Paragould soliphone., 1922-10-16

uC l'dItSOuIu iIiou oNHOOi iOOt- ball team yesterday journeyed to Jonesboro and gave battle to the beayy lineup of that city. The game was the closest and hardest contested that has beon played be- tween the two schools in several seasons. The game little fighters of the local school showed up splendid ly against their heavier opponents, holding them to q scOrcleSS tie. The local boys were outWeighed not less than fifteen pounds 10 the man, What they lacked in weight was more than made up in speed, head work and determination. In addl- ton to the weight handicap the team was weakened by the absence of two of their first line men, GroOms and Whitman, who were forced to remain at home on account of deaths in their families. Further more, il was apparent that thc local team was considerably Worstcd in many of the official decisions during the progrSea of the game.
 X largo crowd witnessed the game and pep and enthusiasm ran high throughout the entire game. II was estimated that approximately 200 enthusiasts accompanied th" team from Paragouid It is the opinion of the writer that the local eleven decidedly ontcIasscd, out fought. and outplayed their "bce(ier' opponents, to say nothing of some very unsportsnanlike playing on the part of the latter.
 For the Plragoud team Salter ali quarter made the best show in lhc offensive work. while Triee at right end maintained fully his rcpu tation i'll the defense. Elder al fuIlbark and Haywood at right end were the stars for the Joncsboro eleven.
 The return game between the two teams will be played on the local field on Armistjce Day, November l1th. The game at Joncsboro by quarters follows:
