RIFLE DEFEATS MEEKER

The Mccker VIZ Rifle football game
played on the home field last Friday
afternoon drew large crowd consid.
ering the weather. which was cold
and threatening. The game was a
good one. and the spirit In which 1t
was played was the peppiest of the
season.
During the first uQnrter OF the
game Rife won n safety. The second
quarter had just begun when she
made touchdown and n goal kick
during the latter part of this quarter
Mecker was very near Rifles goal
line and needed but a yard to make
n touchdown when the whistle blew.
The last half proved disastrous for
the Mceker tenn In spite Of her stub
torn resistance for Rife by sheer
force Of weight was able to push
through for three touchdowns. Near
the end OF the game Meeker made a
safety. But in spite Of her hard and
poppy fight the game ended with n
final score of % to . in favor of Rifle.
In the evening The Meckcr High
School entertained the Rife boys nj
an informal dance In the school house
The party broke up before midnight
and everyone reported an excellent
time.
