LAMAR LOSES FIRST ONE
Las Animas High School Team Takes
First Game by Score of Z to s.

A considerable crimp was put in
the Lamar Savages' football champion
ship aspirations last Saturday when
the Las Animas eleven came down
and won first blood of the season by
the close score of z to 8. Each team
made a touchdown, but Las Animas
finished theirs up by kicking u goal
and the Lamar boys missed out by the
ball going about foot under the bar.
The game was at all times far more
one sided than the score would indi-
cate The first half was played in the
old fashioned line bucking style, and
the Las Animas team, which is the
team that won n state championship
years ago, had all the best of this
style of game. Almost the entire half
was played in Lamar territory, and it
was only a little lack Of punch that
kept Las Animas from making a much
larger score. As it was they were al
most to the Lamar goal line for the
second touchdown when the bell rang
for the end of the first half. The Las
Animas line simply had no hole in it
at all and our boys could not make
any appreciable gains through it. On
the other hand the Las Animas boys
made steady gains not so much
through the Lamar line as through
players waiting for taem to come in
stead of closing in on them.
In the second half Lamar changed
to the open game and at this had as
much the advantage over the visitors
as the latter had in the first half.
The home boys made fine forward
passes for large gains and carried the
ball into the Las Animas territory all
the time. They made two touchdowns
the first by one of the finest open
field seventy yard runs ever seen on
the home field. Johnny Prowers made
the run aided by perfect interference
by the rest of the Lamar team, but
the referee on a technicality disallow-
ed the score and this cost the Lamar
boys the game as they later made
second touchdown but failed to kick
goal. Much complaint has been made
over the decision of the referee, but
as the Register man doesn't know
enough football to know whether two
halfbacks make a fullback or just
quarterback. we won't express any
opinion. Later Lamar had fine
chance at field goal, but the throw
was faulty and the Las Animas men

portunity was lost

Guilford is probably the stoadiest

is farther off the tee. by many yards,
and when putting is the equal OF
either. His great length Is his great

who began with length settles down

to cases this is what | mean by that
statement. Jesse used TO swat for
length with an equal proportion oil
MAGNIFICENT drives mixed with poor
ones. So he learned to know the
rough and the bad lies, and he has
probably played more shots from
such environs than any of the top
notchers. Today that is an asset. Tor

adds no terrors to him. Jesse has
played that kind before many times.

Will Jesse P. Guilford, ameteur
champion Of the United States, retain
his title, when the Amateur, to be
PLAYED at the Country Club OF Brook
line, September 40. Is a matter OF
history? That question Is ALREADY
stirring the golf world. and down Dos
ton way where happen TO live, 1t IS
continually asked and talked over, FOR
there is more than the usual interest
manifested in the title play this sea
son.
Guilford has it in him to come
through again. He is one Of the most
finished golfers In the world; in fast
one OF tho best men ever to come
through In a national championship
But the matter OF his repeating Is an
other matter in spite Of the fine game
the titleholder is already shooting
this season.

licate their performances. Jerry

Of these repeating performances
brings to light the fact that, as We
get down to the present, the repeat
ing performance grow far fewer in
number
For example, take our Open. At the
dawn Of this century Willie Anderson
was evidently outclassing the field
for he won in 1901, 1908 1904 and
