Lancaster III has had hard schedule
this year and have been very fortdn-
ate indeed to come through .hcse
many strong battles without any seri-
Gus injury. however. the Covington
game on Armistiee day told the tale
for the locals and the punishment that

on the game fighting lads even up to
the present date.

ham Of the visitors crossed the goal
line for a six point margin and Capt.
Cox kicked the goal in the try for

played up and down the field with
great playing on the parts Of both
elevens.
In the second quarter Lancaster
n made her lone three points when
Capt. Cox Of the local Hi squad kick
ed a goal from the 35 yard line
This quarter found the locals out
playing the Cynthiana team. as both
c. Gastineau and W. Robinson were
psying the game Of their lives and
were gaining ground at will, often
tearing huge holes in the Cynthiana
line for long gaines just TO carry the
pigskin to the line that counts touch
downs and their have to give il up.

when the two sturdy lads. Gastineau
and Robinson. carrying the inflated
leather to the goal lines and there
were compelled to turn the old ball
over to the visitors. After playing
the ball up and down the field. often
exchanging punts and here is where
Lawson and Estes. the star wing men
for Lancaster Iii, played their wonder
game as they would often tackle the
Cynthiana lads in their tracks and
once or twice they threw them for
loss. II was in this third quarter
that Noe. another stellar player Of
Coach lngles' squad was able to cross
te line for their second touchdown
and there Capt. Cox kicked the goal
The fourth quarter found Coach
Heber's men putting forth everything
that they had under such conditions
and trying hard TO keep the fight
on. however, the Ingle men pulled
many trick plays and again crossed
the Hebermen line for their last mar
ker Of the contest and the score was
20 TO 3 when Cox missed the goal.
II was a sad sight to see when the
time keepers notified the Referee
that the teams had three minutes
longer TO play, one would have
thought that they were attending a
funeral in far of France TO see the
many sad faces that looked forward
to Coach Heber's squad in winning
this game and grabbing the State
Championship honors that they are
50 justly entitled to, however, with
every rose we get thorn. but allow
us 10 add please, that we had rather
not have rose with such a thorn.

Nooe and Oldham were the outstand-
ing stars for Coach Ingles' men from
