for the annual match. Shattuck won,
CO. The consensus of the opinion is
m men an and that the life { Of the game has
been saved. AS to the most important
phase, injuries, there were none. The
short kick, dreaded in advance by
coaches and directors as sure to- produce
injuries, was resorted to constantly by
both teams without signs Of injuries re-
sulting. The spectators were intensely
interested in the opensfeld work: Punts,
short kicks, forward passes and tricks
were constantly resorted to.
While forward passes and short kicks
were working often today, no one of
these plays brought a score: An. I'M
usually brilliant bit of work on the part
of Martin and Lewins of Shattuck pro-
duced the score. After battling thru
three-fourths Of the game with no score,
East high was forced to punt on her
thirty-yard line. Lewis broke thru cen
bounding ball was cleverly handed by
Martin. and aided by the interference,
Of Kipp, the Shattuck half ran forty
Yards for touchdown and the game.
