DEBORAH Lost to West Union

West Union, with a well balanced
and plucky fighting team defeated
the local high at West Union last
Saturday 20 to 3.
The outcome of the battle was a
surprise to most followers of the
local eleven. West Union played
football from start to finish. Their
players were in the game every min
ute. Their line with plenty of drive
out played the DEBORAH forwards
and their victory was due to a
certain extent to their strong de-
Tense.
DEBORAH high held West Union on
the locals 4 yard line for downs but
slowed up in midfeld.
Algyer's drop kick from the 40
yard line was the feature of the
local play together with Capt. Viste's
and Jewell's defensive playing.
