full attack on the grid of the Ninth
Infantry at Camp Bulls Saturday
afternoon. the husky warriors Of the
Twenty-Third Infantry earned hard
won victory from their ancient and
honorable foes, the Ninth, by 7-to-O
score.
No better story of the struggle can
be told than the one found in the SIM
pie presentation of the score. As
they battled on the sand-burred lots
at Bulls, the Twenty-Tbird Infantry
men were just one touchdown better
than their adversades. a kcener and
more closely contested setto could not
be staged in any field in these some
times United States. s.

the Twenty-third and the first hall
was a nip and tuck affair, both teams
driving deep into the enemy territory
but failing TO seriously threaten the
opposing goal line. The half ended

plaee-kick.
The final period was scoreless. Both
teams fought with ferocity that APP

penalties were inflicted for roughness
or unsportsmanlike playing. 1t was
clean game, vicious game, and a
bright game for the spectators.
TURNER A STAR.
For the winners, Turner was the
outstanding star. This bucko. alter
