Aggies Win Over
Se9shore Camp Ground
BY Sam Seidler.

tory over The Sea Shore Camp
Ground School by using the hammer
to the tune of Sc to O. Although
rolling up score on the coast
eleven the Aggies by no means had
an easy time of it, for never have
the Aggies been threatened at their
own goal posts as they were by
this eleven and it was only by
superior blocking of the areial at
tack by the Aggies and the failure
of d drop kick that kept the oval
from going over the Poplarville
goal Another thrill and which also
threatened the Aggie's. goal was an
intercepted forward pass by the
opposition, which was brought with
in striking distance of the goal posts
after a run OF about twenty yards,
the man carrying the ball was
forced out OF bounds at which the
Aggies buckled down and held ike
"a stone wall. and after breaking up
forced the Sea Shore back to kick
and in his haste, E. Rouse's toe
missed the pigskin, the ball rolling
to the five yard line, where halfback
johnson picked up the oval and
raced the full length of the field for
a touchdown, This run by Johnson,
which covered ninety-five yards was
the finest exhibition of broken field
ruylninp ever seen @p the A. 5. H..
Campus. due to the fact that nc
raced it alone and managed to rid
himself with the interference he was
confronted with by Bowling, the little
speedy end, by using the stiff arm
with telling eilect throwing, his
,oppenent to the ground twice. but
VINO wouldn't stay put, but who was a
close second to the Aggie lefthalf-
back when he crossed the goal line.
The Aggies seemed little too con-
fident in the first half Of the game,
but soon found out tht they were
up against an eleven that was de-
termined to cope with them and in
the first quarter it was nip and
tuck for the first nine minutes OF
plav. but when the Aggies came IN
possession of the ball in the last
1ive minutes of play in the first
quarter, they started a march down
the field, with successive line
phlnges mixed in with a couple OF
end runs until "Bish" Clark crossed
The goal line for the first touch
down after which Forbes kicked
goal for the extra point. Again In
the second quarter the opposition
kept the Aggies from their goal
until more than half of the fifteen
minutes had been consumed and then
it was by the hardest of offensive
work that the Aggies managed to
push johnson over for the second
touchdown, but the goal was missed
by Clarke for the extra point making
the score l3 to 0, at the end of the
first half
During the internission tlere musr
have been some pep distributed TO
the Aggies, which Undoubtedly must
have mustered them up to the
point that they realized that they
were not putting everything into The
came that they have heretofore been
in habit of throwing into the con
flcts, and the way the stuff TOOK
effect in. the last quarter OF the
ame. ii might be said that they
were given an overdose. for ms
kind Of football that was crowded INTO
hat hast fifteen minutes OF play
was t,e most sensational ever see
in Poplarville; sandwiched in with
that ninety-five yard run for
touchdown by Johnson, and beau
tiful forty yard run for toueh-
down by White. who no doubt Is
The most consistent ground gaineF
of the Aggie offensive. That Whi'e
is postmaster in the backfield can
be seen that the play is well re-
hearsed before il comes off every
man is in place and if he is not, ne
soon finds out. and at the snap OF
the bali the entire team is ike one
man. The interference is far above
mar and there is a whole iot IN iol-
