While the suspense appears to be

Mr. Croker did not believe that
Roosevelt would get a larger popular

than Taft he would roll a peanut over

er City Runs Against
Band of Stalwarts in
Copper District
SCORE is 40 TO G

In a ragged game OF football at
Warren park yesterday afternoon. the
Bisbee High school eleven defeated
the Douglas High school by an over
whelming score OF 40 TO 0.
Lack of brilliant playing was char
acteristic of the game though the Oh
position OF the local team did not
draw out brilliant playing. Seely's
playing was the only redeeming fea-
ture of the visiting teams work.
Nearly all OF the Douglas players are
new at the gridiron game and their
work showed it, Il had been reported
that Douglas had the best chance in
years for lifting the scalp Of the noun
taineers.
5isbeeites in Good Trim
The work of the Bisbee team show
ed splendid training and lots OF prac-
tice. rejecting much credit on Coach
Henrie and Captain Yoakum who have
worked hard TO bring out a winning
team. II had been figured that Doug
las would be taken into camp out
that it would be done by so large a
score could not be coniectured.
Scores as Scheduled
First quarter: Douglas kicked 70
Bisbee on their dye-yard line and
Bisbee returned the kick 10 the Doug
las so. The ball shifted back and for
ward during this quarter, neither side
having an advantage and the quarter
ended with the ball on the Douglas
thirty-yard line.
Second uarter:-Douglas attempt
ed forward pass and II was received
by the Bisbee half who ran il for a
touchdown. Thomas kicked goal
On a forward pass Bisbee again
crossed the Douglas line but missed
goal, Turvey for Douglas ran the
kick back 40 yards.
In the last of the third quarter Bis
bee again passed for a touchdown
across the goal. TuTyey was injured
and had TO retire. About the middle
Of this quarter Bisbee passed again
across the Douglas line.
During the fourth quarter McCuI-
Tough made a touchdown on an end
run. At the last minute of play Bis
bee again attempted to pass over the
Douglas line but the bah was knock
ed from the hands of Mccullough and
went back as an incomplete pass.
Thomas took the ball over from -he
three yard line on a plunge over
tackle
Final score 40 to in favor of Bis
