but Weak
ST. Vlncents, II; Law School, 8


When weight and cleverness met on
the Fiesta gridiron yesterday the lat
ter quality in the makeup of a foot
ball eleven demonstrated it's superb
ority and the light weight st. Vincents
easily romped away from their more
beefy opponents, the University of
Southern California law school team,
by the score of II to 3. The first half
of the contest was a ragged affair ow-
ing to the miserable showing made by
the barristers, who seemed to be af-
fected with stage fright and played a
loose game throughout the half, allow
ing their opponents to make two touch
downs which resulted in II points.
In the second half the future attor-
neys made a more creditable showing
and went into the game from tht start
with vim and determination to at
least keep from being shut out, which
they succeeded in doing when c. De-
cius sent the pigskin spinning between
the goal posts with a perfect place
kick The saints also succeeded in
scoring in this half in the most spec
tacular play of the game. RAIDER was
given the ball on the law schools 40
yard line, and with a scattered forma-
ton interceding for him he plunged
down the field for the goal, shaking
off tackle after tackle, and when on the
5-yard line with several of the barris-
ters hanging on he was pulled along
for a touchdown by Gates. This touch
down coming so suddenly and when
the future attorneys were making their
best showing of the game, completely
put a quietus on the law school Sec
tion of the grand stand.
RAIDER Is Star
Shortly before the first half closed
RAIDERS nose was broken, but he con- /
tinued in the game, and during the lull
in the battle between halves, finished /
the game playing stronger than ever. |
Tortez is another of Rheinschild's /
braves that tore time after time
through the heavy but weak line of the
losers, while Neighbors' punting was
another feature in the general good
playing of the Saints. Casey's work
also was good and his line bucks made
good gains for his team.
Cass. c. Decius. Selph and little /
Quarterback Cohen, while he lasted,
were the main spokes in the makeup OF
the Law school lineup. Through De-
cius' steady right foot when he sent /
the ball spinning between the goal
posts in the middle to the latter half,
the Barristers were saved from a shut |
out. The nervy quarter while he lasted |
saved his team many yards by going
in and downing one of the Saints, tear
ing down the field with a low tackle.

being received by Selph and returned .
to the Law schools thirty-yard line, /
where Selph was forced to kick. The /
Saints Immediately went after. the line /
and marched right down the field. But |
Referee Trager stopped it when he |
caught Capt. Murray doing some rough |
work, and for awhile it looked as if
the captain would have to leave the
field, but a compromise was made and
the Saints We're penalized twenty-five
yards. Cohen fumbled and Rhein-
schilds got the pigskin. RAIDER punted
to Cohen and c. Decus carried the
ball around the Saints left end for
gain of ten yards, but Selph was forced
to kick The Saints from then on
made steady gains through the Law
schools weak line and i'm fifteen min
utes of playing had scored their first
touchdown. Neighbors failed to kick
goal. After this touchdown by the
Saints the Barristers seemed to lose
heart and anothe touchdown was

II to 0.
Lawyers Stronger
The Barristers opened the second |
half like they intended to do some |
thing. Decius kicked to the Saints 30 |
yard line and the Law school held and /
RAIDER was forced to kick McGregor /
replaced II. Decius at left half. Selph |
punted TO RAIDER and McGregor downed |
him in his tracks. ICkes relieved |
Cohan at quarter and added vim to the |
Law school playing. RAIDER made a |
gain of 90 yards around the end, but |
was forced to punt An exchange of |
punts put the bah in play on the Law |
schools 40-yard line and RAIDER given |
the ball, tears through for touchdown, |
which is turned into six points by a /
goal. Decius kicked we'll over goal |
line and the ball is put in play on
the Saints 25-yard line. When Law /
schools ball, Decius tried for goal /
from the Saints 45-yard line, but fell .
short; shortly after his try from the |
25-yard line scared between the posts. /
After this neither goal was in danger, |
