GAME IN BRIEF

rival, by the score of 2S to 0 in the
game at Aspen Saturday. The game
was won by superior training and
team work as well as by the head
work OF Quarterback Caldwell. Con
trary TO what was expected in the
high altitude the Grand Junction boys
We're fresher after the game than
were the boys who were al home at
that altitude There were many
spectacular plays and Grand Junction
worked the forward pass very effect
lively making fifteen successful passes
out of nineteen attempted. The game
was more closely contested than the
one-sided score would indicate.
Caldwell, McCary. Hines, Hickman
and Walker perhaps are as deserving
of special mention as any members of
the team and the entire back field
was too strong for the Aspen ends
and line.
The team returned on Midland 1903
and are In good condition today. Sat

dances enacted. The fol-
