GRAND JUNCTION WINS
IN FOOTBALL GAMES.

The two Grand Junction teams, one
representing the high school and the
other the Grand Junction Athletic
club, were both successful on the grid
iron. the former in an exciting game
with the Indians from Teller insti-
tute Saturday, and the latter taking
the game from the Aspen team in a
desperately played game Sunday
AS was expected the game between
the Indians and the high school boys
Saturday was very close and intense
ly exciting. Both teams having re-
Gently won from Fruita by almost the
same score. hard game and small
score We're anticipated.
The teams were evenly matched,
the high school having a little the
best of it in point of weight and team
work. There were times, when the
Indians got down to their fast work,
when they went right down the field
and when time was called at the end
of the first half they had the ball on
the high schools 15-yard line. The
high schools team work was too
much for the bucks however, and,
try as they might they couldn't keep
Hoy and Addley of the high school
team from carrying it over; one goal
was kicked. making the score / | to
o At the end of the first half The
Indians scored and kicked goal in
the second half. making total score
of II to 6. The high school team is
improving every game and their
work in Saturdays game was certain
ly good.
1t would be hard TO say who play
ed the star game. Addley did splen-
did offensive work as did Wells and
Hoy. For the Indians Regan, Vav-
ages and Luna did good work.
The game Sunday was one of splen-
didly displayed valor and skill, but
the odds were against the boys from
Aspen, fierce line plunges and swift
end runs against which the visitors
We're powerless had their sway, and
bravely fighting every inch of ground
to the bitter end Aspen tasted the
game of defeat.
The nome team were little late
arriving on the field. which delayed
the game until o'clock. The home
team out played the visitors at every
stage, but it was a hard fought bat
tie. In the first half the ball was car
ried for a touch down for Grand juno
tion which was the only one made
during the game. Grand Junction
had the ball the best part of the first
half and was carrying it down the
field for another touchdown when the
first half was up.
1t was in the second half and
about the end that excitement was at
its height and pandemonium reigned
supreme. With about five minutes to
play the Junction lads had the ball
a very few yards from the goal, and
touch down seemed inevitable. They
gained the distance and still the goal
was not reached and time was called
with the ball almost. If not, touch
ing the line. Ii was a difficult point
to decide, and the referee called no
touchdown. The score was to 0.
Too much cannot be said of the
positively brilliant work of Todd,
Williams" Pugh and Regan, while
the defensive work of Hinken, Dyke
and Smith was simply great. All OF
the boys of the home team put up u
good game Van Hoorebeke, their
center was sick and Carpenter took
his place, playing a good game. Hard
tonight, closely contested over every
line. the game was clean through
ont. There were no serious demurs
on either side and fairness character
ized the decision on every point.
skill was matched against skill, game
sDirits against game spirits and IN
the end superior skill won. When
the visitors had the ball they were
unable to gain, when they tried rishl
end there was Hinken, and when they
tried around left end they had to ae-
count for Todd and it was like hitting
the face of a drift to try to gam
through either tackel. For the Aspen
team Hansen, Marles Cree and Shee-
nan PLAYED the star game The
game was witnessed by about 400
people. Everyone seemed alive TO
