one or the most lnter< nS IOOtDall
games in several years . S played at
the college park Monday = !ternoon be-
tween the regular coll -, team and
Oscar Johnson's All s. IS, a pickup
team from the city. TT ? Stars had in
their ranks many Of thu g est men who
ever played at the collS :, as well as
three or four stars fro.- other institu-
tions. The game was a highly eXcit-
ing affair and the score given out by
the officials was IS to 8 in favor of
the college. However, the town boys
claim they should nave had W. more
touchdowns. One was when the
referee ruled that Hyde had ran out of
bounds before crossing the goal line
and again when the official decided
that a blocked punt behind the college
goal was a safety. The Has Beens say
that Hyde did not come within three
feet of going outside of the line, and
further allege that Ike" Johnson, one
of their men, fell upon the block kick
which would score it as a touchdown.
We give the referee credit for being
fair, however, and he undoubtedly de-
cided the plays just as he saw them.
1t is of little consequence anyway,
who wOn or what the score was. The
game was played to give the college
boys practice and everyone, players,
officials and spectators had a good
time oIt of it.
The All Stars put up a great game,
considering that they only had a
twenty minutes signal practice and
two or three of the men wlre not
present at that time and did not know
the signals. Outside of the first five
minutes of the game they held ne col
lege boys on even terms and actually
outplayed them III the last half, when
everyone predicted that the old boys
would BE- = , in. It is safe to predict
that with a weeks practice the old
timers would trim the youngsters to a
fare-you-well.
The old boys all put up a good game
and demonstrated to the youngsters
that all of the good football is not
played nowadays. The line held
we'll and the backfield put up a rat
Ting good game, especially Rev. Rob
erts, Ike Johnson, DIR. Lentz and
owen Hyde, and the last named played
better football than any man on either
team.
The game was witnessed by at least
five hundred people, most of whom
were roofing for the Stars.
