said they were going to. The High
School put it over the Punahous by the
score of 10 to 0 and we can t help feel
ing glad that they were successful
after the way they have worked for vic
tory and practised their interference,
which by the way, was really excellent.
In spite Of the heat the players kept
up to snuff all through the game and
showed wonderfully little effect of the
heat. 1t was really good football that
they played. Those who watched the
game will agree with me when l say
that I have watched many big games
of both the Rugby and intercollegiate
varieties but have never seen more
speed shown individually nor better
tackling.
The tackling was simply superb. The
players seemed to have an innate fac.
ulty for this kind of work. Time and
again some swift back would get away
round the ends, his interference clear.
ing way for him and then there
would be an apparently clear field for
him. But he never got there. There
was always somebody in his way and
the ensuing tackle never failed. 1t is
very evident that the boys have learned
/ the first principles of football, to
tackle low and tackle hard.
Feature of the Game.
The feature of the game was the
wonderful drop kick of Henry Chill.
lingworth near the end of the first half.
|, The High School had the ball after it
had gone out of touch and were almost
in front of the Punahou goal. They
made fake formation for place kick
but, instead of placing the ball, Henry
Chiliingworth dropped back, took the
ball and, with swift movement, punt.
ed the ball clearly and squarely over
the center of the goal.
1t was beautiful piece of work and
the High School rooters on the makaf
4 side of the field went as nearly crazy
4 as rooters can and we all know how
A near that is. This play was the Gull
animation of campaign of confidence.
4 The school players seemed to know that
they had the game and, never predicat-
ing loss, went down the field for gain
after gain, made by straight bucks,
cross bucks, end runs, forward passes
and every old kind of play you could
think of.
Andrews Clever Run.
Andrews score of the one and only
touchdown was a very pretty piece of
work. Without taking away one jet of
the credit due this peerless punter,
there was kindly element of luck in
the score. The Punahou signal called
for punt and Andrews blocked. Oh
/ but that was a sweet block. One of
the ideal kind. He jumped up and
q took the ball squarely on his chest and
the pigskin bounded away from him.
1 think it must have been Lota who
kicked. for there was nobody behind
him. Just at the time the play took
place was lodging through the crowd
to see what was happening and big
High School rooter was in front of me
I could not see the kicker distinctly
but I did see Andrews as he leaped il
the air.
Then, of course, saw what follow
ed. Andrews was facing and moving
s the same way as the ball and so hat
the advantage of the other side. HI
ran for the ball and it just bounced a
the right time so that he scooped it oil
the run and romped over the goal line
placing the ball squarely between tn
s posts, without chance for anybody t.
catch him.
Scorer Kicks Goal.
= Not content with blocking the kick
catching the ball and scoring, Andrew
must cap the climax by kicking tn
goal and it was very pretty littl
"root' that sent the ball flying owe
the goal posts. Andrews has grea
name for kicking but, however big hi
reputation may be, 1t is far beneat
the exhibition of putting that he pm
up yesterday afternoon. If he eve
plays the Rugby game he will he
tower of strength in the back line fo
he can punt far and certainly, fndin
touch every time if he wanted to.
Mceandless was given much NOR
work to do than in the last game, an
he responded nobly. Some of hi
bucks and end runs were magnificent
also his way of breaking through tn
line and tackling the holder of til
ball before the latter knew what ha
happened.
Rice altogether redeemed himsel
for past fumbles. He was given til
ball only for plays that suited hi
and he was as sure as fate in freezin
