The football game at Finkle's park
! Thanksgiving afternoon was in reality
nothing more than practice game for
the Marshalltown team, and even at
that the practice was poor, owing to
the inability of the Hampton eleven to
put up anything that in the least re-
sembled a football game. Ar no time In
the game was the visiting eleven visible
in the play, and not for a single time
during the two halves did they carry
the ball the required distance. The
game can be summed up in the score,
which was made UP of twenty-four
| touchdowns and one goal from the field.
From the touchdowns Salisbury kicked
nineteen goals. The visitors could
neither gain the few times when they
had the ball nor could they keep the
home team from tearing thru the line
for big gains or racing around the ends.
often for almost the entire length of the
! field. 1t required just little more than
a minute to place the ball behind
Hampton's goal for the first touch
down. After that it fairly rained touch
downs, as it required only an average
of less than two minutes for each. The
score at the end of the first half was
So to o.
One of the pretty features of the first
half was the goal kicked from the field
to Salisbury. Ten more touchdowns
were added during the last half of the
game, which was not concluded until 1t
was almost dark. For the home team
every one took hand in the score max
ing, altho Salisbury, Perry, Kent, Give
Kirk and George Powell carried the ball
for the greatest distances. McCord,
Shoygard, Hemingway. Roberts and
Church for the Hampton eleven played
the better game. Burt Roberts, right
end for the visitors, suffered a fracture
| of his nose and was compelled to leave
the game. He was replaced by Soper.
The game was a great disappoint-
ment to the 600 spectators who had
hurried thru their dinners in order to
reach the grounds in time iand many
left before the first half was over. Only
a few of the more enthusiastic remain
ed for the last down. The game of
Thursday closed the season for the high
school team, and while return game
had been contemplated with Boone 1t
has been declared off. OF the nine
games played by the local team during
the season they have won but four, but

ents are almost four times as many as
scored against them. Below is given Q
