back, intercepting forward pass
fumbed by quarterback p2Tnell on
the Earlham twenty-five yard line,
tore down the south sidelines seventy
five yards for the only touchdown of
Saturdays game with Earlham at Reid
field enabling the Hanovarians to beat
the Quaker squad by tlc score of 6 to
2. Earlham scored her two touch
downs on touchbacks, one in the third
quarter and the second in the final
moments of the last quarter. Five
hundred students and visitors witness
ed the game.
The visitors played rings around the
Yellow and White squad and the
Earlham line was not strong enough
to hold the fierce charges of the spec
dy Hanover eleven. Thistlethwaite, the
Earlham right tackle, played a strong
game, but was the only member of
the line who was able to charge back
into the crimson line Thistlethwaite
was knocked out in the third quarter
but revived and went back into the
game in the last moments of the final
period
First Quarter Even.
The first quarter was about an even
break but the visitors had the bet
ter of the doubt, for they forced the
Earlham squad to constant kicking to
keep the pigskin out of dangerous
territory. The Hanover captain won
the toss and chose the east goal. The
Earlham goal was on the old baseball
diamond and was in heavy mud
The Yellow and White squad start
ed the game fumbling and making bad
passes and continued it throughout
the contest although at times the en-
tire team braced and came within an
ace of scoring but again tumble of
quarterback Hobbs, lost the ball.
In the second quarter Darnell re-
lieved Hobbs, at quarterback. Bogue
received the kickoff and ran it up to
the thirty yard line. Here a poor pass
resulted in a loss of a couple of yards.
Bowen next tore through the crimson
linee for seven yards. Williams, the big
fullback, who was out of the former
game because of a sprained ankle,
plunged the line for five yards. A Sc
ries of line plunges by Bogue and
Bowen brought the ball on the visit
ors twenty yard line. Here a delayed
pass and forward pass play was work
ed and when Darnell fumbled the pass
from Bogue, Allison scooped the ball
IL.
Voris failed to kick goal.
Stanley Asleep.
The two teams spared around the
center of the field the remaining part
of the quarter, although the Hanover
team made another thirty yard gain
on an intercepted long forward pass
in which Stanley went to sleep on the
play and made a ball of it. He was
forced out of bounds at the Earlham
thirty yard line. The next few min
utes of play resulted in the ball being
advanced two yards but the Earlham-
ties held the visitors for downs.
Hobbs, again went in at quarter in
the beginning of the third quarter.
Thistlethwaite picked up poor kick
off and raced the ball to the thirty
yard line. Bogue punted twenty-five
yards. By open shift formations the
Hanover team placed the ball in the
center of the field. Line plunging and
end runs brought the ball to the TWEEN
ty-yard line but the Quaker lads held
them for downs.
Hobbs FumbIes.
Bogue and Bowen and Williams ad-
vanced the ball to the twenty yard line
when tumble by quarterback Hobbs
lost the ball to the visitors. A punt
thirty-five yard line. Three attempts
through the line failed to get ten
yards and the ball was lost on the
fourth down. For the next five minutes
the ball was in play around the cen
ter of the field, but always the Hano
yer team made long gains through the
locals lines. Trueblood relieved Bogue
in the last three minutes of the quar-
ter and played effective. The quarter
ended with the ball on the Earlham
twenty-five yard line.
In the last quarter Coach Reagan
sent Darnell again at quarter. Bogue
received the punt by the Hanover
punter and took the ball fifteen yards
Trueblood tore around left end on a
delayed pass for five yards. Bogue los,
two yards on bad pass. His attempt
to punt failed and a short oneside
kick resulted and the Hanover crew
recovered the ball in the center OF
the field.
Try Open Plays
A series of open formation plays
raced the ball down to the two yard
line of the Yellow and White squad
at which place the Quakers braced and
held the visitors for downs. Thistleth
waite went in for Peacock at tackle
and played a strong game by his char
ging at the critical moments
Rogue f1mbled a kick back of the
goal line. A few of Trueblood's lone
end runs brought the ball back into
the middle Of the field. The two teams
spared until the game ended with
the bail on the Earlham thirty YARD
line.
The game accurately showed Coach
Reagan what his men would do wher
pitted against a football team. Hano
YER, this year. has one OF the strong
est elevens in its history, but the
Quaker boys were not one, two three
with the DOWNSTAIRS.
Quarters Are Slows.
Darnell and Hobbs. the two quar-
terbacks used in the game were toe
slow. Many times Capt. Bogue had tt
bowl the quarterbacks over because
they were too slow in getting off. A
times the back field itself was rages
and one player would act as il he dir
not know where the play was going.
On forward passes the Earlhan
SQUAD was poor. As many az dozen
