TRICK PLAY WINS
AGAINST j. n. NJ.
FOR ARIZONA
Tucson Eleven Victor 7 to 81
Game Played Under Protest,
Visitors Failing to Certify
Eligibility of Players,

Heavier by at least thirteen pounds
to the man and playing under the
cloud Of n protest because Of failure
10 file the required certificatlon of
eligibility of players. the Arizona uni
versity football eleven defeated tho
University Of New Mexico. z to 3, yes
day afternoon on Association park
field Outplayed during fully three
fourths Of the game by a much lighter
team, and excelled in ground gaining
al least two to one, Arizona won on
a pretty execution Of the prettlest trick
play ever seen on local gridiron and,
while the score stacks up against
them, the University of New Mexico
eleven may well be credited with a
moral victory in yesterdays game.
New Mexico's three points were
scored by a field goal booted squarely
between the posts by Hesselden stand
ing on the Arizona thirty-flve yard
line i'm the second quarter, the ball
being en- the twenty-five yard line.
Arizona scored in the third quarter,
Luis left end. carrying the bail down
an unohstructed field for a touchdown.
after the entire varsity eleven had
massed on the opposite side Of the
line as the result Of a fake end run.
The play was perfectly executed and,
considering the previous plays which
were calculated TO, and did cause the
u. ~ NJ team to expect the play which
was faxed, was undoubtedly the fea-
ture Of the game. Rarely did the
Tucson eleven outclass the varsity
men in generalship except in the exc
Cution of this play-but that was
enough. Merritt kicked goal for Ari-
z0na,
The work Of Hesselden, varsity right
half was in a class all by itself Not
only did he make a magnificent kick
in scoring varsity's only points, but his
open field running and line bucklng
were almost invariably productive of
the desired gains. LaPraik's running
back Of kicks was sensational, not
single tumble being charged against
the diminutive U. n. M. quarter Cap
tain Calkins and Probert played their
usual steady game, ana the entire line
played great football, considering the
extra weight of the Arizona eleven.
The ground gained by varsity to-
tailed more than double that of Ari-
2ona, while the heavy team was held
for downs much more frequently than
the varsity Considered as a football
machine, the L. ~ NJ. team undoubt-
edly outclasses the Arizona eleven due
largely to the coaching of Hutchin-
SON. and partially TO the fact that the
Arizona team has been practically re-
built since the early games of the
season, only three men who played in
the first game being in the lineup yes
terday
The game was played under pro-
test because the Arizona team had
failed to file the certification of
eligibility of players as provided in
the contract. In order to insure
against the playing of ineligible men
on either team, it was specified in the
contract that the president Of each
school should certify the eligibility of
all players participating in the game
New Mexico did this but up toy the
time for beginning the gang no
papers certifying the eligibility lof the
Arizona players had been received.
The Arizona team that played varsity
Yesterday is not the same team that
started the season for the Tucson
school only three men who played /

Yesterday. Also there is evidence of
dlssension in regard to the manage
ment Of athletics at Arizona Director
OF Athletics Quigley did mot accom-
pany the team Instead, Assistant
Coach King was in ch8rge of the
squad Taking the entire isituation into
consideration, the athletic manage /
ment of U. N. NJ. decided to play the
