BROOKINGS I5---HURON o.
The S. D. A. c. Foot ball Team Too
Much for Huron.

About 200 people from this city in
Guiding the college band went to De
Smet Saturday to witness the game OF
foot ball between the Huron college
and s. ID. A. c. teams. Only about
fifteen people were in attendance from
Huron. From the Huronite we CLEAN
the movements of the ball:
Huron kicked off first to the south
goal to Brookings' 10 yard line. The
Farmers returned the ball Is yards.
They then steadily advanced the ball
to about the center of the field. Fail
ing to make their distance here they
punted. The ball rolled up to Huron
goal line, was picked up by John Dob
son and returned for about five yards.
Failing to make her distance Huron
was forced to punt. The ball was only
kicked about 10 yards and was imme-
diately returned the same distance by
Brookings who caught it. Brookings
was penalized yards here on an Off
side play. But she soon made this up
on line smashes and after little over
minutes play had crossed Huron
goal line for touchdown but failed to
kick goal.
Huron next kicked off to north goal
dropping the ball on the Farmers 10
yard line. On account of an offside
play on the part OF Brookings the ball
had to be kicked off again. 1t was
again dropped at about the same place,
but was brought back by the Farmers
| for 10 yard gain. The ball then went
to Huron on downs and she in turn
passed the pie back to Huron on
downs. The Farmers then made 30
yard punt, but it was fumbled by Dob
son and Mouser and again was in the
possession of Bookings. After TAX
ing a penalty of 10 yards, the Farmers
punted out for about 20 yards. Huron
then punted back about 30 yards.
Brookings, failing to make her gains,
again punted to our 10 yard line. The
ball then remained about on the 25
yard line until time was called.
SECOND HALF.
Brookings kicked off to south goal
to Is yard line. Blake carried pig-skin
back 10 yards. Roberts carried ball
around end for 20 yards. Ball is then
passed to Brookings on downs; gained
Is yards on a mass play over Huron
tackle. Brookings then carried the
ball stradily down the field, smashing
through Huron line like thousand
OF brick, until they had reached HUI
ron 10 yard line where they were held
for dOWns. Huron punted out but the
ball was carried right back and soon
was taken across the goal after 123
minutes Of the hardest fighting our
boys had ever experienced. Brook
ings again failed to kick goal.
Huron then kicked off to the south
goal to Brooking's yard line. Car
ried back 20 yards. Brookings then
also forced to punt. But the pig-skin

goal and Brookings made their third
touchdown after about seven minutes
play, but failed on goal kick.
Huron again kicked off to Brookings
Is yard line. The ball was being
steadily worked back toward Huron's
goal when time was called.
| The Huronite makes an apology for
the failure Of the "jimmies" to have
beaten the "farmers, stating that
their best man oversight at Highmore.
Now Highmore is nice quiet place,
| but we didn't know it was necessary
to send Huron people SO far away in
order to secure a nights rest. How
ever the explanation is accepted with
thanks.
Those from here speak we'll of the
treatment they received from the hands
OF the people of DeSmet and the best
of feeling exists between the two teams
