At League Park.
By JIMMIE BAUGH.

Columbus ripped off 2 to 0 Vie
tory al the expense OF Central High
school foot ball eleven, at League
park Yesterday afternoon by scoring
safety in the last four minutes OF
play.
Nearly 1000 students turned out
TO witness the encounter, which was
featured by an array of tactics. Both
teams pun,ed frequently and Central
employed aerial work for several
long gains. End runs also netted
considerable ground tor the locals.
Central Gains Ground
y Central gained the most ground
and the Columbus squad was on
the defensive considerably during the
first half However. in the third the
visitors rallied and outplayed the
purple jerseyed warriors, but were
never able to score, although several
times having the ball in the danger
zone.
Central was sent into the gloom
AT defeat in the closing minutes OF
the fourth period when Beerklc
iumbed a punt and was downed be-
hind Columbus goal.
The first quarter was punting
duel between Beerkle of Central and
Arthur Oechlrick. fullback for Co.
lumbus.
Punts we're employed frequently
in the second quarter also. A for
ward pass, Hoerner to Sautter, net
ted 40-yard gain.
Attempts Drop Kick
The Ccntraltes fought their way
to their 30-yard line and Stribling
attempted drop kick, but it missed
the sticks by few feet. The ball
was brought into play on the 20
yard line and Columbus Immediately
punted out Of danger.
Central received the punt and car
ried the ball for a small gain. Gains
by Beerkle and Galloway again set
the stage for drop kick by Strib-
ling, which fell short by several
yards. The first half ended with The
oval in Central's territory.
The third period saw the passing
game in USE Goo took a forward
pass for a ls-yard gain. He also
skirted left end for a l5-yard gain.
Central blocked several forward
passes and straight foot ball again
became the order of the day for the
invaders.
Central Backs to Wall.
The game closed with the Central
ties fighting with their backs to the
wall. Central attempted punt from
behind Columbus goal, which was
blocked, and the ball was put out
Of play by the referees whistle as
the teams piled up behind the line
in mad scramble to recover the
