The car was crowded at the time

RELIANCE NEARLY SCORES.

Dillon kicked off and Gaffey brought
the ball in few yards, when he was
heavily tackled. Reliance could not
make her distance and Heitmuller went
back to kick. 'Heiney' booted the
ball high in the air johnson nailed il
and slipped through Hamilton's fingers
and was downed by Cavanaugh. The
Indians soon scored another touchdown
and again Johnson kicked the goal

ball on(the Kickoff and never lost it.
Their fast backs skirted the lines and
their backs bucked through guards and
tackles at viii. Within another ten
minutes the fourth touchdown was
made. Johnson kicked the goal.
At this juncture, Coach Warner sent
in fresh lot of braves. Johnson was
cheered as he took his place on the
side-lines. Dinsmore was put in by
Pete Smith and his fast work behind
the line aided his team materially. The
Reliance got the ball on the kick off
and to the surprise of everybody made
their distance every time. They met
a plucky resistance, but they were play
ing like demons and to save themselves
a whitewash. The Indians took
brace when the ball was on their
f1fteen-yard line and secured the ball
on downs. The whistle blew at this
time and the game was over

CONTEST rs FAST
AND INTERESTING,
SAYS COACH WARNER

T T was a good game and 1
enjoyed it immensely. 1
II was not alarmed when the
Reliance team started to carry
the ball down the field in the
first half, as / knew IL could
not last. The men were much
heavier than the Indians and
i knew that when we gained
the ball we would score. The
Indians always play a fast
game. The men who composed
the Reliance eleven were good
players, but lacked proper
training. With good coaching
they would do well against the
Middle West aggregatiOns.
Football on this coast does not
differ much from that played
in the East. The teams out
here are fast and understand
the game. HeitmulIer, who
played right tackle for ReIi-
ance, is a good player. Most
of the gains made by Reliance
were through left guard and
tackle.-Coach Warner in an
interview.

FOOTBALL CONTEST.
SAYS REFEREE REED

~ ARLISLE played a
mighty fast game; in
~ fact, the fastest game
seen on this coast this season.
The Indians appeared to be
light, but they played hard
football. The Reliance team
lacked condition for one thing.
and this made them weak i'm
the second half. The California
men were gritty and played to
win. JOhnSon's playing was of
a high order. He was cool and
used good geneFalship through
out the game. He encouraged
his men at all times and his
words did much to make his
team play harder. The Indf-
ans did better than L expected.
They had Travelled thousands of
miles and were not i'm as good
condition as they were earlier
in the season. Ii was a gentle
manly game, neither side re-
sorting to rough tactics. The

last Christmas. the Multnomah Ath.
letic Club team and an eleven COM

players of the University of Oregon
struggled to a standstin in a football

The defensive work Of both teams was
so strong that the fierce line playing
of both sides was unavailing.
The game was characterized by the
inability of the backs of either team
to make am runs and the constant
center playing resorted to was equally
unprOductive of consistent gains.

FIGHT FIERCE AT FIRST.

The beginning of the game was ex-
citing. 1t took some time to pick the
winner. The Indians won the toss and
kicked off. Reliance carried the ball
back forty-five yards without losing
it. Martin, Mueller, Geissler and Heit-
muller were all good for substantial
gains. Carlisle's coach began to look
serious. Johnson gave his men a
talk between two downs and the red
skins held three times on their thirty
FIVE yard line.
The Indians tried two center plays
and failed to gain. Johnson then
booted the ball sixty yards. Leadbet-
ter came back ten yards and McGil-
vray sprinted to the center of the field
on fake kick. The Indians held for
downs and got the ball Sheldon and
Charles each made substatial gain.

got it. He had a clear field, but had
made but thirty-five yards when

with that of Johnson. Dinsmore did
particularly well at line plunging after
he got into the game. The Indian
halves found the line rather solid.
On the point Of punting the teams
seemed to be about evenly matched.
Johnson kicked over Leadbetters head
once for sixty yards. Most of the punts
were too short to amount to much in
the making or prevention of scores.
OFFICIALS WELL CHOSEN.
BILLY Reid as referee and Major
Collins as umpire gave entire satisfac-
tion, both to the teams and to the
spectators. Both men were as fast as
the Indians and conducted the game
in splendid shape. The other officials
performed their Iabors in a competent
manner. The field was perfect. The
weather could not have been better.
Reliance fumbled only two or three
times and the Indians but once. The
whites tackled too high at times The
redskins laid hold OF the man with the
ball as a terrier grabs a rat The In
dians' interference was absolutely with
out flaw. Some one was always ahead
of the runner to bowl over an op-
pcnent Reliance was fair on interfer-
ence, but showed lack of practice in
this respect. The play throughout was
clean and without slugging or rough
work
Heitmuller played an excellent game
a. tackle. Hamilton did nobly at end
for part Of the game, but it took him
quite a while to start. Charles and
Williams were next in line for honors
on the Carlisle team after Johnson.
The one great disappointment of the
game was that Dillon did not put the
ball under his sweater and run the
length of the field for a touchdown.
The Indians were much better on the
offensive than defensively. Their line
was none too strong. Exactly the same
condition prevailed on the side of the
opponents. This years Stanford team
would have played a pretty and an
even game with the redskins from the
East.
