The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-11-09

The company of Adrian Maurer and associates, football artists, performed in Birmingham Saturday and Maurer. the star of the company. gave his usual exhibition of running across the field a few times for touchdOwns. Mau- rer's team, Oglethorpe, beat Howard College. 32 to '.
 When the familiar black -jerseyed back with the golden number 1, was seen in position to start run the fans rose expectantly with a There goes Maurer" The Oglethorpe captain performed much as the trained dogs in the circus and after running for touchdown or so he would be recalled to the bench and wrapped in black blanket until later when he would be sent out again to run over another touchdown or two and come out again.
 However, the opposition show con sisting of Captain Ham Stevens and co-workers vied strongly for the spot light even with star Maurer on the field and once Captain Stevens stole it completely with a 50-yard dash through the Oglethorpe team which surpassed any performance on the field that day. In addition to this wilful pilfering of another's audience, the Stevens company often musSed up the Maurer show and threw the star for no gain:
 Towards Fake Scores
 The pretty fake which enabled Red fern to dash through tackle for 25 yards and touchdown in the second quarter was mimcked by the Stevens company in the same period and carried through with equal precision.
 Harwood, substitute halfback. on a delayed buck, ran easily through a wide open space in the middle of Ogle thorpe line for Is yards and a touch down. Meanwhile Captain Stevens was befuddling the brains of the defensive backs with queer antics resembling an end run. Captain Stevens kicked goal
 Maurer broke loose for three or four beautiful runs. The best exhibition he gave was a 56-yard run through left tackle and then cut back behind the Howard line cluding -four or five tacklers. He trotted the final b yards across the goal line as all pur- suers had been shaken off. On three other occasions he crossed the Howard goal line.
 Maurer Goes Over
 In the first quarter OglethOrpe smashed Towards line for first downs until reaching the Howard seven-yard line. A five-yard penalty was adminis- tered the local boys and Kilgore made one yard and Maurer was given the ball to carry over He was not tackled as he went through a big hole. The other crossing terminated 31-yard run which was masterpiece in a small scale. He dashed through tackle for the score. Ten yards around end in the third quarter brought him across the goal line with a Howard halfback, Tin kelpaugh, swinging on.
 Redfern scored the other touchdown for OglethOrpe on a fake play which completely fooled the Baptists. Slayton faked an end run after fooling the de- fensive backs into thinking he received the ball from Redfern as he passed on his journey. Pursuing defensive men discovered too late their error and Red fern went through tackle for % yards and the counter.
 Kilgore proved to be hard man for the Howard forwards to stop as he charged the Crimson line. He was the most consistent ground gainer of the day and was stopped fewer times than any of the other Petrel backs.
 Carroll played a good game at end for the Peterels and Corliss did well in the position left vacant by Parrish, who watched the game in civilian clothes.
 Tinklepaugh Big Star
 For Howard the outstanding star of the day was the smallest man on the field. Russell Tinkelpaugh, the mid get Howard substitute quarterback, was the surest tackler of the lot and brought down the elusive Petrel backs often. He played n fine offensive game, passing we'll and running bacE punts in great form. He returned one punt 35 yards, but was tackled so viciously that he lost the bail. He re- covered the blocked kick in the SeconI quarter on Oglcthorpe'S l6-yard line. hich gave the Bulldogs their oppor- tunity to strike the. Petrels' goal.
