that the town of Slayton or even
it's team should not be, entirely
judged by the crowd 1T the
game. AS a matter Of fact, ana
perhaps as matter Of reproach,
we are told that very few of the
finer spirited folks Of that vii
lage support their team. The
boys who played, with two or
three exceptions, were fine
chaps, and under the proper en-
couragement would put up as
clean and decent a game as could
be asked for. AS a matter of
fact during the latter part Of
Saturdays fray, the Slayton
players and the sidelines became
subdued into apparent shame.

clean game put up by the Red
wood team.
The Game
After all, a word about the
game might be interesting. The
first quarter the play was about
even. Slayton held Redwood on
the ten yard line once, and in
deed as was true all through the
game, Slayton never threatened
Radwood'c GOAL The attack of
the locals increasing in power
finally broke through Siayton's
resistance in the second period,
and when the half ended Ii
points had been tailed.
When the third period opened,
with Redwood receiving on. the
kickoff, the contest turned into
q joyful romp, and the score
mounted high in short order. A
little variation of simple open
plays and smashes did the bust
ness. The third period ended
with the ball in Redwood's pos
session on a vineyard line, and
with a couple of attempts was
showed over by Stevens. A little
later Max intercepted a pass and
sped over fifty yards with splen-
did interference for a spectacu-
lar score. incidentally, a grab
of pass by Capt. Mason and an
accompanying touchdown earlier
in the game was one of the
fhrills of the game.
Boys All Play
It is difficult to point out par
ticular stars on the local team
for the day. The whole back
field worked with machine-like
precision, making few fumbles.
Lamberton generated his plays
the best he has done this sea-
son. Reynolds distinguished HIM
self with his tackling ON the
Kickoff, Luscher with his run
ming interference, and Max with
his open field running and off
tackle gains. The line was il
working order, saving the back
field on practically all Of Stay
toms charges. Only one substi-
tuition was made, Moose" Full
Ter, who has been laid up with q
charley horse" drove ever to
Slayton in the morning, and be-
tween halves suited up and
played the rest of the game. I'm
able to handle his crippled leg,
Moose devoted his attention to
offensive work. Herman Page
and John Winter, who 5, .rted
at guards, played particularly
strong on defense. WEIGH at
left tackle, was the most consis-
tent tackler on the field, and de.
lighted the sidelines with his
spilling of interference. At tn
companion tackle, Corcoran had
the heaviest side of the oppo-
nents to handle and he handled
it. Hill at left end broke some
nicely placed passes Of Stay
toms, and featured himself with
clever open field lodging. Ma
sons offensive work kept the
field clear for Stevens numer-
GUS runs off to the right, and his
nabbing was JOY, Glassco at
center put more life into the
team than any other one player,
his pep irresistible and an in
spiration at every point of the
game
The team came out of the
game fairly well bruised up
Lamberton is nursing sore
tendon this week and it is as YET
uncertain whether he can play
in the Window game.
About twenty-five loyal fans
came over from Redwood to see
the game, while carload OF
