TRINITY SCORES
AGAINST POLY
First Team to Make Score in
Game with Poly This
Season
SURPRISED THE VISITORS
Husky Players from Fort Worth Are
Taken Oil Their Feet When
Ferguson Kicked
Field Goal.

In g game OF football played here
Saturday afternoon between Poly
teehnic College and Trinity Uniyer-
sity the former was scored against
for the first time this season. In the
first half OF the game it looked like
victory for Trinity but the failure
to execute forward pass gave Poly
visitors had things their own way.
1t was one of the hardest fought
games ever played on the local grid
iron. Although Trinity was out
weighed by about fifteen pounds to
the man in the first quarter they
played rings around the husky Poly
men. Poly came here with the ex-
pectation of piling up a big score
aud when Trinity scored in the first
quarter the visitors were taken ol
their feet. Their was some squab-
bling during the game and each side
was penalized a time or two. A num-
Der of sensational plays were made
by each side. Wilson pulled off SEN
sational stunt for Poly when he re-
covered the ball in an attempted for
ward pass by Trinity and ran fifty
five yards for a touchdown. Fergu-
son for Trinity kicked field goal
from the 25-yard line.

HE must "a been blowed to thun-

1t may have been so, but we could
find no trace Of him. The top Of the
rock. where the shell had struck, was
blackened and splintered. and any
marks upon it would have been oblit-
Grated. We continued the search on
all sides for an hour, but no vestige
of Alfonso Payton did we discover,
even with the most careful scrutiny.
Finally, convinced that he must be
dead. although I could not explain his
complete disappearance, we made sail
for the rocks.
AS we approached we saw the Os-
prey, and the flag was joyfully waved
in welcome.
