,#":.=%. F Saturday

p" Another rung in the ladder which
WHlmar is climbing to reach the
state championship was passed Sat
urday afternoon when the locals met
and completely :outclasseda Glencoe
on the local grounds. The standing at
the close of the game was 70 to 0 in
Willmar's favor. This victory dem
'onstrated that the local eleven on the
offensive, hacked by a team weight
average of 100 pounds, is a machine
quite difficult to halt Glencoe claim
ing several of it's best men were lost
to them thru scholastic ineligibillty
presented a weak lineup. Their av-
erage weight as given by Coach C.
w. Alger is 40 pounds with a back
field average of 145. Glencoe had
played three games before meeting
whitman. She defeated Buffalo Lake
80 to 0, Arlington 13 to 0 but was han
ded a defeat by Hector 81 to 6.
Expected to Lose
The Glencoe boys prior to- the
game admitted their lack of faith in
themselves to win or to put UP serl-
GUS opposition and their exhibition
of ball on the field substantiated this
admission: The visitors lacked
punch and the fighting spirit. In
plunging thru the line they found a
stonewall and in field runs displaytd
nothing of the determination which
spurred the locals in their long gains.
A weak hearted interest, absehce OF
offensive spirit and a foregone con
cMsion as to the games outcome,
were the agents which made Glencoe
such a feeble foe on Saturday. Their
morale was at low ebb when they
entered the game.
Wilimar Optimistic
Whitman on the other hand, fresh
from victory over St., Cloud and slz
ing up their opponents as weak
walked away with Glencoe from the
first kickoff. The Willmar line
plunge with Sandin, Linn, Grace and
Peterson as rams cut thru the Glen
coe line repeatedly for handsome
ground lengths.
La Mere Best Man
For Glencoe LaMere who was in
iured in thief second quarter, was by
far the best player Glencoe possessed
He together with Tadsen made the
long gains for Glencoe. Dysterheft
right end for Glencoe also ranks as
one of the best men on the eleven
None of these men however we're able
to penetrate to any serious extent the
bu!wark set up by the locals. Welct
received most of the kickoffs but die
not possess the speed or the boltine
power to pass the gauntlet arrayet
against him lby Wil7mar. Musala drove
thru the Willmar line for small gains
but no hole was ever torn open fo1
him to run into a clear field. Buss
Wicked off for Glencoe thruout tht
game.
