The timekeepeTs' whistle sounded
shrilly over the gridiron at about 3
o'clock, and the ball went whirling
in the direction of the south goal. by
virtue of very clever kick by Elton
of the High school eleven. Harrington
gathered in the leather and sped away
for several yards with it. Tanning
took up the work where Harrington
LETT on. and went around the end with
the ball for several Yards.
Then the flaunters OF the red and
black got the ball and there was Joy
in the midst Of the High School shout
ers. But some one Numbered and the
ball faded like the baseless fabric of
a dream from the High Schedules, and
was gathered up to the wide bosom of
Allen.
Then Tanning made a wondrous
punt and sent the ball even beyond
the goal, where Robbins took occa-
brought back to the 25-yard line. and
the High School made the kick-off.
Allen got away with the ball and Rob-
bins tackled him cleverly. Tanning
sprinted around the end with the
leather, but Meakin closed in on him
with firm embrace, and brought him
to the gridirOn. WhereuDon Howell
secured the leather and made a beauti-
ful run and curbed not his spirit until
he had gone % yards away AS he
went out of the bounds, ere ball was
carried back 20 yards.
Meakin then rushed away fleetly
with the leather and Topped off gain
OF 10 yards. Tarpey did likewise for
about ten yards.
The High School at this point de-
voted its time to bucking the center
during which the ball fell into the
hands of the wearers of blue. The
High School got the leather again AL
most Immediately, and Meakin and
Johnson each carried it a long pace
towards the goal. Then Howell Rugged
the ball TO himself and sifted fhronph
the opposing line like papers, carried il
beyond the goal and scored the fret
and only touchdown.
The High School failed to kick goal
and the ball went back to the center
line.
The next kickoff landed the ball in
the hands of Meakin, who showed
that there were moments when he
wished to be alone. Howell again
made one OF his great runs and carried
the oval 20 yards from the enenv's
goal A moment later he was again
careering over the gridiron. Hedger
and Johnson then did some heavy re-
cruit work around the ends. johnson
bumped against the center and strug
gled through twice for gains of three
and four yards.
The boys with the insignia of blue
on their breasts at this point concluded
they needed the ball Therefore thew
took it and Tanning made a kick which
was sad, sad affair. Some mysteri-
Gus youth crept away with the ball.
but there was a foul, the referee said.
and the pigskin was brought bacr,.
The ball went to the red and black ar q
Robbins attempted to disappear with
it, hut was halted after brief sprint.
Hedger got well under way around the
end, but Tanning tackled him beauti
fully
Howell fumbled the ball and Allen
al once appropriated it.
Tanning made a good, wholesome
punt, which sent the ball about %
yards Meakin got the ball and made
small gain. which Hedger succeeded
with a still longer one Howell was
stopped short in one of his spectacular
exits by Harrington. The ball fell to
Talon, who made a good play through
the center.
The leather again went to the High
School. but Tanning cleverly captured
It, and the first half closed with the
ball on the 25-yard line of the All Hall
ows' goal.
The second half opened. after a lapse
of about ten minutes, with great -four
ishing of trumpets. Robbins got the
ball Immediately after the kick, but
his hands did not stick to the leather
and Tanning gracefully dropped upon
it. Allen succeeded in making a hole
through the center and placed the ball
several sheets to the forward.
After that Tanning fondly took the
ball on charge and did a succession of
very wonderful things with it. They
kept speeding around the ends wher-
ever they listed. The All Hollows
likewise made war on the center and
pushed through for gains whenever
they pleased. After a wonderful series
of runs by the Fannings. Kiely got
the ball and attempted to pass around
the end. He met some sturdy inter-
ference from the rallying High School
ties and the ball went to the red and
black banner
Howell scored one of his hair-curling
runs, and several more yards were
hoped off by Hedger, whereupon the
High School lost the leather.
