired on account of injuries In the
end of the half, and Harrais finished out the
game creditaby. Baxter played steady and
aggressive game throughout Ford's playing as
usual was strong and mis- tackling brilliant.
Randall WAS al left end during the first eals
aud, as he always does, played sharp suappy
game In tbs second half he dropped back TO
Dickey's place al right half, where be also
played we'll
Back of the line Folsom did some pretty rum
ming. He WAS cut OFF whenever he tried the
ends. bat managed two or three times to wr'g-
gle through holes in the line for good gains.
His interference was by far the best done by
his team.
At quarter-ba Darlington showed up ex-
eeedngly we'll for one with so little experience
His passing was almost perfect and he followed
the bali sharply wherever ii went
Atktnson's best work at full back his
kicking. and this he did in superb style. Sew
eral fine gains were made IS a result of his
well-direeted punts and tho quick work of the
Seattle line in getting down the field after
ball in time to stop return OF II.
For Portland Savage showed up as q tower OF
strength, especially in the wedge plays. Frazier
at center aud Greer at lett guard were both
badly oyermntched. Holt played steady game
at right tackle, and honOrs were even between
him and Baxter. Al the two ends Powell ana
Greer did good work
Capt. Railcy handled his team TO perfection
AMI did brilliant individual work. He was
quick as a eat in pouncing upon the ball when
ever opportunity was gwen and did ths best
tackling OF the day.
Ellsworth used good headwork In his run
ming and took advantage OF the interference
afforded him by the other Portland players.
One feature of his play was the way in which
he always lunged forward when tackled, SO as
to still gain little ground.
LassweI's best work was done in bueking the
line which he did in fine style Mcdonald also
did well IN this respect but was OF no service in
kicking.
