The Baptist College, Tigers who
are better known as the Champs"
cave Tuskegee the same tast of bitter
defeat this afternoon, as they gave
the Fisk team the Saturday previous.
FIRST HALF.
The teams were equal in weight, and |
nearly equal in swiftness The game
was called at 2:3O o'clock D. m. Tus-
kegee kicked to Baptist College. The
Tigers" received the ball and re-
turned it twenty yards Tuskegee
h1ld them for downs. By cross bucks
and end runs and forward passes, she
made some progress. Finally A. B. |
c. held them for downs and the ball
hanged hands. The game was a kick
ing game in the first half. When the
Tigers got close enough on the goal,
they tried for place kick, but failed
to make it,
Both teams were playing hard and
fast tall There was no scoring in
this half. The principle, features of
this half were the forward passes of
Tuskegee and the tackling of A.. B. C.
During the intermission pandemon-
ium reigned supreme among the
hooters of A. B. c. The Tuskegee
rooters were sure then of an even
break as both teams seemed equally
matched Everybody was at a wonder
as to whom the victory would be given
Baptist College was still confident of
victory. Not one time did the rooters
! feel doubtful of victory, but they then
knew that it must be dearly paid for.
SECOND HALF.
This was the half in which all the
scoring was done. During the inter
mission Coach Archer told his ma
chine something, at any rate we saw
the effects Tuskegee kicked to A.
B. G. and she returned the ball fifteen
a ds BY straight line plunges, cross
51ols, and forward passes, in three
minutes Charles Hubert took the pig
skin over for the first down He then
kicked a difficult goal. The friends
Of A. B. c. went wild and the rooters
were filled with joy. Young men be-
came as little boys and old men be-
came young again. Some lost their
some their dignity. Baptist College
licked to Tuskegee. Tuskegee re-
turned it ten yards. The Tigers"
then held Tuskegee and she kicked
John Davis received the ball and re-
turned it fifteen yards for A. B. c..
Then Walker called Capt Hubert who
is better than Terry of Howard, and
nearly as good as Gene" Allen of
Howard, through Deacon" Arnold
for a long gain. Then Bob Turner
netted off five more off end. He then
called "Vic" Turner and when Tus-
l;egee stopped him, he was behind the
goal line declaring it to be another
touch down. Zobe kicked the second
goal. Baptist College kicked to Tus-
kegee. She did not keep it long before
she fumbled it and Sandy Jackson
