St. Mary's Erratic in At
tack-Soldier Stars
Many.

There was hard. rough football in
the Fort Sam Houston Stadium Sat
urday afternoon. and the high-speed
Second Division team, being some
what harder and rougher than the st.
Mary's College Rattlers, who are no
milksops themselves. came out on top.
The score was 2S TO o.
The play was the kind usually de
scribed as gruelling. And, for three
periods, it was interesting. The last
quarter degeneratcd into three passes
and a punt on both sides.
The soldiers outplayed the collegians
throughout, the heavier line, bolstercd
by an All-American. Lieutenant Far

ing large holes in the desperate Rather
defense, despite valiant efforts by
Center Thomas, Tackles Carver and

BACKS KEPT BUSY
The Rather backs frequently had
to make the tackles, Jordt especially
on the defense in this respect.
Even at that, had the army had
but running plays, the score
would have been smaller. but Quar-
terback Heffner mixed EN- up nicely,
uncovered some sure-fire passing and
produced the first two touchdOwnS via
the ozone.

good for several noble running gains,
besides. throwing passes accurately
and distantly and playing n bangup
defensive game. Turner plowed the
line effectively and Heffner threw
and received passes and batted down
the enemy aerialS with abandon. The
soldiers, in other words, displayed
their class.

KILLS LONG Run.
An offside penalty nullified re-
markable 42-yard run by Doshinko
for what would have been IA touch
down otherwise.

good for short gains through the
army line. Jordt also received passes

luently just squeezing over first
down on the fourth play. and, while.
lueerly enough. they registered II
first downs to the soldiers II, this
didn't mean anything in the scoring
way.
The army was penalized almost the
distance between the goals for UNI
necessary roughness, use of hands, Off
sides, etc, etc, which cut materially
into its scoring chances, as well as
it's first down total.
While the game was rough. there
was only one however, incident that
got the cranberry" from the stands
under the head of dirty playing,
and this, no doubt, was an uninten-
tional occurrence. Mutt" Gee, who
was All-Southcrn end with Clemson
College and who has just joined the
Division squad, was so eager TO stop
Buster" Carver. the Rather captain.
from breaking through on a play in
the fourth quarter, that he cut him
out before the ball was snapped and
in doing so badly injured Carver. Not
another soul on either team moved
as Gee whirled and, bringing n foot
up. kicked Carver squarely in the
solar plexus. Carver had to be car
ried from the field. Gee was ordered
from the game by the referee and
the Division penalized half the dis
lance TO the goal.
FIRST SCORE EARLY.
The Division demonstrated its
punch and Heffner his ability as a
quarterback in taking the oval from
kickoff to start the game right across
for the opening touchdown. A first
down was made in four line plays,
Deshinko got around the Rather left
end for 20 more behind good interfer-
ence, Bowercok and Doshinko made
eight between them. Thomas stopped
Turner and then Bowercok whirled
a pass 50 yards to Graham for the
