Sensational Runs.

Battered and bruised but not out
played or outgamed the Richmond In
dependent football team lost to the
Rushville Kappa Alpha Phi team at
Rushville Sunday by the score of 20
to 0. This was the first game for
Richmond, while the Kappas have
been playing and practicing steadily
for month and have an exceptionally
good Independent team.
That the locals We're able to hold
them to three touchdowns speaks well
for future prOwess on the gridiron.
From the start was fast and furiously
fought. The kappas were forced to
use their entire repertoire OF plays.
Not one Of their forward passes with
which they have been showing up 9th
er teams, worked as Coach Lewis had
his men drilled on the proper defense
for this particular play
Arntz Plays WeIl.
Most Of their gains were around the
ends and off tackle bucks, while they
were unable to gain through the local
line which had two men, w. May and
Shinn, who had never played game
OF football before. ArntZ at full, and
McLear at left half played great ball,
both on the defensive and offensive
throwing the Rushville backs for big
losses time after time and carrying
the ball for good gains.
The team needs a little more prac-
tice to perfect the machine. Tho next
game will be either with the fast
Shelbyville team or Gwynville and
Arlington combination next Sunday.
In detail yesterdays game was play
ed as follows:
First Half-Richmond kicked off to
WI 0 fwa
yard return, and with skin tackle plays
and end runs soon had the ball over
for touchdown. Cunning failed to
kick goal. The Kappas kicked to
Arntz who returned 10 yards. Arntz
kicked out of bounds Richmond
blocked three forward passes and on
the next play Drischel went around
left end to the locals Is yard line.
Richmond held and the ball see-sawed
back and forth. Finally Drischel got
away for a 20 yard run around left end
for touchdown. Cunning kicked
goal, as the first half ended.
The second half began with Rush
vile kicking to Duning, who returned
10 yards. The locals took brace at
this time and made several pretty
plays for good gains but could not
score. The ball was worked back and
forth Time was called with the kap-
pas in possession of the ball in the
locals territory.
Richmond fought hard in the last
quarter to cut the kappas from scOr
ing in this period holding them re-
peatedly on the 20'yard line and block
ing every attempt at trick plays and
forward passes. Arntz booted the
pigskin to the center Of the field and
Cunning made pretty return to the
90 yard line, from where Lewellen
went over for the last touchdown on
a wide run around right end. Gum
ing kicked goal
