Before the largest crowd of the sea-
son. Warren more than redeemed itself
saturday when II fairly overwhelmed
the heavy Upland team composed OF
the best players in Delaware county. II
was a great game one OF the best seen
on the local gridiron for years, every
inch of ground being hotly contested.
There was heavy wind blowing, which
chilled everything but the enthusiasm
of the spectators. It would have taken
n regular Texas blizzard to have done
that when Brinton went over for the
the first touchdown. And Mears! Time
and time again did he hit Upland's line
for big gains. If there was no opening
when he reached the line he made one.
His presence at half-back was un-
doubtedly big factor in Warren's VIC
tory Prentiss came on the field with
his right knee swathed In bandages, but
II an end run was necessary he never
failed to gain the required number OF
yards. ase .t.ft 1
