THE LOCAL TEAM WINS
ON SCORE OF 23 TO o.

The Grand Junction high schoo'
eleven proved too fast and heavy for
the Fruita team, winning from them
on score of % to 0.
II was seen from the signal pruc-
tiee of both teams Just before the
game that the visiting team easily
purchased their opponents. As a
history OF the game would simply re-
cord series of advances around the
ends. through the line and any old
place. we will let the score tell the
tale Five minutes after play began,
Wells. the functions nervy. little
quarter and captain carried the ball
over the line and another five minutes
saw Hoy plunging through for
another touchdown. Before the game
was over Hoy had another to his
credit and Hickman had circled the
end for a long run and oueh-down.
In the course Of the second half
Grand Junction had the ball almost
to Fruita's goal when il went over.
and in attepting TO kick Fruita was
thrown back for touch back. adding
two points to Grand functions score.
The Fruita boys played plucly
up hill game. but were clearly out
elassed at every turn.
Grand Junction S lineup was prac-
tically the same as when they played
with Delta. the team, however, being
weakened by the failure of their
regular left end, Bunting. to partici-
pate on account of a bad arm.
4 decided improvement was MOTTO
ed in the work of the Junction lads as
team. they showed hard practice
and good coaching. Mi. Welsh is Civ
ing the boys the advantage of his
several years of experience and his
faithful efforts are NOT wasted or nm
appreciated. The boys expect a game
on their own grounds with Lead
vile about Thanksgiving. They Will
probably go TO Delta Saturday to play
