The game was prolonged by de-
lays caused by many substitutions
and the holding of the spectators
back of the sidelines. Time out
was called several times by the
referee to push the eager bystand-
ers off the playing field.
The high team, despite the handl-
cap of it's being the first time many
of the players have appeared in a
regular game, performed in credit
able manner against their more y
perienced opponents. The green
men took to the game like ducks to
water and it should be only short
time before they are able to hold
their own with the best.
March, at right tackle, played one
of the important parts on the line.
He smashed through like an OLD
head in the game Alvine and
Magyar proved to be hard hitters and
furnished no easy avenues for the
older heads to travel in the Of
tense. Hall displayed his old form,
showing up well in tackling. Under
the leadership of Howard DOMAIN.

down the other end and showed
signs of development. Substitutions
of Searle and Ramser at the wing
positions were necessary. Hunter
showed style in field running, fol-
lowing his interference like a more
experienced player. He also fig
ured well in tackling. Rinck is a
hard smasher. as a backfield m n,
but found some diff Guilty in pick
ing holes. He should prove to be
the man for the line bucks. Good
geEeralship featured Shelters work
at quarter, and although somewhat
light, he is a flash at tackling A
great deal is expected of Olson this
year, after the way he handled
himself Saturday With plenty of
beef adorning his sturdy structure,
he continually smashed the line for
gains. Reed, in the back field, also
showed signs of aggressiveness.
Coach Kimmel is more than salts
fed with the manner in which his
men appeared Saturday and hard
practice is scheduled next to cover
up the weak points evident in the
first clash of the season.
Morrison, for the alumni, pre-
scented a valuable lesson to the
younger boys in the line drives. He
some fine playing. and
with Morris, made a number of
lengthy runs. Masters, who cap
tanned the victorious squad, pre-
scented his ability and experience
He was especially adept in picking
weak spots and going for steady
gains. Durling also played con-
sistent game.
