Very tough-The Visitors Lose snap
After Bob Bingham's Phenomenal
sprint Across Field.
Yesterday afternoon the University
School team of Knoxville paid second
visit to Asheville and for the second time
celebrated Thanksgiving dav by game
of football with Bingh ham school. TIE
train from the West was nearly an hour
late, 50 that it was long past the ap-
pointed hour when the two cleveus faced
each other on the field at Allandale.
The dav was perfect, and the zoo people
who were not Cetaired at home by tur-
key and cranberry sauce were well re.
warded for coming out. Ii was one OF
the most interesting football games yet
played in Ashevillc.
The game opened with 80 yard kick
off by the visitors. Captain Anderson
OF the Bingham team brought the ball
back 10 yards, was storped, lined up his
team and gained two yards more
knoxville got the ball and failed to gain,
but on second down advanced seven
yards through the lire. Newman, {.
captain then made five yarts through
the line, followed BY rushes of five, three
and three yards respectively nv Lee.

them somewhat, and b yd made only
one yard. Newman, {. tried right tnl,
but was tackled by Anderson without
gain. Lee advanced two wards, Boyd
another and the ball went over on the
five yard line. Anderson gave the signal
for the full back himself to "hit the
line" but failed to get his hands on the
ball. 1t was quickly scared bv Captain
Bingham, however, who went round
right end and, beautifully protected by
White, succeeded il passing all the backs
and making a touchdown behind The
goal posts after an unprecedented run of
lO5 wards. Anderson HI krd goal.

Up to this point the game was X OK

more than a touchdown with young
players. 1t changed the idc. Knoxville

In speaking OF the good playing
