The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1922-11-13

used up it's first three downs with
incompleted passes and then punt
ed The best bit of work accom-
plished from a running formation
was contributed by Mahrt, who
once got away for IL yards, around
end. The few times Dayton got
into Rock Island territory were
due either a penalties, or to punts
made by Rock Island from the.
shadow of its own goal.
Only Two Fumb.es.
f! In spite of the slippery condi-
ton of the ball, there were only
two fumbles in the entire game,
and both by Dayton. "Tillie" Voss
recovered one of these and ran for
a touchdown. Dewey Lyle fell on
line and paved the way for
touchdown: Rock Island handled
the bail Clearly on every play. The
line charged hard, tackled hard
and seldom permitted runner to
get into the secondary defense.

lineup with the exception of u
lery, star halfback. Ullery's ILL
ness prevented his appearance in
Rock Island. Otherwise the Day
tonians took the field as adver-
tised Thiele, star end. was
forced from the game early by in
juries, but Fenner, who also play
ed against Rock Island here two
years ago, took his place.
