FOrty-seyen to Nothing -LOcal Team
Never Scored Against.
In one of the fastest and hardest
fought games of the season the Twin
Falls high school football team de-
feated the Gooding team by the de-
cisive score Of AZ to 0. This was the
seventh game of the season and the
sixth game in which Twin Falls has
held their opponents scoreless. Good
ing and Twin Falls having played a
game early in the season at GOOding
which resulted in a IA to IA tie.
The game was holly contested
throughout, Gooding receiving the ball,
after a few line plunges, which gained
them no yardage they were forced to
give the ball to Twin Falls. The plays
then went forward without a break
Newman carried the ball for a touch
down during the first three minutes
of play. During the remainder OF the
first quarter no scores were made,
though the game was played mostly in
| the Gooding territory. At the begin
ming of the second quarter Twin Falls
had the ball on GOOding's 20-yard line.
Fix broke through the line and receiv-
ed a forward pass, and then carried
the ball over the goal line for the sec
Ond touchdown. After the kickoff
Twin Falls again carried the ball near
Gooding's goal, but the visitors held
blew for the end of the first half the
ball was in Gooding's possession and
near their own goal. In the last
scrimmage at the close of the first
half, Bailey, GOoding's fast right half,
was taken from the game because of
a severe injury to his neck, received
while making a fierce line plunge.
Twin Falls came back strong in the
second half GoOding came back de-
termined to score; they fought hard,
but their line had been greatly weak
ened and they were unable to resist
the fierce plunges of the Blue and
White warriors Twin Falls surpris-
ed the visitors with their renewed
| force and determination.
The Twin Falls boys showed SUI
perior training and better condition
than the Northsiders. A great part
of the game was played on the Good
ing territory. but several times it
looked as though Gooding might
score The clever lodging and
straight arming of Bailey and Boelter
made them long gains, and several
times they were a few yards from the
Twin Falls goal. 1t was at these
points that the home boys played their
| hardest, determined that Goodlng
should not be the first to cross their
goal line on the new field. Five more
| touchdowns were made during the sec
ond half. One spectacular play being
when Lavender made a fOrty-yard run,
straight arming and lodging through
the Gooding back field, for a touch
down.
This was one of the best games
seen on the Twin Falls field this year.
The weather was ideal, and a large
and enthusiastic crowd witnessed the
game The Gooding team outweighed
the Twin Falls team. Both teams
/ showed good coaching, but the home
/ no MI
| showed the best condition and en-
durance.
This was the last game for the first
squad on the home field for this sea-
son, as they will go to Nampa for a
| game on Thanksgiving with the fast
team of that section.
