WENTWORTH BATTLES
VETS TO A TIE
A Hard Fought Game. Pep And
Training Prove A Match For
Beef And Experience.

Wentworth Military Academy
may feel mighty proud of the
the result of the football game
Saturday with the Kansas City
Vets when the cadets battled to
a draw with as fine a bunch of
physical specimens as has ever
appeared in Lexington in foot
ball togs. This was the first
game of the season for the Vets
and if they receive the proper
sort Of coaching and training for
a short time, it will take a pretty
nifty bunch Of fellows to give
them a beating. They were much
heavier than the cadets, possi-
bly, fifteen pounds to the man,
and their lineup included such
college stars as Briny from the
Kansas Aggies and Scott from
the Texas A. and M.
The first quarter was score
less, the ball sew-sawing back
and forth with the Vets the ag-
gressors. In the second quarter
the Vets left half broke through
for two long runs, their supreme
effort of the game, and scored a
touchdown in an extreme corner
Of the field. The ball was kicked
out to good position but the
try for goal was a failure. The
first half ended with the Vets
leading 6 to 0.
Just what sort Of dope Coach
Wykotf used on his boys during
the intermission, no one knows
but the result of the treatmeni
was apparent right off the reel
The cadets speeded up and were
soon after the Vets nanny
They carried the fight in foreign
teiFitoEJ with vim aud vigor an(
soon had their heavier opponents
wondering if some mistake haC
not been made, and another
team substituted for the cadets
The Vets fought vigorously t,
maintain their Slender lead ant
the cadets fought ditto to wipe i
out, and succeeded. By the exc
cution of a forward pass or two
and a penalty for interference
the ball was jammed over for
touchdown, tying the score. Tn
attempt for goal didn't help.
The fourth quarter was
Lulu and then SOME. 1t wa
all in Vet territory and in tn
last minute of play Byler, 70
the cadets, missed a place kic
by inches.

Football Championship No
Longer.

been the best game OF IootDaH
seen in Lexington for many
years, Lexington High Fri
day defeated Marshall High by
the score Of 6 20 0. 1t was a fight
from start to finish, and the pep
and fight that Lexington show
ed won the game. The Marshall
team was ten pounds heavier to
the man than Lexington's, but
the Lexington boys out played
them at every point Of the game.
The heavy Marshall back field
|put up splendid interference on
end runs, but by the time the
second half had begun, Lexing-
ton had solved that play and
were downing the end runs for
a loss.
Marshall came with a long
string of victories, this being
their first defeat of the season.
In the games they have played
this year they played Columbia
High School a 0 to 0 game, beat
Moberly Highs 7 to 0, and de-
feated Slater High 81 to 7. They
play Kirksville High at Column
lbia the morning of Thanksgiv-
, ing to decide the state champion
ship. So you can see the class
, Of players L. H. S. defeated.
No one on the Lexington team
could be picked out as PLAYING
: a star game. 1t would not be fair
: to his teammates. Every one
put every ounce of pep and
? strength into the battle. The
lexington team work was espec-
tally noticeable, all the PLAYERS
working together like a we'll oil
ed machine.
= Lexington won the soss and
: chose TO defend the west goal.
2 A series Of plays carried the ball
: well into Marshall territory

make a drop kick, but failed,
Marshall receiving the ball on
= its ten yard line. Marshall kick
= ed the ball out of danger, but
: it was returned to Marshall ter
ritory and kept there for the
remainder Of the quarter. Dur
ing the second quarter the ball
: See-sawed up and down the field,
being in Marshall's possession
= on LeXington's thirty yard line
when the first half was up.
In the third quarter, Lexing-
ton kicked off to Marshall, who
frequently resorted to punting
to get the ball out of dangerous
territory. Towards the last of
the quarter, Lexington carried
the ball down the field by line
smashes and forward passes
and then carried it over for a
touchdown by neat forward
pass, Holleron to Burgess. The
try for goal went astray.
In the fourth quarter, the bal
renamed for the greater part
of the time between the forty
yard lines. But towards the last
the Marshall beef began to tel
on their lighter opponents anc
Marshall was carrying the bal
well into Lexington territory
When the final whistle blew
