Crangeville School Wins De-
cisive Victory Over Lew
iston Warriors.
THANKSGIVING GAME
High School Will Clash With Al
Star Town Team in Tur.
key Day Game.

The Lewiston high school football
team. rated as one of the best aggre-
cations in the state in scholastic cir
cles. went down to bitter defeat on the
local gridiron last Friday afternoon be-
fore the sturdy football players on the
local high school team. Score: Grange
vile 25, Lewiston IL.
After the customary preliminary stage
fright. which seems to haunt the To-
Gals in every game, Fridays contest
was all to the merry for Grangeville.
In the last quarter Grangevile scored
at will, bewildering the Lew
iston lads with an avalanche of open
field plays 1t was by this mode Of
attack that the locals gained most Of
their ground. The assortment of for
ward passes and trick plays conceived
by Coach Robinson and executed by
his fighting cohorts was varied In the
extreme and certainly most mystify-
ing and bordered close upon the thau-
maturgical, especially from the View
point of the awed and dismayed mem
bers of the opposing eleven.
Mac Runs Wild.
Lewiston scored first, touchdown
and later Phillips, another star in a
family of football fame, kicked two
splendid drop kicks for goal from the
field. Mac Leonard brought the crowd
up on its toes when he tore through
the Lewiston line on punt by the
locals and recovering the kicked ball
on the bound. ran practically the en-
tire distance of the field for a touch
down. 1t was one of the really great
plays of the game and should the fans
at the Yale Harvard game Saturday
witness such play several Thousand
swlAA
gloom, as the case might be. And
after making the run, Mac kicked
difficult goal
In open formation the Grangeville
bunch advanced the ball till the men
in the backfield wearied a bit and
John Long at center on a fake play
ambled goalward about 20 yards to the
extreme chagrin of the Lewiston de-
fense A beautiful end run by Gilbert
for over 40 yards, a line buck by Rich
ards from open formation and a clev-
erly executed forward pass with How
ard receiving the ball were just
few of the plays that brought touch
downs in sight and made the splendid
victory possible.
| Everybody Starred.
For the locals Gilbert was easily the
star on defense, breaking up play after
play by his terrific, accurate tackling.
He also plays a fine game on offense.
Allen, the quarterback, was a tower of
help to his team, and his judgment in
calling plays was exceptionally good.
See scoreboard for proof Eimers play
ed the best game of his career and all
the men in the line showed flashes
over their regular form. The team as
a whole is a crackerjack and certainly
reflects great credit upon Coach Robin
son who has made athletics complete
success and a potent, commendabe fac
tor in the school life.
A return game is to be played at Lew
iston during stock show week when the
locals hope to win again and in the
meantime they will keep in training by
meeting the All-Star town team at the
park on Thanksgiving day.
