time during the matinee did the visitors
appear dangerously formidable. In the
opening session they got the jump on
the locals and worked the ball down to
the 40-yard line before losing it on an
abortiye pass. This was their longest
stand against the pupils of McLain dur
ing the frolie. Once in the third quarter
the Nightriders reached the 35-yard
line and attempted a field goal. The
shot went wild, and their most inviting
opportunity to score was blasted
After momentary lull in the initial

BROTHERS IN FINE TRIM.
Scintillants on the local eleven were
numerous. Every man, with one or
two exceptions, played clever ball.
Especially is this true OF the backfed
trio. Ross, Campbell and Shea put up
really remarkable performance. The
broken field running of Ross was a
revelation. Time after time he plowed
through the scattered ranks Of the
enemy for gains averaging 50 yards.
His excellent judgment in sighting open
ings and adeptness at shaking off tack
lers made him the most dangerous player
of the Purple and Gold eleven.
In the first and second periods he
contributed two 95-yard runs; in the
third he got away for 90 yards, and in
the fourth he slipped off right end for
60 yards and touchdown.
Skillful interference by Campbell,
Tom Shea and Guinee aided Ross in his
demoniac hikes to no minor extent
Tom Shea divided the highest laurels
with his backtield mate, registering
several long runs and scoring three of
the eight touchdowns recorded. Capt.
Wilson, s. Key and Quinn played well
for the guests.
AS the pigskinners from the night
riding district were on the defense for
the greater part of the game, they were
presented with but few chances to dis
play any offensive abilities they might
have possessed. On the defense, how
ever, they were not forced to concede
point to their rivals.
STRONG POINT A HANDICAP.
Probably this was due to the fact that
nine players formed the breastworks,
it practically impregnable.
However, this strong point of the Wis
itors proved their downfall, for in
the line it weakened the
ends, and it was around the extremities
that the Brothers registered their most
profitable gains Extensively, the Wis
TORS most dangerous weapon was a
short pass. 1t was worked successfully
many times, before the Purple and Gold
ends devised means to smother it. Capt.
Wilson figured in several sweeping end
runs, which served to keep the enthusi
asm from sinking completely.
Capt. Shea of the locals won the toss
