overwhelmed Franklin college on Reid
field Saturday afternoon by the score
of 20 to 0. Although outweighed over
twenty pounds to the man, the fight
ing Quakers plowed through the Bap
lists for three touchowns. Logan
kicked two field goals and when the
game ended the ball was in Earlhams
possession with in a yard and a half
Of the Baptists' goal.
Several new plays worked out by
Earlham the past week were respon-
sible for the Quaker victory The for
ward pass was perfected by taking
Moorish out Of center, and putting Lo-
gan on the line. Gains of from thirty
to forty yards were made by thes for
nation for Morrish seemed to have no
trouble in passing accurately forty
yards.
Baptists Threaten Goal.
The game was filled with thrills
from start to finish and several times
Earlham's goal was in danger but the
Quakers prevented the visitors from
scoring by tightening up the line at
crucial periods and holding their
heavy opponents for downs. Logan,
the fast Earlham quarterback, was the
individual star OF the game but the
whole Quaker backfield shared in the
glor yof voctory.
Nelp the Baptist quarterback, was
the star for the visitors. Darnell, who
was placed at half for the first time
by Coach Whiteside, played an excel
lent game and could be counted on for
long gains through the line. Barnell
has been held for sub quarterback by
Coach Whiteside, but on account of
his excellent playing will probably be
used at half again next Saturday
against Hanover.
Franklin made more first downs
than did the Quakers but failed to
gain through the Quaker line at criti-
cal stages. Several bonehead plays
also lost them large gains. Because
CT Earlham's inability to make many
gains through the Baptist line, espe-
cially in the first part of the game,
the forward pass and end runs were
resorted to with great success. Bowen
also outpunted the Baptists, which ac-
counted for many of the gains.
Neither Team Scores.
No scoring was done in the first
quarter and for a time it looked as if
Franklin had the best of the game.
The Baptists made four first downs in
this quarter to Earlham's two. Earl
ham kicked off, but was penalized
five yards for off-side play on the
kickoff. Franklin then made consist
gains through the Quaker line and by
a series of end runs, made three first
downs in rapid succession. They
carried the ball to Earlham's 15-yard
line but after a penalty of off-side
play lost the ball on Earlham's 10
yard line where they we're held for
downs Earlham made first down on
line plunges and then was held b.
Wen punted out of danger. Bruner
ran down the punt and recovered the
ball on the 35-yard line after tumble
