The followers of the newly organ
lied Willmar City football team were
| one in predicting that the local city
team would emerge from Sundays
! clash the better half Of the contending
parties but they never dared to pro-
| phesy that walk-away would be the
| outcome. But that is the way the
game pointed. The Glenwopd outfit
were plainly outclassed and begging
| turnout the four quarters and only
| at rare instances during the game did
they at all menace the attractive
score being piled up by Willmar.
Their line was not strong or sturdy
enough on the barrier policy and it's
aggressive work was frustrated by
the powerful and smoothly operating
| defense line of Willmar. The upshot
OF the affair was thirty-four handsome
points recorded for Willmar and a
| cipher for Glenwood. Some time ago
Glenwood was defeated by Alexandria
| by a score OF 20 and the locals
strove to the utmost to exceed that
number and after having annexed an
| other touchdown to the ~ points ar
| rived at in the third quarter they
rested easier and were appeased
without any strenuous efforts being
| advanced to make further gains.
Having but the slight benefit Sc
cured In two practices previous to
the game the boys themselves expect
ed rough and ready battle but to
their surprise found the Glenwood
lads milder and less pugnacious than
they expected, in fact, they began
romping around at will, from the first
blast OF the whistle. On the attack
ing phase of the game Willmar at
option tore large gaps in the oppos-
ing line thru which Hartvick and
Peterson plunged for fat measures.
Orlean Christian making long sweeps
around left and would find open street
ches awaiting for him cleared by the
heavy and brisk line of his team
mates. The visitors line was feeble
and broke away under the onslaught
of the local stars. The Willmar men
displayed higher style of playing and
their generalship was much super
1or. The boys playing teamwork in
clock-like regularity and stood in
solid phalanx in support of the men
with the ball. Forward passes were
resorted to by Glenwood but were
either poorly thrown or intercepted
by local. Willmar forgot the for
ward pass and seemed to find more
pleasure and gain larger distances
thru line plunges and end runs.

| touchdowns and made the great gain:
for Willmar. Conway, the husky left
| tackle, also broke loose and shovel
the Willmar ball ahead for substan-
| tlal lengths. Lloyd Peterson at full
| also planted the ball betwixt the goal
posts for a touchdown. Orlean Chris
tan also had two touchdowns to his
| credit and by his end runs brought
out the cheers of the crowd. During
the first quarter no touchdowns were
made as it took this period for each
team to study each other and decide
upon plan OF action for point get
ting. During the second quarter the
locals proved that they had sized up
their opponents correctly as they
pushed the ball over twice but kicked
goal only once bringing the score tc
1870 at the close of the half period
During the first quarter of the second
half two more balls were carried &C
ross the goal line with the goal kicked
IN both instances. In the last frame
of the game another and the fina
touchdown was credited to Willmar
goal kicked and promoting the score
to $40.
