mai this afternoon. The local peda-
SoSues. during the four quarters.
amassed just eleven touchGowns and
six goal kicks, totaling them ~
points.
Kelly Moeur assisted occasionally
by Adams and Finch. was the cen
trail figure in the Tempe lineup. and
when one of thte trio carried the
hall it usually meant gain, some
times as much as forty and once or
twice fifty yards.
Captain Brandt was the mainstay
of the Flag boys. Pep was his
middle name, and to him goes the
credit of saving the team from a
Shut-out with his neat little drop
kick in the third quarter. Only that
one time did Flagstaff get within as
close as fifteen yards of the local
goal At other times the Tempeans
rushed the ball almost at will, and.
aside from the first ten minutes of
the third quarter when Flag tight
ened up and held it's own. the locals
went through the line for regular
gains of seldom less than five or ten
yards.
Tempe opened the game with a
forty-yard kickoff to a Flagstaff
man. WHO carried the ball back to
mid field and then lost it on a fluke.
ON the second down, Finch for
Tempe lodged through Flags line of
scattered players for a gain of forty
yards and on the next play he car
ried the ball across for the initial
touchdown. Chase kicked off for
Tempe again and placed the bali
within five yards OF the gbal posts.
Flag carried it twenty-five yards
and then lost it on the fourth down. |
only to sec Moeur come back with a
long run and n subsequent touch !
down With the third Kickoff the
plays went much the same and this !
time 1t fell to Adams to make the |
long run and the touchdown.
The close of the first half saw
Tempe chalked up with thirty-two |!
points and Flagstaff had had no !
chance to score. Coach Thorpe took |
his boys aside during that fifteen |
minute intermission and when they |
went back into play they worked |
like demons.
For five minutes the battle lowered |
about the middle of the field. and |
then dbwn by down Flagstaff started |
its gains. toward a possible touch
down At the eight-yard line the
hall stopped and three consecutive !
attempts to plunge through the line
were without avail. AS n last re-
sort. Brandt. standing on the fiji |
teen-yard line, placed a beautiful lit |
tie drop kick squarely between the |
goal posts. 1t at least saved a shut
out
The Tempeans regained their old |
pep and Outrage after that and from |
then on through the remainder of /
the game the ball was in play prac-
tically all of the time in the visitors |
territory
The Flagstaff boys are remaining |
as the guests of the locals on the |
campus. tonight and tomorrow they /
will make their return trip home Ar
engagements were under way today |
for a trip of the local squad TO !
Flagstaff for a Thanksgiving day |
game, and it appeared that plans to
that end may be perfected.
Tempe Normal will play the Indians |
on the local field next Saturday.
