"I should worry. my men were no showing their true form Sunday after noon," said Manager Gallagher wher commenting, yesterday. on the defeai which the Twenty-second Infantry ad ministered to his c. & A. footballists in the Sabbath afternoon game. As z matter of history. the contest must be chronicled as rather pronounced re verse for the miners who were forced to accept the small end of the 21 to : score. However, Manager Gallagher says that his boys will more than re gain their standing in the good graces of the fans, next Sunday. when they journey to the Shelter City to try is sues with the Eleventh Infantry, win. ner of the championship among the Douglas soldiers.
 During the first period the miners appeared rather formidable as possi- ble winners ani closed the half with a margin of two points in their favor. These points, of course, were secured on a safety made when Cole son of the soldiers fell on the leather behind his own goal line. This play wss the cause of long argument but Referee Walecka settled the matter according of Hoyler by declaring a safety for c. & A.
 
 Both teams used the forward pass but the visitors were the only ones to profit consistently by the aerial meth cd of advancing the leather. The sol diers used clever short pass with much success. However. they showed the same weakness which characteriz- cd the work of the home team in hand ling this play, for the receiver of the pigskin frequently dropped the ball when otherwise, splendid gain might have been realized.
 Jack" Huddleston, who had taken Hughes place at quarterback for the home eleven, sustained broken collar hone and a severe shoulder wrench in the final period. just before the visit ors scored their second touchdown
 Huddleston was a plucky, aggressive player, and his loss is a severe blow to the C. & A. eleven.

The Twenty-second displayed an array of tackle plays and forward pass formations which were evidences of their splendid coaching.
 Galt was again the offensive star for the miners. The Indian tore through the soldiers line for repeated gains when his teammates were unable to advance around the ends or otherwise. Champion nailed the runner several times for severe losses. Wright's of  fcnsive work was, at times, extremely clever and Morris played strong de- fensiye game. Perkins. the Sherman University (Texas) lad, played we'll in the first half, then retiring.
 The soldiers first touchdown, which came in the third period, was in the nature of a fiuke Gait fumbled punt on his own 1O-yard line but c. & A. held the ball. The mine team punted but the kick was poor. the C. & A. line fsilei to mold and tie punt was block ed. Iarel-dt grabbed the oval and tore across for touchdown. At this point some C. S A. players and spectators raised howl of protest but there wasn't the shadow of chance for a kick and, of course, the touchdown went. Barendt kicked goal Score Twenty-second ', c. & A. ?.
 Near the close of the game. Banks of the Twenty-second. who is well known to local sport followers on ac count of his playing baseball here both on soldiers and the Boosters teams, was expelled from the play fol rough tactics.
 In the last quarter the soldiers were in the shadow of the c. & A. goa when tumble gave the oval to the miners who were forced to punt. The soldiers took the ball from the c. & A 40-yard line and resumed the journey
