Arizona republican., 1913-11-02

Ragged teamwork by the university kept that team from running up a higher and better score against the Indians at the Indian school yester- day, but brilliant individual play won victory for the varsity eleven As it was. the U took two touch downs and scored one goal from the touchdown, besting the Indians by the small score of 13 to 0. But the men from the south should have had several more clean scores, for fumb- ling at critical moments, together with poor buc1ing when it meant downs cost them the ball or forced them to try for field goals, which they seemed unable to score. The university team showed a great lack of coaching and did not have a semblance of snappy team work They showed that the reports about Quig- ley's failure as a general for the team are correct, and that the thing the varsity most needs at the pre- sent time is a good thorough coach who can make fifteen individual stars get in and play together.
 As stated before, every man on the Arizona eleven, including the bet ter part of the subs, is a star in his individual part of the game. But there are several stars who are shining lights. Both the Merritt brothers, Piper, Campbell, Mcintosh Lewis and Jones. all showed the class which in the bigger schools of the west would win them a place or the lineup. Each played a first class game, and had they worked to- gether they would have been easy victOrs by a large margin.
  showed up much better than was ever expected of them. They played classy little defensive game, for it was an uphill pull from the first whistle until the end of the game, and they came near to scoring twice when they took a lead, and were caught barely in time. They did not, however, threaten the U goal by line work or end runs, as the ball was in the Varsity possession in Indian ter Titory most of the time.
 Venne is to be congratulated on the organization. the well-trained, easy working, snappy playing, little machine he has developed. It put up a better, scrappier and faster game than was expected. and did well to hold the adversaries to such a low score.
 The game itself was rotten. It was marked by little of that spectacular stuff which makes the game beauti- ful to the bleachers, but was on the contrary marred continually by time out, kicking and fussing. The few plays which were worth the occasion to the grandstand were far between and were then obscured to the spec tator by the cloud of dust that raised On the field with every movement of the players. There was little fouling, but many claims of illegal blocking and holding. all of which made the time slow. There was too much time out when forward passes failed, and they failed every time they were tried.
