ROSE POLY DEFEATED
BY QUAKER MARKER
SCORED ON KICK OFF

Saturday afternoon. The first home
game of the season was practically All
even match, the only score being made
on the kickoff when Rose Poly failed
TO touch the ball which Hinshaw punt
ed across their goal line The entire
game, up to the third quarter, was
stiff battle of line jabs and off tackle
plays with no attempt to pull any
thing spectacular. In the third period
both elevens opened up an aerial at
tack but were unable to connect for
any gains.
Hinshaw kicked off and Emslie fell
on the ball behind the Rose Poly
goal line in the first few seconds
of play. The touchdown came SO
quickly that most of the Rose Poly ag-
gTegation and many of the spectators
failed to realize what had happened un.
til the Quakers started to line up for
the try for point. 1t was a clean
game. with practically no injuries and
few substitutions. Many punts were
exchanged in which Hinshaw out-dis-
tanced Shelters by several yards. The
Quaker play had improved greatly
over the style of game they displayed
at Dayton and the Maroon and White
hackers are hoping that this weeks
drill will put them in shape to take
Buffers measure on Irwin field. next

score Rose Poly tried % pass across
the Quaker goal line but failed to con-
meet and it was Earlham's ball on
