Drew A Daring Pilot

Drew A Daring Pilot
 It was during the second half that Coach Drew, who proved himself that day to be as. nervy general as could be found In most walks of life, sent his team in to win, not merely to hold the Tigers. That this was their inten- ton was clearly demonstrated when they gambled on many occasions with chance and fortune, once by long pass when they were on thcir own 20-yard line. This so completely surprised the Tigers that the Sunshine Slopes lads got away with it and Whiteside snagged the pass after Howell had batted it into the air and Peterson also hit 1t in the scramble.
 The Partners toyed with fire on sev- erai other occasions. Once Black hurled a pass at Howell from his own 2S- yard line, which the Panther end failed to reach by inches. He was clear and headed for the goal when the ban came over his shoulder.
 Kimbrough Drop Kicks
 Another scoring chance came when the Partners had worked the ball to Auburn's 30-yard line and Marlborough dropped back to try for drop kick. Rawls made bad pass to Kimbrough, who, however, coolly picked the ball off the ground and sent a beautiful kick toward the goal that mere guess only was the best the spectators could offer in the way of a conclusion as to whether it went through the posts. However, the referee decided no goal,
 The Tigers, on another occasion, were in drop-kicking distance, and Peterson dropped back to his 25-yard line for the try. Here, however, Turner Scott came crashing through the line, blocked the kick and tackled Peterson after he had recovered the ball. Six Passes, 58 Yards
 During the first half the Tigers com pleted six passes for gains totaling 56 yards. Throughout the game the Tigers never failed to complete pass. Their bewildering aerial attack was at all times successful and the majority of their gaining was done in this manner.
 However, the Plainsmen kept ham, mering at the Panther line and with Noisy Grishman opening up they went through the right side of the Gold and Black line for gain after gain The left side of the Panther line was hold ing staunch under all attacks.

 The two outstanding runs of the day were made by Curly Black and Leon Stevenson. Stevenson took the ball on a reverse play and went around right end for 2S yards. Black made about the same distance around left and in the same quarter.
 For Auburn, Turner and Greene were the. outstanding stars while in the line Grisham stood out with Lawrence playing nice game. For the Panthers, Scott and Weeks in the fine and Black and Kimbrough played well while Griffin showed good broken field run ming on returning punts and daring generalship in calling signals
