Witherspoon Hurt in Game and
Taken Out in Last Half.
Columbia Military Academy had an
other walkover Saturday in the Rey-
nolds School bunch from Corners
vile and defeated the visitors "a to 0.
1t looked in the first quarter as if the
visiting boys would holds the cadets
to a standstill if not defeat them.
They put a terrific defensive and Of
fensive game, making long gains on
runs by half back McMinn and ether
wise getting through, but the cadets
managed to hold them fairly we'll
and ended with the ball in the center
of the field. c. M. A. had not got
within shooting distance of the enc
.my's goal and while Reynolds had
not had a chance to score they looked
good for touchdown.
In the second quarter the cadets
came back and got together. Rey-
nolds lost the ball on an attempted
forward pass and Porter caught it
and ran fifteen yards. Rainey fol-
lowed with another ten yards on a
line buck and this way the ball was
rushed to Reynolds four yard line,
Reynolds held for downs, but dis
pute arose as to the down and the
ball was put in play and Rainey went
over for touchdown The officials
decided it was Reynolds ball. Rey-
nods punted out from behind the
goal line, Kober received it and ran
for touchdown from the forty five
yard line; this also was not permit
ted to count as the referee blew his
whistle thinking that the ball had
gone out of bounds The ball was
again put in play, the cadets were not
under the collar, having made two
touchdowns and neither counting.
C. M. A. punted and Reynolds FUN
bled G. NJ. A. recovered and forced
the ball to the one yard line where
Reynolds made desperate fight and
held for downs. Reynolds punted
from behind the goal line, Kober re-
ceived the punt but fumbled it; Nc
Adams backed him up, recovered and
returned three yards Porter gained
seven yards, Witherspoon eight yards
Rainey four yards, Witherspoon went
over for touchdown on an end run.
Score to 0.
The ball was again put in play by
Witherspoon kicking off to Reynolds
fifteen yard line, King returned ten
yards. There was an interchange of
punts when time was called.
Second Half.
It was in this half that the cadets
hammered the Reynolds line to
pieces and made some long gains
Reynolds, on a mass play, also pulled
off some pretty stunts, but the ca
de soon got onto them and broke
them before the man with the ball
could get away. Porter, Hedgecock
and Rainey repeatedly got through
the line and threw the, visitors for
heavy losses. 1t was in this quarter
that Porter got the ball from Rey-
nolds on tumble and ran through
the line forty-three yards for a touch
down. Witherspoon kicked goal,
making the score 10 to 0.
This was soon followed by another
touchdown by Rainey. Hendley was
the next cadet to score and Wither-
spoon kicked goal making the score
23 to 0.
The cadets were then inspired to
pile up as large score against the
visitors as Massey did, and the ball
was rushed across the field in spec
tacular style and McAdams sent over
for another touchdown. Witherspoon
kicked goal. Score % to O.
1t was in this next play that With
erspoon pulled off one of the prettiest
end runs ever witnessed here. He
broke through his interference and
when half back McMinn attempted to
stop him he was stiff armed by the
plucky cadet in such manner that
he was forced to take time out, but
Spoon gained thirtyfour yards before
he was stopped Spoon was again
given the Oall and got away in good
stvle but stumbled just as he got
clear field and fell but recovered his
feet and made three more yards. In
the fall he hurt himself and was TAX
en- out of the game and Rainey shift
ed 10 half. and Porter to full c. VI.
A. lost the ball on a fumbled after
gaining the fifteen yard line. The
newt score was made by Rainey Oh a
