RUNS Up BIG SCORE
Princeton Goes Against rlonticello and
Rips Up Sod Of Gridlron With
the contesting Team.
Game From Start Ia Favor of Prince
ton But nonticeIIo Boys Put
Up Splendid Fight.

By the decisive score of 81 to the
Princeton high school football team
clearly demonstrated their superiority
over the Monticello high school team
at the fair grounds last Saturday.
The Princeton team played hard,
snappy game all the way through,
circling Monticello's ends for large
gains, puncturlng the line at will and
pulling off several forward passes
that bordered on the sensational. The
Monticello boys played a plucky but
hopeless game, their plays were block
ed or spilled up before they could get
fairly started, the Princeton ends
would not be boxed and the Princeton
line was impenetrable. The Monticel-
10 offense seemed hopelessly weak
and their line could hardly hold the
Princeton forwards long enough to let
Peterson get his kicks away, many of
the punts going straight up in the air.
The game was called at 2:30 p. m.
Capt. Roos won tie toss and chose
the west goal. Princeton kicked off
to Monticello and the ball was returned
10 yards. Monticello could not gain
and on the third down punted to
Galley, who returned several yards
before being pulled down. Jesmer
ripped into the line for 8 yards and
Berg added Is more on line smash
through guard, and Roos went
around Monticello's right end for
35-yard run and a touchdown. Roos
kicked goal. Score, Princeton 6,
Monticello Q. Princeton scored again
just at the end of the first half, Berg
and Jesmer working the ball up to
Monticello's 15-yard line and Roos
going through the line so hard that
the impetus broke the holds of sever
al of Monticello's wouldbe tacklers
and rolled him across the goal line
for Princeton's second touchdown.
Princeton came back strong in the
second half and romped around the
field almost at will, scoring four more
touchdowns and making the total
score 81 to O. Galley uncorked all his
trick plays and the team responded to
a man, Angstman, Robideau and the
backfeld pulling off series of for
ard passes that the Monticello de-
Tense could do nothing with. One
trick play from Roos to Jesmer netted
Princeton, a touchdown and Jesmer
grabbed in midair the only forward
pass that Monticello attempted to
negotiate and ran rs yards with it for
a touchdown. Robideau pulled off
several snaky dances down the field
that we're good for long gains and
made the Monticello tacklers look like
a lot of will -'o-the-wisp chasers.
Angstman on the other end played a
strong defensive game and caught
several long forward passes for good
gains. The backfeld worked good,
giving the man with the ball good in
reference, hitting up the line and
running the ends in regular varsity
style. Galley worked the team we'll
and made good returns on the punts.
The center trio, Pohl, Wikeen and
Shaw, did things to the Monticello
| offense and were often back in the
plays before the Monticello back6eld
could get under way. Umbehocker
and Stay at the tackle positions did
themselves proud, opening large
holes for their team mates on the
offense and smashing everything that
looked like interference on the de-
tense.
