TWO THANKSGIVING
FOOT BALL sCRIMAGES.


team came down to our town last
Thursday to play the Pennington
Tigers, and il proved one of the
most interesting games ever pulled
off here. Both teams were in good
form and the playing was swift and
exciting, but as the result showed
the teams were pretty well matched,
the score being and 3, tie. One
of the st. Louis boys, Witbach, had
| the misfortune to carry home a
broken arm, but little things like
that are not thought much of in n
football game.
The lineup for the Tigers were;
Cole, left end; DeGrant, left tackle;
Rarlden, left guard; Gordon, center;
Young, right guard, Murphy, right
tacle; Grove, right end; Smith quar-
ter; Pipkin, left half back; Nations,
full back; Klein and Moore, right
half back.
CARLETON-MARNI
The Carleton team went down TO
Fredericktown on Thanksgiving to
play the Marvin College lineup,
and here is the report they make:
Did you ever have the pleasure of
attending football game where the
field judge penalized n man for be-
ing offside, and the offender was
promptly penalized Il by the field
judge? Did yon ever, in your whole
| life, see the referee run up to the
field judge and ask him what to do
about certain matter? Or, again,
did you ever hear of the umpire not
being allowed to render n decision,
but being pushed back and the game
going on, Needless OF the umpire's
protests? No? Then you should
| have seen the Manifestation
game at Fredericktown last Thurs
day, when the local team forfeited
the game to Marvin, and thus los
ing the game, techinally, by the
score of to 0. Yes, it had all those
wonders and then some. In fact,
| IL had so many of them that the
Carleton team, overawed by such II
display of intelligence on the part of
the referee, left the field, so that the
gentleman might rest his tired brain
and think up new interpretations Of
| the rules.
1t is useless to go over the game in
detail, or to tell how the Carleton
backs tore great holes in Marvin's
line and made long distance around
the ends. A better idea of the game
can be gained when It is known that
Marvin made their downs once, on
II Harvard pass by Crow, while
length Of the field three times and
pumted seven times the whole game.
One instance will show Marvin's
ability to puncture Cartoons de-
Tense. At the beginning of the last
quarter, Marvin had the ball on
CarletOn's l0-yard line, through
Fertilization. On the first play Crow
made the best run Of the game for
Marvin, nine yards, putting the ball
on Carleton's vineyard line. On the
next play he made two feet more,
making It the third down and one
foot % gain; but Marvin failed and
! it was Carleton's ball one foot from
her goal Johnson now punted, but
| the kick was blocked and II was
Marvin's ball, first down and two
yards from goal. Two times Mar
win runner tried to make the dis
lance but failed, and then Crow tried
drop kick, but 1t was blocked and
Carleton man fell on the ball on
Carleton's ten-yard line.
Evans was now called upon for an
end run and responded by making
forty yards around the right side OF
the line. But now Carleton was
called back and penalized fifteen
yards on the charge that Buck Hunt
slugged, Qmagine IT'D AS fifteen
yards would have put Carleton be-
hind her goal line, the distance was
split and II was Cartoons ball on
her own five-yard line. This was
the straw that broke the cancels
/ back, and after u consultation II
was decided to forfeit the game to
Marvin, as polite way of showing
Cartoons resentment. This they
did, and now Marvin has the credit
of winning a glorious victory.
The lineup for Carleton was:
Taylor, right end; Roberts, right
tackle; Chandler, right guard; May
berry, center; Bloemeyer-Hunt, left
guard; McClafiin, left tackle; Kin
kead, left end; Jones, quarter back
Evans, left half back; Johnson,
right half back.
