a touchdown.

game. On one brilliant play he ran 81

er, st. Clouds star halfback. The tWt
Johnsons, Maynard and Melville, were
able to gain much ground. Maynard
caused ST. Cloud lots of trouble b!
intercepting some of their nice passes
Linn at halfback played whale O
a game on the defensive and also wa
good at kicking. Willmar's line ha'
=, much to do with Saturdays score a
very few men got thru them and man,
times the opponents were driven bac]
when the speedy linesmen got in be
fore the Granite City backfield wa
fairly started. Randall Peterson a
left end was used in many cross buc1
plays which always Melted his team
