LAMAR FOOTBALL TEAM
RUNS OVER ROCKY FORD
Frosty Weather Takes all the Pep Out
of the Melon Kids and Lamar
Wins Easy Victory.

The Thanksgiving Day football
game was supposed to be a champion
ship fight TO finish, but the Rocky
Ford boys failed to put up that kind
of fight. In fact the loyal bunch
of rooters they brought down with
them made better showing than the
team did.
1t was fine football weather, just
cold enough for heavy work and the
Lamar people turned out In larger
numbers than they have for several
years. They 90 far outnumbered all
expectations that the tickets prepared
for admission ran out fully quarter
of an hour before the game started
and the crowd kept pouring into the
grounds for some time after the teams
were hard at it.
ever seen here in all respect both as
to the crowd and the playing. The
only time either side was penalized
was when n Lamar touchdown was dis
allowed and the team was given ten
yard loss because the coach kicked at
the decision. Two boys were hurt SO
badly as to have to be taken out.
Winsor, one Of the Lamar stars had
a knee wrenched in the last quarter,
and one Of the Rocky Ford boys suf-
fered a dislocated shoulder few min
utes later.
Capt. Howard Hall, who was the
star Of the Las Animas game, owing
to injuries received in that game did
not start in this game, but when Win
sor was injured he limped into the
contest and was received with cheers.
He made several runs and tackles that
looked like most anything but q Grip
pie.
Lamar made touchdowns in all four
quarters. but the referee disallowed the
one in the fourth quarter. Opinions
differ widely as to whether he was
right or wrong, but the same play
was made and allowed in the Las Ami
mas game. The score was 10 to 0.
Practically all the gains were made
by straight old fashioned line bucking.
Only one forward pass was completed
in the game and it was made by Rocky
Ford team on the fourth down and the
gain was not sufficient to retain the
ball. The Lamar boys were able to
make their gains right along when
they had possession Of the ball and
but for several fumbles would have
made n much higher score. Rocky
Ford though outplayed in every de-
partment of the game did fine come
back towards the close and in the last
ten minutes of play kept the ball al
most continuously in Lamar territory
and looked several times as il they
were sure to score. The entire La
mar line though would brace at the
last ditch and save the day. The boys
worked together like well prepared
and managed machine and their con-
sistent work reflected great credit on
Coach Koonsman, who has built the
best team in the valley out of abso-
lutely new material and in few weeks
of training. Winsor, lie Grande, Prov
ers and Pierson carried the ball over
repeatedly for long gains and were
ably assisted in this by the work of
the rest Of the team.
The other preliminary championship
game between Trinidad and Las Ami
mas resulted in z to tie and left
the championship still badly mixed.
1t is not known yet whether the win
ner of the game played between those
teams in Trinidad yesterday will play
Lamar or not. Las Animas has agreed
but Trinidad has not as yet.

freeze to their positions and the
three-cornered tie-up gave little
promise of a break in the early
balloting at night.
Chairman Robinson called the

carried by practically unanimous
vote.
BY this time it appeared certain
that both Cox and McAdoo had been
eliminated and that after Palmer
had been fed few more of the Nc
Adoo votes he, too, would join the
procession, making a dark horse Sc
lection necessary.
McAdoo had been given his Sec
ond trial for the nomination and
had failed to go above AL votes.
This was the highest vote he had
been able to muster in all of two
days voting.
As the delegates adjourned for the
recess it was the belief that while
further attempt might be made to
boost McAdoo to the front 1t could
hardly succeed in view of the two
failures he had registered in the
race for a two-thirds' vote.
The managers for Cox insisted he
was still a strong factor in the race
and that after Palmer had been per-
pitted to make a few gains on the
next succeeding ballots, his strength
would flow back to Cox and put him
again to the front,
The managers of the several can
didates were called into conference
during the recess in an effort TO
bring about an agreement upon
