The first game was won by Puma
hou by the narrowest possible margin
Of one safety-2to 0. The other went
to the high school, score 40.
The McKinley.biills game proved In
lteresting. The black and gold We're
superior to the "Millers. in weight and
experience Mills team Is very light
and. although fast and snappy. they

backfield and line Of High. Several
iof Mills shift formations worked well
against High, but early In the game
Mills lost her best back. and there
latter played rather hopeless game.
McKinley's team Is chiefly Brash.

high and net positive; charging was
slow: the runners In the open HELD
