For It Saturday Afternoon
Coaches Friendlander and Tarver
are to be congratulated on the work
they have done with The O.. II. s.
team this year. The team Saturday
showed a marked improvement over
any previous work done on the home
gridiron As a unit the 0cala team
is working with the precision of a
well oiled piece of machinery. Every
man on the team played his position
in creditable manner Saturday aft
ernoon in the game with DeLand.
Although outweighed by a good
many pounds the Ocala line held like
a stockade and at no time during the
game did ii allow the DeLand team to
get through in time to seriously inter
fere with the consummation of the
play in-the back field 0cala's weak
est point in this game was shown in
fumbles and strange to relate a fum-
BILE was DeLand's salvation. 1t was
upon a tumble by one of her own
team that she made her only touch
down. One of her players fumbled
the ball when tackled and by freak
of fortune another DeLand player
was the only man close around. He
recovered the ball and had an open
field for a touchdown.
