BULLDOGS CAMELY
 FIGHT CAMP PIKE
LUCK HELPS ARMY 6TOO
Soldiers Pursue Raw Tactics fingered by Superb Defense Woody's
 Men Sustain.

Having an advantage in weight of about 20 pounds to the man and con- fident of finding the Bulldogs an easy prey, the crack third division team from Camp Pike met a Tartar on Russell field Saturday afternoon and was battled almost to standstill by the superb fight which the Hendrix men made. At times, the Pikers bore down the lighter Hendrix men by sheer weight, but once neaf the goal line, Woody's men braced with the best "come back" wallop seen here in years, and held the soldiers back. A 1 lucky forward pass to Gross in the 1 second quarter accounted for Pike's only score, the game ending to 0.
 In the long history of football here, Conway fans have probably never be- fore witnessed such an exhibition of poor sportsmanship and objectionable attitude toward the public at large as was exhibited by the Pike team and the 150 or more soldiers who accom- panied them. From the outset, the Pikers incurred the censure of the team and the side lines, and near hos tilities were imminent at several stages of the hard fought game. Early in the grapple, Captain, Coach and Quarterback Gilbert was benched by Referee Campbell for fouling Ed Charles when the nervy Hendrix end piled him in his tracks. A yell of derislon greeted the Piker for his act As the game wore on, Blodgett, former Williams College star and all-Ameri- can end, replaced Gilbert in the con- tempt of the crowd It was said Blodgett struck small boy standing on the side lines. After that Blod- gett's name was Yellow Eight" that being the number on his jersey.
 Four penalties were inflicted by Referee Campbell and Umpire May, and one by William Harton, who start ed the game as head linesman. The Pikers raised howl at his decision, and Harton withdrew. Coach Woody vigorously protested the manner in which the officials handled the game,  without interruption. Newton, who made a place for himself by his sus- ,tained and effective play, was hurt by rough handling which the Pikers aimed at him. Mann, who stayed in despite injuries, was another target for the Pikers. His injuries may keep him out of the next fracas.
 M. J. Russell for the Hendrix fac ulty said today that the game with Camp Pike was scheduled in return for the one given the Bulldogs at the camp last year. Athletic relations regularly with camp elevens were at no time proposed by the Hendrix athletic committee, Mr Russell said, the game Saturday cancelling the obligation and leaving the college free to pick it's own opponents. MT. Russell also said the college very much appreci- ated the loyalty which Conway fans displayed in behalf of the Bulldogs, on and off the field.
 Hendrixs eleven to a man displayed fighting qualities which bode ill for college elevens to be played this sea- son. The fight which Coach Woody has insisted every man display came out strongly under the one sided and overbearing onslaughts of Pike's heavy backs, and enabled the lighter Hendrix men to pile them for losses.
 Defensive work of the highest order was shown in the third period, when Hendrix's line held back Pike with less than one yard to be covered for goal. Joe Coleman, when Woody let him in, led the fight. Newton aided with the best bunting seen on Hendrix field, while others on the team were doing their full share of desperate fighting. Farris was in the game for FHendrix and proved his worth by all around effectiveness.
 Several hundred Conway fans who witnessed the contest joined in cen- surfing the Pikers and praising the re- markable and sustained defense which the lighter Bulldogs maintain
 ed against the army eleven.
