VICTORY SQUAD
WINS ANOTHER
Henry The Star Of The Contest

The Victory Eleven representing
Lancaster High kept up their win
ming streak when ut Springfield Fri
day. They managed to take the
scalp of ~ the Washington county
lads and let them down by the score
Of y to 3. This score would indicate
To our many readers that IL was
rather a hard fought game. such
would have been the case had the
locals been up in good shape and won
by such "a margin. however, the Field
General was suffering with an infec-
ted knee. W. W. Robinson received
a lick on his elbow in the Covington
scrap that put him out 81 the run
ming. {. Gastineau has a badly in
fected ankle. Crutchfield. the all
State tackle. still suffering from in
jurics received in the Madison coun-
~ scrap and G.. ID. Red" Robinson
pla, ed the game on the side lines with
"a sprained ankle.
| Coach Hebcr does not believe in
having substitutes IL he can use them
in such contests and he gave them all
a chance 10 work against the Wash
.ngton county aggregation. They
showed up well and played "a great
game. bu, the work Of Henry. who
received the call TO Reds" job was
the outstanding star Of the contest.
One would have thought that he was
an old timer by his great work both
on offense and defense. Henry call
ed times twice but would not think
of leaving the scrap and he together
with Lawson and Estes, the wing
men for Lancaster. were responsible
for the victory in Fridays game.
The Washington county lads re-
ceived the ball on the kick of and
were forced in n short time TO turn
u over and allow the Lancaster lads
to try their luck. Both elevens man.
aged TO run the ball by straight foot
ball up and down the gridiron when
nearing the last Of the first quarter
Captain Cox trotted out 10 kick n
field goal from the twenty yard line.
The second quarter was the same
as the first. both eleyens trying TO
gain through the line and at the last
resort would punt the half ended with
Lancaster having three points and
Springfield nothing.
Springfield strengthened IN the
third quarter and were well on their
way for a marker when they made
costly tumble and Lawson recover
ed same and ran fif,y-five yards for
Lancaster's touchdown, Lancaster
failing To kick the goal in the try for
point. making the score y TO o for
L. II. 5.
Again the last few minutes Of play
in the fourth quarter, the Washing
ton county aggregation came near
scoring when within ten yards Of
their own goal. They again fumbled
this time Estes recovering the ball.
Lancaster III pun,ed out with two
forward passes on the part Of the
Springfield boys and a fifteen yard
penalty called on Lancaster. They
again carried the inflated leather 10
their ten yard line where they in the
las, five seconds Of play with a place
ment kick sent the oval between the
bars that counted for them three
points. making the old game end with
Lancaster having the larger end Of
he count, to 3.
The Athletic Director would have
been justifiable in caneelling this
contest. owing to the poor condition
OF his charges. however. he did not
wish TO have the same name that sew
eral Of the high schools have who
have gotten little chilly and cancel
ed their engagement with the Ian
caster squad, giving no excuses at
all. so Coach Heber lief, for the dis
,ant city with all Of his second string
men and brought, home the grapes.
