The Princeton high school football
team added another bunch of bay
leaves to their football crown by de-
feating the Elk River high school
team on the latter's grounds last
Saturday, the final count being Is to
O. Two weeks previous to this
Princeton had beaten the same team
"a to at the Princeton fair grounds
and football dope pointed to another
victory for the orange and black.
But Elk River had been up against
the fast St. Cloud eleven and had
learned considerable football, al
though suffering defeat at the hands
of the Sanity City players. This ex-
perience, together with two weeks
practice, put them in fairly good
shape to give good account of them
selves when the Princeton team
arrived for battle.
Elk River won the toss and chose to
defend the north goal, the wind
slightly favoring this end of the
field. Robideau kicked on to. Elk
Rivers l0-yard line and the ball
was returned Is yards. Then Elk
River went at it hammer and tongs
and succeeded in making first down
several times before they could be
be Id for downs. By this time they
had rushed the ball we'll into Prince
toms territory and the crowd was
wildly yelling for touchdown, but
the Princeton defense stiffened, the
forward progress of the ball toward
Princeton's goal line was checked
and Galley booted the ball back to
the center of the field. Once more the
Elk River offense went at it in smash
ing style and again had the ball
we'll down toward Princeton's goal
line when the whistle blew for the end
of the first quarter. Elk River easily
had the best of the argument in the
first quarter, but being somewhat
lighter than the Princeton boys, they
wore themselves down on the stubborn
Princeton defense.
Princeton came back strong in the
second quarter and, getting the ball
on their own 25-yard line, rushed it
down we'll into Elk Rivers territory
by end runs and line smashes that
Elk Rivers defense was unable to
stop. On Elk Rivers 25-yard line
Galley signaled for a forward pass to
Angstman and the latter Sc
cured the ball we'll out in the
open and ran through the Elk River
tacklers for a touchdown. An off
side play was called on Elk River
at this point, but Princeton refused
the penalty and the touchdown was
counted. Robideau missed goal.
Score: Princeton, 5; Elk River 0.
Encouraged by their score the
Princeton team went right back to
their smashing style of play and
gradually worked the ball towards
Elk Rivers goal line again. On Elk
Rivers l0-yard line Berg was given
the ball for a plunge through the line,
and before he could be stopped he had
crossed the goal line with several of
Elk Rivers back6eld tacklers
dragging behind him. Score: Prince
ton, 10; Elk River 0. Before any
further scoring could be done the
referees whistle blew for the end of
the second quarter.
In the third and fourth quarters
Princeton repeated their scoring
tactics, Robideau getting away for q
long run and a touchdown, and Berg
putting drop kick through the Elk
River goal posts from the 25.yard
line, making total of 18 points for
Princeton.
After the first quarter Princeton
played strong game of football on
the offense and defense, Fisher and
Briggs carrying the ball consistently
on short end runs, plays off tackle
and cross bucks, and Berg smashing
big holes through the Elk River line
for substantial gains. Robideau and
Angstman covered the end stations
and Elk River found them to be pretty
tough propositions to get around.
They also handled the forward passes
we'll, each one Of them getting away
for touchdown. Jack and Pohl
played the tackle positions and Jack
proved a veritable whirlwind on the
defense, smashing through the line
and breaking up the plays and forma-
tions before they could get fairly
started. Pohl made his best showing
with the ball, carrying it time after
time for long gains through Elk
Rivers line. Fullwiler, Umbehocker
and McCool played the center trio
and did their share toward adding
another victory to the orange and
