State College Football Team Defeats
the Middle West Champions
From St. Louis.


rooters out from the shelter of the
grandstand to be soaked in the rain
along the sidelines. Pullman in the
first half had shown that she could
stop the terrific on-rushes of the bunch
from Missouri; now she. was showing
that she could make gains through
Missouri s line and around the ends,
ard when RAIDER was finally crowded
over for a touchdown, Spokane learned
what real W.S.C. spirit meant. Hahn
kicked goal, and Pullman had the long
end of a to score.

yardage. Down toward the coveted
goal line they would go, then fun
BILE or loss and the procession would
form again, and again they would
battle on. The st. Louis team carried
the fight to Nissen's men, but could
not drive them away. So the first
half closed with Pullman men defend
ing their own goal, and neither side
scoring.
From the kickoff of the second half
until the whistle blew for the close of
the game thrilling features galore
were presented. The work of RAIDER
in this half was little short of wonder
tul. 1t seemed that his onslaughts
could not be stopped. Starting as if
hurled from a catapault, he would hurl
himself into the line and as soon as he
struck mass of opposition, instead of
putting his head down and rushing in
madly and blindly he would take the
course of least resistance and with his
body whirling, go around for long
gains.
The state college kicked off in the
last half, the ball going TO the Mis-
sourians' left tackle, who ran it back
three yards. Schneider shot through
the line for gain of five yards and
st. Louis was penalized Is yards for
holding. An attempt to kick was
blocked, Cherry, the big Pullman CEN
ter, falling on the ball. 1t was then
that the superb plunging of RAIDER
showed at its best. The touchdown
was made in just four plays, RAIDER
carrying the ball three out of the four
times, each time for large gains.
During the state college fullback 8
last march he was literally pule3 out
of bunch of St. Louis tacklers and
dragged over the line for touchdown.
That long, thrilling cheer that went
up from the grandstand was worth
Drawing the worst of weather to hear.
Several thousand people had waited all
through the first half for that moment.
Keyed up to the highest pitch, hun
dreds of state college students had
waited and longed for that moment of
victory for weeks, and when it came
it was such a genuine demonstration
of the happiness coming from victory
long awaited that every one in the
grandstand was thrilled. There was
no attempt at yelling in unison Every
one yelled in his own way, and many
a mild-mannered man jumped up and
down on the seats, slapping his neigh
Dor on the back. When the excitement
finally subsided Joe Hahn booted the
oval over the crossbar, making the
score 6 to 0.
On the kickoff Hahn kicked the pig
skin back of the goal line and Schneid-
er punted out from the 25 yard line,
RAIDER dashing back 25 yards before
being downed. An attempted place
kick by the state college went trife
wild. On the punt out Nissen dashed

GAME IN DETAIL.

Promptly at two o'clock st. Louis
kicked off. 1t was long, high spiral
that RAIDER caught near his own goal
line. He fought his way back for a
few yards and then the real game was
on. RAIDER was sent into the line, Cave
went over tackle, Nissen made a gain
around the end and down the field,
yard by yard. the Washington eleven
swept the Missourians before them. 1t
looked as though st. Louis was help
less against that terrific line smashing.
RAIDER was a demon. He punctured
holes every where, and there was no
denying his progress. Then there was
tumble, but W.S. c. recovered, and
on the last down kicked to the visit
ors. st. Louis now began march to-
wards Pullman's goal. They lost on
downs, but again got the ball and
again they threatened the W.S.C.
goal. Acker was picking holes in the
Washington line; Robinson was fight
ing his way through the Pullman
tacklers, and Schnider was making his

reeled off 5 yards and while the state
college backs were mapping nasty
punt was dropped back in the water
by Nissen. Lamb, of st. Louis, falling
on the ball on the W.S.C. 20 yard
line.
Right here was where the Pullman
men demonstrated that they have a de-
tense that is hard to puncture. The
line stiffened and big Schneider was
thrown back for a loss of one yard.
Murphy, the heady little quarter. then
tried drop kick, which skinned along
the ground until it reached the line,
where it was recovered by st. Louis

attempted fake play on which Brennan
was downed behind his own line.

st. Louis territory. Acker plunged
off tackle for 2 yards and Schneider
dashed through the line for yard
gain. Acker was again given the ball
fer S yard gain and on the next play
Robinson was downed back of the line
by beautiful tackle by Prexie Bryan.
The state college was penalized 10
yards for unnecessary roughness. Then
the Pullman boys braced and Brennan
and Robinson were both piled up with
ont an inch of gain. Schneider then
attempted punt which was picked up
byRCherry at the line. 1t was at this

The state college was penalized Is
yards for holding and Hardy recovered
all but six of the distance with an end
run. Hardy tried a place kick from
the 35 yard line and was downed by a
st. Louis man who got through. Cave
then reeled off three yards and Hahn
punted to the goal posts. Robinson
fumbled the ball in a pool of water
and Wexler fell on it back of the goal
posts, giving the state college her sec
ond touchdown.
