Confined Work to Open Plays.
(From Sunday S Daily.)


The opening game of foot ball in
Watertown was played yesterday af-
ternoon on the Sacred Heart campus
between Sacred Heart and Menomonee
Falls. Sacred Heart was the victor
by score of II to @.
The game did not abound in any
team confined its work to the more
open plays and these counted in the
end. Menomonee used nearly all
man outside tackle and this was
found to be ineffective in gaining the
necessary ten yards in three downs
One or two inch plays were used by
the boys on lhe hill but these were
not especially effective or their eff
cheney was not perfected.
Menomonee kicked off to Sacred
Heart and soon forced the Catholic
boys to punt and Huffert recovered
the bail with 25-yard gain. A
few short gains made the first down
again and the first touchdown was
scored by Dodds on a quarter back
run of about eight yards. Dodds
punted out and McGlym made fair
catch but the wind took the ball away
from the posts. Score: Sacred Heart,
5; Menomonee Falls, 0. Time, 8
minutes.
Sacred Heart kicked off and held
their opponents for down and forced
them to punt. The ball see-sawed
up and down the middle of the field,
Sacred Heart using It's formation out
side of tackle made constant gain.
The touchdown was made by Tom
Martin on a 12-yard run outside of
tackle and McGlym kicked goal.
Score: Sacred Heart, II; Menomonee
Falls, 0. Time, 16 minutes, 40 sec
onds. Half ended after goal was
kicked.
SECOND HALF.
Sacred Heart kicked off to Menom-
once Falls and Drummer brought ball
ba OK about ten yards. Sacred Heart
resisted stubbornly and d punt was
necessary and Parsons kicked As yards,
with the wind. Sacred Heart, using
her same formation, ruled off few
white lines and then was forced TO
punt. Again Sacred Heart proved it
was fairly we'll in defense and another
kick was made by Parsons. Martin
and Morrissey brought the ball up
the field by g. and 8-yard runs, but on
misplay Sacred Heart lost ground
and McGlym punted to the 3-yard line
where after two unsuccessful efforts
Menomonee was forced to give up
the oval. Finally, I. Martin was
dragged and pushed over the line for
a touchdown which McGlym easily
converted into goal. Score: Sacred
Heart, IT; Menornonee Falls, 0. Time
II minutes.
Menomonee had it's choice and COM
PEELED Sacred Heart to kick, who i'm
mediately were forced to kick. Here
Kalish was substituted for Carroll
and Mayhood took the position of
quarterback, McGlym retiring and
Dodds going to halfback. The ball
was in Menomonee territory all this
period but Sacred Heart could not
seem to force it over. The game
was called with the ball on on Me-
nomonee Falls 25-yard line in posses
sion of Sacred Heart. Final Score:

NOTES ON THE GAME.
Game was Clearly contested and no
penalties for unnecessary roughness
were given.
A few penalties were given, mostly
against Sacred Heart but these were
not fragrant violations, merely due to
the nervousness of the team.
I. Martin was the most consistent
ground gamer for Sacred Heart
Mayhood's lodging and long runs
were spectacular.
G. Powell of Menomonee was fine
on open field tackling
The work of the officials was excel
lent and not a point was contested by
either team.
Rueth is an earnest player and
plays we'll for new man at the
game.
Watertown. you are enthusiastic.
Attendance, three people and a goat,
and the goat butted in.
