feature OF this game was tho fact that
the. esult made it possible for every body
to "holler."
The teams were evenly mStched al
though Lamar showed up to little bet
tor advantage, and on two occasions .
timely pnnt Was the only thing that
saved JasPer's goal from being crossed.
One OF IAmAr's half backs was pro-
emiuently the star player IN the whole
game. The way he went through Jas
per's line was the leading feature OF the
game. Before the game was through
it was learned that this player was not
bona foe student of the Lamar school.
Consequently to oqualize the matter
Jasp-r decided to | lay VIM. Tallmau
and Troy Masters, who are not students
in the Jasper schools.
