One of Big Games of
The Year
Taken somewhat by surprise
in the first few minutes of play
with Stewart last Saturday the
Redwood Falls team came back
with a vengeance and over
whelmed the visitors by a score
of rs to 6.
Stewart Starts Strong
The local team was expecting
a too easy victory and lacked
the pep and drive they exhib-
tied in the Window game a
week previous. Stewart on the
other hand was keyed up to the
winning point and started the
first quarter with a rush that
took the Redwood boys off their
feet. Plunging it's way to Red
woods 30-yard line the Stew
art team put a nice field goal
over Redwood's line, making the
first score and netting three
points.
Redwood took this very phil
osophically as a break in luck,
but when the performance was
repeated in the next ten min
utes the home team began to
sit up and take notice. After
the second field goal by Stew
art, bringing their score up to
six points, Redwood got possess
sion of the ball on Stewards 40
yard line. The side lines then
got their first thrill when Das-
kan in wide end run around
Stewards right, sped 60 yards
down the field for touchdown.
Mason failed at goal leaving the
score at the end of the quarter
a tie of 6 to 6.
Second Quarter
In the second quarter Stewart
again tried the kicking game,
but this time the Redwood for
wards filtered through and
blocked the kick. Later an in
tercepted pass by Redwood
brought the ball to Stewards
10-yard line. A series of line
smashes and short end runs en-
abled Scott to land the oval
second time behind Stewards
goal line. A successful kick by
Mason netted seven more points
for Redwood. The quarter end
ed with Redwood 13, Stewart 6.
Third Quarter
Redwood went into the third
quarter with the knowledge that
their lead was not enough to
make victory sure, as a touch
down by Stewart would again
tell the score. Redwood opened
up with pass to Darrell which
failed. Driven to Redwoods 20
yard line, Warner tucked the
pigskin under his arm and set
out on an 80-yard jaunt for the
west goal. Good interference
by his mates enabled him to
make the entire distance and to
register another touchdown for
the Redwood team. This is the
longest and most spectacular
run made on the local fed this
year. Mason failed at goal. Red
wood kicked off and finally got
possession Of the ball, near the
middle of the field. A long for
ward pass to Darrell and a few
line plunges and end runs
brought the oval within strik-
ing distance of the goal again.
In desperate plunge after bat
tering Stewards stonewall de-
Tense, Daskam pushed the ball
over by the length of itself.
Failure at goal kick, left the
score rs to 6, with Redwood on
the long end.
Fourth Quarter
The last quarter was holly
contested but resulted in no
score for either team. The game
ended with the ball in Stewards
possession in their own territory.
