The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-10-23

the battling elevens flying Auburn
 The game here this afternoon was fitting tribute to the gameness and come back" qualities of the Plains men. Up until the last few minutes of the game the score stood 2 to in favor of Camp Benning. However. in these last fleeting moments of the game the Tigers showed across two touchdowns and won the game, 14 to I, as neither goal after touchdown was kicked.
 The Benning outfit, under the coaching of Alex Cunningham, former head coach of the University of ; Georgia, is always made up of col /. lege stars of past seasons, num- {. Der of them from West Point. Me- Quarrie, who opposed the Plainsmen Hast year, was captain of the West Point team In 1919, while Bill Loui- sell was an all-southern tackle on { the Donahue clan In the palmy days /. of '12 and ia. Both teams resorted to the kicking game throughout. .a Garland Stars.
 e Peter Garland, iAuburn's little half hack, was a shining light from the { heginning to the end. Time and time again he returned the long punts of s Mctouarrie for 20 and 25 yards. and e a gain he flashed around the ends for substantial gains. Knapp did good work in going down under punts anu throwing the Benning backs in their -tracks for no gain.
 Howe's kicking was superb. and many times he sent the oval far into enemy territory Kirkwood and s"Rat" Peterson showed up well at { quarter, and both skirted the ends x for good gains In the line Pearce. lat tackle, and Gloster, at center. played the best game, while Noisy Grisham smeared the Benning for nations for two quarters, when ne was replaced by Edge, who did stellar work on the defensive. Shtrey made a nice run of 40 yards in the last flew minutes of play, when he car sried the ball to striking distance of sthe goal, to be bucked over by Shine Shirline. Charley Scott opened up For a 35-yard counter in the last few ininutes of play. when Shirling was again called on to place the oval over for Auburn's second touchdown.
