| Turnout the second and third quarters
Cedar Falls played better football but
the team was hopelessly outclassed and
Marshalltown continued to pile up the
score.
Near the end of the second PERIOD
Miller made a fourth touchdown pos
sible when he intercepted a pass and
ran the ball back fifty yards to the
visitors 10-yard line. Dixon wiggled
thru the opposing line for a S-yard
gain. and then Hurlburt crashed thru
for the count. Dixon missed goal
Dixon's brilliant 40-yard return OF
a punt in the last minutes OF the thlrd
quarter brought the ball to Cedar
Falls 1-yard line, and he carried the
oval over on the next play. He added
another point by kicking goal.
Score in Last Minute.
Dixon scored again in the last quar-
ter following a march down the field
on n straight football. and kicked goal.
Shortly after Willard recovered the ball
on a tumble and placed Marshalltown
in q position to score again, the bai
being pushed over by Smith after
series Of line plunges. Dixon added an
other goal bringing the score to AZ to ..
With forty-five seconds remaining to
play, the home players called Tor an
other touchdown. Balch responded,
taking the kickoff for a 60-yard return
and the score. Goal was missed.
Marshaltown Interference Brilliant.
! The feature Of the game was the
brilliant interference Of the home team.
which made possible the sensational
long runs and the resultant scores. In
| almost every instance the interference
| formed instantly bringing from three
10 six men into the play TO clear the
way for the man with the ball. 1t was
probably the best interference ever seen
| in a high school game on the home
field.
But for the perfectneSS OF this inter-
ference the score would have been much
srualIr. The Cedar Falls team was not
so inferior as the score would indicate,
the line especially, showing strength
and endurance The visiting backs,
| however were light and were unable to
make any Roadway, first down being
made but once by the visitors, and then
as a result of a trick play
| The Marshalltown line was impene-
| trable, Cedar Falls gaining but four
| teen yards in fourteen attempts at the
| line, and losing nine yards on similar
| plays.
Marathon For Home Eleven.
Sanfords eleven virtually engaged in
| a forty-eight minute Marathon, advance
| ing the ball 709 yards during the period
| Of play The greatest gain was on the
return of kickoffs. with total of 272
| yards On plays directed at the line
the ball was advanced 1871 yards, and
| on end runs the backs gained 1870 yards.
! Sixty five yards were gained in the re-
turn of punts, thirty five yards on for
| ward pass and fifty yards on an inter
cepted pass.
Aside from the fifty-fve yard run for
| a touchdown by Hurlburt, and the long
runs for touchdowns from kickoffs by
sfi,,er and PaIch, the feature plays we're
the brilliant 40 yard line, and dazzling
pass of thrty-five yards from Dixon
| to Miller.
Backs Play Great Game.
| Hurlburt's grand open field work and
| his long sweeping end runs; Dixons
| dashing offensive play. and Smiths
smashing line attacks made the work
of the backs stand ont prominently.
Balch showed good headwork in direct
! ing the team, and came in for a share
of offensive honors in his long dash for
| the last touchdown.
| The success OF the backs, however
| is in large measure due to a stone wall
defense by the linemen and the rap!dity
with which the interference was form
ed Defensively the line outplayed the
visiting forwards thruout. link was re-
