HURRAH FOR REDWOOD.
High School Foot Ball Eleven VanquiShes
Granite Fails Team.

UIdultC Rails lCdlu.
On Thanksgiving Day the Red
wood high school eleven played
their last game-wlth the Granite
Falls high school eleven-and de-
feated Granite by a score Of % to g.
Mr.. Wells of Granite Falls and
Mr.. Wallace were referee and UNI
pire and the time keepers were j.
A. Schmahl and one of the Granite
aggregation. The halves were of
% minutes duration and the game
in detail was as follows: Redwood
kicked to Granite and the ball was
dOWned on the ten yard line. Req
wood quickly got the ball on d punt
by Granite and in the first two min
uteS touchdown was recorded No
goal was kicked: however. When
play was resumed Granite made
touchdown and also kicked goal.
Then the ball was advanced by
Granite to the middle of the field.
where it was lost on downs. In
about three plays Redwood carried
the ball back to Granite $ 20 ward
line. Time was called. however.
before another touchdown was
made.
After an intermission Of ten min
utes the ball was again put into
play, being kicked off by Granite
Red wood then got down to playing
and played the fastest game she has
done yet. In II minutes two touch
downs and a goal kick were record
ec and in about eight more minutes
Of play another touchdown and goal
kick were added to the fast incrpas-
ing score. No more points were
made ana the game ended with the
ball well in Granite s territory.
Throughout the last half Granite
did not have the ball at any time
Redwood's S favoritc gamers were
wedges and end runs, although line
bucks usually worked we'll. The
first three touchdowns were made
by Allan King and the last by
Frank Theiring. The individual
playing on the Redwood team was
excellent. That of Robert Steven
soB the new end, was especially
good, for he made two long end
runs and whenever given the ball
could be counted on for a substan-
tial gain. The backs played their
usual hard game, the work of Frank
King being excellent, as he fire.
quently dragged along two or three
of Granite's s giants The work of
the line was also excellent, espec
tally in the last half. A pleasing
feature of the game was the enthu-
siasm and good will shown toward
the boys by the business men Of the
town. The crowd was larger than
usual and in general kept off the
gridiron quite well. This game
was undoubtedly one of the best
Of the season. as is shown bv the
score.
Redwood now holds the cham
pionship of Southwestern Mime
soti-. being by comparative scores
II points ahead of Marshall and 12
ahead of Pipestone. Redwood> also
has the credit of not being beaten
and also scored on bonce during
the season. The record of the Red
