Before a large and enthusiastic
crowd the football team of the Lake
Village High School defeated the Der
mott High School team at Dermott
last Friday afternoon with score of
thirteen to six II was the first time
Lake Village goal had been crossed
this season. The teams We're pretty
evenly matched in weight
Captain Bullock won the toss and re
sumed the kick off After series of
line bucks, Dermott tried a forward
pass. Alcorn Interrupted and sprlnted
twenty yards for touchdown. 5.
Forte kicked goal Dermott received
and after being held for downs. Bullock
pointed to H. Alcorn who ran through
an open field for twenty yards. After
a series of line bucks and end runs, 5.
Forte sprinted around right end for the
other and final touch down. Dermott
seemed to be swept off their feet by
the tieetness of the Lake Village men.
But at the beginning of the second
quarter Dermott came to life. Evans
substituted for Courtney at left end,
On a series of line bucks and broken
field rnnnings by Bullock and company
Perry carried the ball over on terri
tic line smash Bullock missed diff
cult goal. Lake Village received bat
was soon forced to punt Dermott came
strong and was marching for second
touch down when the whistle blew for
the first half and one of Dermott's
chances was lost. Here Lake Village
was Is and Dermott t.
Lake Village received the kick at the
beginning of the second half Both
teams were fighting hard with Der
mott keeping Lake Village on the run.
Dermott settled to straight line plung
ing and tore Lake Villages lineup at
will. But luck seemed to be against
them They would march TO within
stricking distance OF Lake Villages
goal only to tumble the ball Der
motifs goal was in danger once in the
second half. Then the Dtrmott line
was like a stone wall On false kick
Lake Village was thrown for loss Of
ten yards and the bali went over On
a series of false line bucks and for
ward passes permott began a steady
march for touch down which was
shattered when they were within ten
yards Of the goal and the game ended
bermott was outplayed in the first
few minutes of play but after they
struck their stride Lake Village was on
the run If the game had gone full
regulation quarters. Dermott would
have won 10y good margin. Bullock
Hogan. Perry, Thomas, Gibson Evans
and Morris. In fact the whole Dermott

creditable work for Lake Village.
