How the Play Came Up.
Mahoney kicked off for 40 yards. Kill
roy caught the ball and returned it five
yards before he was gathered into the
arms of big Sam Davis and downed.
Sam Emmons went through left tackle
for five yards and Wilson then took the
ball and plunged through center for four
more. Kilroy went over right tackle
for three yards and Wilson again hit
the center for two. Kilroy tried left
tackle, but met Gritfiths, who stood like
a stone wall, and prevented gain.

tackle. In the next lineup Herbold
almost alone stopped a mass play and
again there was no gain. quarter
back kick was blocked by Davis and the
ball went to Butte on downs.
In the first lineup three yards was
gained through the line and then came
Browns opportunity, which he so clev-
erly acquitted himself of. The ball was
passed to Griffiths, who was to be sent
outside of right tackle. but he fumbled
and the ball rolled out on the ground
Instantly Brown snapped it up and was
off for goal. Snelson interposed him
self in the runners way, but Brown
lodged him neatly and sped on. There
was no one else to stay his progress,
and no one could overtake him. Like
deer he went to a touchdown. Smell
sons failure to tackle was one of Ana
condas weakest plays, and it undoubt-
eddy cost the game, at least in sense.

and the score stood Butte 5, Anaconda
0. The touchdown was made in exactly
six minutes of play.

by gaining a yard through left tackle
and guard. Inman annexed another
gain of two yards through right tackle
and Wilson made the necessary two
more through left guard and tackle. In
the next lineup Wilson pierced the line
like a javelin, going through center,
and it looked like a big gain, when
McHollster came to the rescue with
one of the best tackles Of the day and
downed the man with the ball, allow
ing him only six yards to his credit
Wilson fumbled the ball in the next
lineup, but Sullivan fell on it in time
to save it to Anaconda. Sam Emmons
Ia fhrn,,o1, 1aff tackle and

was forced back and lost four yards
