AT THE HIGH SCHOOL

The local high school pig skin ath-
letes walloped the Columbia University
juniors of Portland, last Friday 24-6.
The game was played during the heavy
showers of Friday afternoon, but a
crowd of students and local fans looked
on from underneath umbrellas and rain
coats. The locals started off with a
place kick in the first quarter and fol-
lowed with three touchdowns, which
with the kicks made up the local score.
The Columbia team tried a place kick
in the second quarter, but the ball went
under the bar. The ball was in danger
again in the last half but was recov-
cred by the locals and punted out of
danger. In the last Is minutes of play
the Columbia team played the forward
pass entirely, and after getting up near
the line scored but failed to kick the
goal. Abraham got sprained shoul-
der in the last half and was replaced by
Bragg. Nal Button made several long
end runs which helped materially in
the scoring. Stanton's kicker was in
the best of shape, making over 40 yards
on one kick off and kicking two goals
at a hard angle. Larson, of the Co.
lumbia team, was disabled by Button
and was replaced by Mayo. Nickesen
replaced Coshow at quarter back in the
last half and did sensational playing at
one time, being the long man in the
way of G. U. touchdown. The Gun
ningham Champs played good clean
game, but were out classed.
