but, oh, that nightmare OF Saturday
On the level, the telegraph wires
transmitting the message from
Phoenix to Prescott almost went on
strike. 1t was awful
1t was the same old story-whirl-
winds in practice and all at sea on
the actual field OF battle Prescott
simply couldn't get started and when
she did it was too late. But the
blindness of battle seized upon
Prescott and it is said to their
credit that every inch Of the way
gained by Phoenix was secured by
almost superhuman effort.
Phoenix unquestionably boasts q
100 per cent better team this year
than last. But even this fact does
not imply that she boasts as much
superiority over the locals as the
score would indicate. The return
engagement here may tell a differ
ent tale.
Prescott's line showed marked
weakness. It was particularly due
to the backs that the Coyotes were
held three times for downs-once
on Prescott's th-ee-yard line The
offense Of the Phoenix warriors were
remarkably good. some of the long
est runs and crashing rushes ever
seen on that field being in evidence

ball on their own 4O-yard line.
The third period was principally
kicking. but in this period, when
Thoenix failed to score, Prescott did
its best work, holding the Coyotes
on the goal line three times for
their down.
The fourth score was distinctly
Peters. Receiving a punt in mid
grid he carried it to the 6fteen-yard
line. Then On an end run he took
the bali to within one yard of the
line where frion carried it over
Harrison missed goal. Score, % to Q.
Three minutes later the Coyotes
made their last score. Prescott at
tempted a forward pass, but Peters
took the bali out of the air On the

play OF the day. Harrison Kicked
goal. Final score. SO to o.

vidual star on either side. But
Brooks. Peterson, Belts, Narlor
Ellis and Teal played more than
ordinary games for the Coyotes.
