| went VIII LdIl4GS ttlhE0 q u ~iANS 1l-4-
cult goal
The Quakers trotted out from under
their .goal-post slightly dismayed. but
still with lots OF fight in them. Hoyt
kicked off to the fve-yard line and the
bail was returned ten yards. 1t was Won
eerful how quick Paramount formed her
interference on a punt or kickoff. The
man with the ball was instantly sur
rounded b. a solid phalanx of men and
plunged into the imperfectly formed
defense Of the Quakers.
An END run netted twenty yards and the
Friends spurred by desperation, held the
| Fairmounters for small gains until Barnes
was forced to punt. The ball went sail
Ing into the air for forty yards and into
the arms Of Hoyt, who was downed be-
fore he could take one step forward. 1t
was Friends bah on the 1orty-yard line
and the nrst time they had a chance to
show what they could 90 IA offensive
work. AIDES was given the ball and
skirted right end for twenty yards The
Qualers were not slow in forming inter
ference when they had the bah and the
heavier men experienced some trouble in
breaking it up.
On the very next play Rich fumbled the
ball and was downed ten yards behind
the line. They were forced TO punt and
Rick kicked the bali twenty yards and
the Fairmount back was downed on their
twenty-yard line.
On the first play the Quaker ends broke
into the Interference and downed Softer
three yards behind the line. On the next
play Senter broke through the line and
tackled stahl for loss of ten yards.
Paramount was forced to punt or do some
thing else to gain ground. They tried a
criss-cToss fake, bat the backs fumbled
the ball and Jordan picked it up and
was downed for another loss of three
yards. Barnes punted the ball out Of
danger on the next play and the Friends
again had a chance to show what they
could do with the bah on Fairmount's
Afty-yard line.
On the first down Fairmounts line held
but Senter went around the end for three
yards and line-bucks brought the bail to
Fairmount's thirty-yard line. Here Rich
tried a place kick for a goal, bat failed
and Fairmount kicked of from their
twenty-five-yard line
Rich caught the bah while running and
before he was down had carried it TO
Fairmounts thirty-five yard line Hoyt
then tried a place kick Tor a goal, but
failed and it was Fairmounts ball on
their hve-yard line
Two crossbucks through the center car
ried the ball nine yards and Kirk went
around the end for twenty-five yards.
Smashes into the line brought the ball to
the Friends thirty-ysrd line when the
Friends were penalized ten yards for Off
side play
Here the Friends seemed demorallzed
for at every play the Fairmount backs
moved up the ball from six to eight yards
at clip. 1t reached the Friends five
yard line and the lightweights, desper-
ate, caeered to make one stand to prevent
a touchdown. but almost overcome by the
onsloughts of their opponents, fought
with a vengeance. The bail was too near
one side Of the field for Paramount to try
q place kick for goal and the Friends
line held them for downs. 1t was Friends
ball On their Vineyard line.
Determined. desperate and courageous
the little Qaakers flew into that Fair
mount line Ike a pack OF bull dogs and
they made the fur fy for the next few
minutes. It was the most terrible play
ing ever seen in the Southwest. Stirred
by the loyalty of the friends on the side
lines and by the thought that their old
ere mics would add to their score. they
vent at their opponents line hammer
ard tones and fought their way by
snail gains down to the 25-yard line.
