in three tries Norton carried the ball over for the final touchdown.
 The Panthers displayed only poor tackling ability yesterday. Fluffy three-fourths of their tackles were around the neck or snoulders Supe- rior weight enabled them to stop their lighter opponents with thls style of tacklinG.
 Mike Norton Stars Coach Charlie Brown has good football team that will give some body trouble later on in the season. but the decided feature of yesterday s game was the determined stand of the Cadets, and their gameness at all times.
 Capt. Mike Norton ran the Panther eleven like the heady veteran he is.
 His work was the best in the Panther backfield, which was considerably shot to pieces In the game yester- day.
 Big Hoss" Candy, big tackle of the Panthers, played a star game on the line for the locals. Candy backed up the line on the defensive, and his { work was a feature of the battle. Candy stopped almost every rush that came his way, and he certainly deserves credit for his work yester- day afternoon.
 McMullin and Albert were the stars for Marion, the former on the of fensive and the latter on the defen- stve. McMullin, alter Turner was taken from the game, took the bur den upon his own shoulders, and he gained most of the ground for his team. He was a star that deserves much credit and. despite his lack of weight. he seems to be most prom 1 ising field general.
 Albert, at center, played sensa- tional defensive game. He was in every line play, and his ability to crash through to the center of every play was a decided help to his team mates. Albert looks good for all- | state honors this season. | Following Is the detail of play: First Quarter The Panthers were defending the north goal.

 Turner Knocked Out
 From the first kickoff however. 1t was apparent that Marion was con- ! sirerably moro husky than outward appearances indicated Hamele re- turned Gandy's kickoff 25 yards be- fore being downed, The Cadets then began a march down the field that seemed to know no stopping. With Turner, halfback and captain, rip ping off gain after gain of from to 10 yards, the Cadets registered three straight first downs and seemed well on the way Panther goalward. Then came the big crash.
 Turner, circlIng his right end, col lided with the brawny shoulder of Big Hoss" Candy, and he fell to the ground in limp helplessness, Four ribs had been crushed by the im- pact, and Turner was removed from the game, spiking one of the Cadets biggest guns on the offensive, Tur- ner's substitute was sent in, and the attack taken up where 1t was dropped, but 1t was obvious that much punch had been lost with Tur- nor.

 They were outweighed but they played good football, did those Cadets from Marion Their linesmen hit their heavier opponents every bit as hard as they themselves were hit and their tackling was much lower and surer.
