Sidney made some gains in this
quarter. Littlefeld took the ball
on a punt and racing half the
length of the field in the most
spectacular play of the game
scored another touchdown and
Vinson converted. Sidney re-
ceived the kick but made no
gains. Wolf Point was penalized
5 yards. Vinson fumbled on a
punt but Littlefeld recovered.
The aerial attack was introduced

goal when the final whistle blew.
