The normal were winners: the score
being 6 to o in favor of the normal
team. The foot ball game on the nor
NAL grounds yesterday was one OF the
most interesting and holly contested
games ever fought on the gridiron.
A large crowd gathered early and by
fair the largest gathering assembled to
the grounds. Numbers were over from
Phoenix and Mesa. The Indian team
had a number of rooters who worked
hard but the normal team had rooters
galore with a waving mass of colors
of maroon, old gold and white, which
also tipped the goal posts and had an
inspiring effect on the home team. The
game was called at 3 o'clock with
Charles Christy for umpire; Charles
Woolf, referee; Fred M. Irish and Prof.
MCGOWAN, linesmen. The normal line
up was: Davis, c; Sigala, r gt Carter,
l G; Ruse, r t; Wagnon, ! t; Goodwin,
e; Penn, l e; Waigler, b: McGrew,
h b; Shute (captain), ! hi b; Woolf. q
b. The normal had the kick off. Haig-
Ter with a strong kick sent the ball
far down the line and the game was
on The Indian team were all solid and
heavy with the famous BararageS
Buck as full back, and at first with
their revolving wedge made steady
gain till the home team became ac-
quainted with their plays and won the
ball on downs during the first part OF
the game The normals showing ex-
cellent tackling qualities and Wagnon
and Penn here did some fine work
tackling and downing the Indian with
the ball. The normals made slow but
for the normal regained the ball and
made a hard fought gain of twenty
five yards This was not only the first
game Carter ever played but the first
one he ever saw, and throughout the
game he played with such GOODNESS and |
energy that he was loudly applauded |
time after time. Several times within /
forty yards of the normaFs goal each /
team lost the ball on downs and on one |
Indian tumble Ruse got the ball and |
carried it forward ten yards, then sew |
eral good runs were made by the In |
dams. but by the tackling of Haigler |
and Woolf they were stopped within
fifty yards of the Indians goal where
the home team became aware that the |
ball must be stopped and on the third
down without gain, the Indian teams
only resort was to try to kick the ball
through the goal, which they failed to
do, the ball going far to the left; this
put the ball back in the field and after l
several downs without much gain
Sigala's successfully breaking into that
revolving wedge several times and
downing the ball. The first thirty-five
minute half was over and the score
o 10 o. In this half the Indian team ap-
peared to be too heavy for the normals.
The second half opened with the
indians kicking off. Here the normals
seemed to have renewed energy and
made several good gains. Haigler
backed by Sigala, both being especially
swift runners, broke through the Indian
team and Heagler with that powerful
straight arm knocked down several
large Indians and followed closely by
Sfga1a made a run of fully two-thirds
the length of the field, simply running
away from all others and making q
touch down by which they scored five
points; this brought the grand stand
down. and the entire assemblage
surged over to the normal goal.
Haigler then sent the pfg-skin
high into the air and over the
goal. thus scoring another point
making a score of to in favor .
Of the normafs and the second half but s
rightly begun. The ball was taken to
the center of the field with the Indian {
team having the kick off. Twice the
ball was kicked over the far line and |
then the ball went down in the nor !
mails hands twenty-five yards from
the INDIAN teams goal and from that .
On the normals We're too heavy and |
witty for the Indians. The ball passed
from one team to the other several 4
times. though the normaIs We're gain
ing considerable ground. Gain after
gain was made by the nOrmaIs espec-
ally by Haigler who, with good back
ng and interference with his powerful :
shot forward with several :
ten and fifteen yard gains and then
the Indians gained the ball on downs
