The football outlook for this year
has been fairly satisfactory. In the
games thus far we have been victor
ious, but these games also showed
that unless the line braces up there
will be fearful results when we meet
some OF the heavier teams. On the
offense the team is fairly strong and
with few more new plays ought to
be able to hold its own. atg
| Saturday the team went to Rhine
lander for game with that school,
and defeated it by the score of 1910.
1t rained necessarily throughout the
game and the quarters shortened
to eight minutes. Had the full time
been played the score would have UNI
doubtedly been greater as 1.-THE team
was going in fine shape and large
gains were frequent.
Rhinelander won the toss and chose
to receive the kick. Johnson kicked
off and Rhinelander carried the ball
back ten yards. On the next play
Wausau secured the ball on a tumble.
Johnson passed to Ruder who ran %
yds. for touchdown. The attempt
to kick the ball out SO as to be in
position to kick goal failed and the
score was so in Wausau's favor.
Wausau again kicked off to Rhine
lander who ran the ball to their 30
| yd. line. By series of smashes and
fake plays Rhinelander carried the
ball As yards before they were held
for downs. The gains were due in a
measure to the playing of Redfield
the Rhinelander captain who played
| left half back. Wausau got the ball
and on the next play Johnson passed
to Ruder netting 10 yards. Turner
went around end for 10 yards but
Wausau was penalized Is yards for
holding. Rhinelander received the
ball on punt but had barely lined
up when Time was called for the first
quarter.
| In the second quarter the ball
shifted from one size to the other
without any material gains.
| At the opening of the second half
Rhinelander kicked off and Montgom-
cry ran the ball back 10 yards. Nc
Phail made ten yards but Rhmeland-
er braced up and Wausau was forced
to punt. Ruder recovered the ball
and on the next play Sampson smashed
through center for 7 yards. Johnson
made 5 yards on cross buck. A for
ward pass to Ruder netted 10 yards
and on the next play johnson went
through for a touchdown. Johnson
kicked goal and the score vas Ito.
Rhinelander kicked off and recovered
