The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1911-10-26

The boys realized that the criticisms
passed on their playing by The Her
aid and many others were just, and
went in to redeem themselves. They
did it. and everybody is proud of
them.
Sauk Centres first score came after
eight minutes of actual play on a
pretty drop kick by Hansen over the
west goal after seesaw up and down
the field following the Wadena KICK
off. Wadena had been playing the
old line bucking tactics and had gone
through the locals line several times.
Sank Centre was trying out its oppo-
nents and finally showed the bal down
to within twenty yards Of the goal,
when Hansen placed drop kick that
went true and the crowd went wild.
Score: Sank Centre, 3: Wadena, 0.
Wadena again kicked Off and the
the ball was brought back ten yards.
On a forward pass ten yards was
made. The team lined up quickly
and Eckenrod called for another for
ward pass. Hansen threw the pig
skin true to Austin who caught it
fairly and raced down the field 60
yards for touchdown. Hansen
kicked goal and score stood: Sank
Centre, 9: Wadena, O. The touch
down came in little over one minute
of actual play after the kickoff. And
how the crowd yelled. The first
quarter ended shortly after.
There was nothing doing in the
second quarter in the scoring line.
Parker ran the ball back from the
kickoff in the third quarter. Then
Eckenrod changed tactics. He had
been calling for forward passes and
Wadena was watching. for them.
Then the speedy quarter for the To-
Gals tried line-bucking and end-run
PLAYS. These came i'm rapid success
sion as follows: Hansen through the
line for ten yards: Parker ditto.
Sank Centre then suffered a fifteen
yard penalty. The ball went down
the field through the line and around
the ends as follows: Eckenrod, Is
yards; Lyman, Is yards; Hansen, 2
yards; Parker, Is yards; Eckenrod, Is
yards. Then a forward pass was
thrown to Gingery, who was downed
in his tracks Parker went through
the line for yards and on the next
play Eckenrod went over for touch
down. Hansen kicked goal. Score:
Sank Centre, Is: Wadena, 0.
Wadena again elected to kick off
and Hansen came back fifteen yards.
About this time Wadena got the ball
on fumbled forward pass. Hansen
returned the ball ten yards. Parker
went through the line for ten yards:
Gingery. on pass, advanced 10 yards.
Austin on a pass went forward for
Is yards. Lyman tore off five yards
and Eckenrod ten. Then Sank Cen
tire was penalized yards. Hansen
then went over ten yards for the third
and last touchdown of the game, but
missed goal. Score: Sank Centre, 20;
Wadena, 0.
The last score came in the last
quarter by drop kick from the fif-
teen yard line at the east goal. Not
long before Hansen tried drop kick
but the ball hit the cross bar, DIS the
line did not hold well enough to en-
able the stocky full back to take as
much time as he needed.
At one time in the last quarter
Sank Centre got the ball down to
within foot of the east goal only to
lose it on downs. Wadena pushed it
out little ways and then punted but
Sank Centre soon got down far enough
for Hansen to place his drop kick.
Final score: Sank Centre, %; Wa
dena, 0.
All the locals put up a fine game.
Hansen, Eckenrod, Parker, Austin
and Lyman were oftenest called on to
make the advances. To enable them
to get through, too much credit can
not be given the line. Kells played a
strong, consistent game all through,
