The first football game of the season
to be played at home was won by the
Hot Springs high school team from
Sturgis, Saturday at Athletic Park, by
a score of 81 to o. 1t was case of
superiority in practically every phase
of the game that caused the local team
to win with ease from the upper hills
boys The locals of course had quite an
advantage in weight hut their plays
went off with snap that completely
batiied their opponents. Most of the
scoring was done In the early part of
the game and a larger score could have
been piled up. Coach lngle, however,
wished to try out all his substitutes
and as soon as the glme was safely
won he put these men in tn save up his
regulars FOR next Saturdays game with
Rapid City here which will be one of
the hardest of the schedule.
At 2:3O p. m. the game was called,
Hot Springs winning the toss and
choosing to defend the south goal
Sturgis kicked off, Hunter receiving
the ball on the twenty yard line and
returning in to the middle of the field.
Hot Springs started down the line
using straight football until they had
reached the SturRis twenty yard line
when they lost the ball on downs.
Sturgis punted out and Murray for
Hot Springs received the ball and ran
thirty yards for touchdown Volin
kicked gcsl This was all the scoring
in the first quarter. After the usual
intermission. Hot Springs started with
the ball on the Sturgis twenty yard
line and Violin went over for touch
down and later kicked goal. The rush
of the locals had by this time rather
demoralized the visitors and a second
touchdown was secured by Violin be.
fore the quarter ended on line smash
and again he booted the pigskin be.
tween the goal posts.
In the second half, number of sub
stitutes were put in and March, who
had been doing some pretty tackling
and running interference during the
first half was used to carry the ball.
He made pretty run thru the Sturgis
team of twenty yards landing the ball
on their five yard line and on the next
play carried it over. On the kick for
placement, Dudley fumbled the ball
causing the locals to lose their try at
goal. AS soon as the teams were lined
up, Hot Syringe uncovered some pretty
plays which netted good gains and
Violin soon landed the ball behiud the
goal posts for his third touchdown
This going across the line seemed to be
habit with him that the coach here
will not try to remedy. Once more he
kicked goal.
The fourth and last quarter found
nearly all Of the Hot Springs substi.
tutes in the line and they did some
very nice work. They carried the ball
to the thirty yard line of their oppc.
nents where Violin made one of the
prettiest drop kicks ever seen on this
field. This ended the scoring, the
total being 81 for Hot Springs to zero
for Sturgis.

bunch of lads and did their very best
to win but we're unfortunate in being
outclsssed.
