Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-11-25

Great Falls high meets Hariowton
this afternoon at 2:30 at Earring PARK
in the first of three post season hurdles
which the Blue and White hopes to
negotiate before annexing the title OF
state football interscholastic champion
for 1922.
Coaches Franklin Lewis and L. r.
Daems piloted II Harlowton stalWarts
into the city Friday afternoon and re
paired to Earring park as soon as The
team could shift into toys for a short
signal. drill. This took the railroad
journey kinks out of legs and accus-
toned the visitors to the field on which
football honors for the northern dis
trict will be fought out this afternoon
Neither the Harlowton nor the Great
Falls coach will predict a victory tor
his eleven. Both are content with
labelling it a hard game which will bring
out the best in the two fighting eievens'
Il surely hope that this weather con
tinues and that we can play on a fast:
dry field was Head Coach Lewis
comment. "A1y team will work to the
best advantage with a gridiron IN this
condition. No team can show its stuff
on a wet, Doggy playing field"
Head Coach M. L. Crouch of the
Blue and White was noncommltal.
I'VE realize that Harlowton IS up here
with a good team and one which Will
give us the toughest kind OF a fight
1t is wrong to underestimate the!r
strength because Harlowton is a small
err school than Great Falls, and their
showing this fall ought to have squashed
any such error in judgment.
Old Montana Captain
This is very true. In addition to
Head Coach Lewis, the Hariowton
squad has this year had the benefit of
all the football knowledge of l.. K
Daems. For the short memorled, It IS
perhaps we'll to state that he captalned
the University of Montana team ~
1915. This was the team Missoula still
talks of when reverses come, the one
which fought Syracuse to a 6-6 tie.
This was the yearA%Syracuse looped it
west with such giants as Babe" White
and the terrible Schlacter ripping Up
posing lines to shreds.
1t looks, witha1, like q very pretty
contest this afternoon. More enthusl-
asm is being shown around the city
than for any game on the Blue and
White schedule, and this is justified.
Coach Crouch has brought his aggre-
CATION through a long and hard sched-
ule, and the team is now at tip-top
form and fighting on top the ladder for
this year.
Best Great Falls Lineup
The Blue and White starts with its
strongest possible front. Del Lowry
and Fritz Anderson take care of the
line tips. Captain Fritz Baier and
Thisted are working at tackles, and 1t
is on this pair that the brunt of the
line play. both offensive and defensive,
will fall. Mike Harris and c. Anderson
flank Olson at center.
In the backfield. Jimmy Charters
starts at quarter and his early season
end runs may bring the crowd up stand
ing this afternoon if he can get away.
Murphy will be held in reserve and shot
into the breach should anything hap
pen. Although not SO good carrying
the pigskin himself, he drives the team
with never a letup. and can usually be
depended on for good judgment in call
ing his plays.
Hober and Woodahl start as half
backs. Iiober showed a world Of power
the last time he was seen here, against
Butte. and Woodahl played his top
game last week against Lewistown.
1t looks as though both these backs
were just rounding into rare form.
George Sohl will operate at fullback.
and this triple threat back should be a
constant worry, running, kicking and
passing as he an.
Teamwork the Basis
Harlowton is an eleven where team
work is the basis for success as op-
posed to individual starring: 1t is a
team of veterans, practically all the
letter men having played in 1921. 1t
has been scored on but once this sea-
son. Judith Gap having fluked a touch
down. The likelihood of the Gap earn
ing one is reflected in the final score
of the game, 113 to 6. Every other
opponent has been BANKED, the strong
