Spoeneman was a stumbling block for
every B. & Fl. man that came his way.
He guarded his post like a soldier.
Not enough can be said Of Shorty
Lockwood With his 100 pounds he
did more according to his weight to
break up the plays of the visitors
than any other man on the team. He
is the best man TO his size in the
South.
Looney, Rainey, Witherspoon and
Porter are best ground gamers and
surest tacklers combined ever massed
on a c. M. A, team in its history Por-
ter is the surest tackler and the great
est dsorganizer of the opposing
teams plays ever seen here. He is
always after the man with the ball
Rainey is also a great adept at this
work. But Red did not shine like he
usually does simply because in the
first half every man on the B. & H.
team were playing for him and trying
to put him out of the game on account
! of his work in the game last year.
Witherspoon's end run for 3S yards
and Rainey's end run for Is yards
were the sensational feats of the
game. The interference accorded
these players on both occasions was
gilt edge The rooters went wild
when Spoon circled the end for this
big gain.
This game will 90 down in prep
school football history as the greatest
exhibition ever pulled off.
