HIGH SCHOOL.
WAS VICTOR

Victory seemed just ready to perch
on the Mills banners yesterday after
noon until disastrous tumble fol-
lowed by quick work on the part of the
High School eleven gave the last foot
ball game for both teams this season
to the latter team by the score of six
to nothing. 1t was hard fought game
from start to finish and if it had not
been for her disastrous fumbling Mills
would have won by a reversal of the
above score. Mills was held for downs
but once during the entire game while
her opponents We're held several times.
Mills rushed the bali much farther
than the High School but could not
hold on to the ball at critical moments.
This fumbling is undoubtedly due to the
fact that the Mills team has no team
to lineup against them for practice
regularly which is certainly a detri-
ment in the training of a successful
team.
The game was clean and fast from
start to finish. There was some offside
but remarkably little for young teams.
High School showed some ability In
running the Mills, ends while Mills did
its best work in heavy plunges through
the line. Akina, the Mills full is a
phenomenal line bucker and would be
a credit to any of the interscholastlc
league teams. Time and time again
he smashed through the opposing line.
often with practically no support,
wriggling and squirming along for sew
eral yards after he was tackled. His
team mates all played good ball.
High School had a good kicker and
with the exception of one kick that was
blocked and one of Akina's punts his
kicking was superior to that of the
Mills man. High School did a little
line bucking but their longest gains
were around the ends. The team held
on to the ball better thaQ their oppo-
nents and it was this that gave them
the game They played clean game
and showed themselves a first class
team.
THE GAME
At 3:10 High School kicked off and
Mills started the hall back by buck
| ing the line. High School seemed I'M
able to hold them until the forty-yard
line was reached when a tumble by
Mills gave them the ball. High School
started in with rush and pushed the
ball down the field until they lost 1T
on downs on the Mills thirteen-yard
line. The ball seesawed about in the
Mills half of the field the rest of the
half with Mills getting somewhat the
better of the yardage
Mills kicked off to the High School
who We're defending the Waikiki goal
at the beginning of the second half.
The ball was pushed by the High
School up to the Mills forty-five-yard
line and there lost. Mills made her
first down once and then occurred the
play that gave the game to the High
School. All Miu called the signal for
left end around the right but passed
the ball high. Chin Man fumbled and
White of the High School. who had
broken through the line caught the ball
and ran fifty yards through clear field
to touchdown. Goal was kicked. On
the next kickoff Mills ran the ball into
the High School territory and it look
ed as if they might score but a fun
BILE lost them their chance and the re-
mainder of the game resolved itself in
to a punting duel between Akina and
the High School kicker.
