High School Players Stage
Struck" at Ashland
Allow a Large Score to be
Piled Up Against Them
in Opening Game.

The same old "bug-bear" that
has been the undoing of many
other high school foot ball in
the past caused the defeat by a
large score of the local eleven at
Ashland last Saturday afternoon.
That "bug-bear" is nervousness
which seems to affect all local
high school teams the same in
the opening game if it is played
at Ashland. The sight of the
Ashland players with their
padded uniforms and headgear
backed by large crowd of
enthusiastic rooters, makes them
stand out like giants in the eyes
of the local boys, and the en-
thusiasm which is always mani
fest on the way to Ashland soon
dwindles away and it is easy for
one to predict the outcome of
the game.
The local eleven went to Ash
land last Saturday afternoon
with a determination to win the
game and hopes were running
high until the Ashland players
appeared upon the field. Soon
after the first few plays were
pulled off by the Ashland boys
hopes went aglimmering for the
local eleven for they were
"stage-str',ck" and their plays
indicated it..
The enthusiastic rooters from
Washburn who went over to help
the boys win the game by their
cheering seemed to lose their
voices and after a few minutes
of play there was not peep"
that be heard coming from the
Washburn section of the
grounds. One lone rooter, who
by the way is not a student at
the schools, did manage occasion
ally to give an encouraging yell
for the Washburn boys which
seemed to encourage them.
Ashland started right in
scoring from the start and be-
fore the first quarter of the
game had been played thirty
four points had been piled up
against the Washburn eleven.
The second quarter was not
nearly as bad.
At the end of the first half
the Washburn boys we're taken
into a corner where they were
given a good talking to by the
coaches and the effect Of this
talk was apparent when the
second half was started for the
play was different. Instead Of
allowing the Ashland bunch to
play with them at will the local
eleven held Ashland on line
bucks, blocked forward passes,
and forced Ashland to punt at
times in order to get the ball
away from their own goal.
From the second half on the
Washburn boys gave a better
exhibition of their playing, al
though several points were piled
up against them during the Sec
ond half. The downs were
made by wide end runs while
another was made by line plunges
when the ball was within few
wards of the Washburn goal.
But it can be said that that
the second half of the game was
we'll played, despite the points
that were made.
The score was 54 to U.

of food and drink taken into the system
nearly an ounce OF waste material
must be carried out, else It ferments
and forms ptomainc-like polsons which
are absorbed into the blood.

the ashes from the furnace each day,
before the fire will burn bright and
