Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-10-24

Immediately upon being tackled.
In the final quarter, Douglas also
resorted to the aerial route and COM
pleted several passes for good yard
age, Mcclure taking the ball from
Causey. With less than five minutes
to play, Mcguire intercepted Tucson
pass and ran Is yards before being
downed, and Miller returned punt 25
yards that put the Bulldogs in scor-
ing position. After using three plays,
Nemeck, who had been warbling the
numerals all afternoon, called McKin-
non to drop back and make a kick.
McKinnon's educated toe that has
placed the ball between the posts for
extra points on former occasions, did
not fail, and the ball went sailing
squarely between the goal posts for
three additional points, two minutes
before the final gun sounded. Score:
Douglas Is; Tucson g. The game ended
with Douglas in possession of the ball
on their own 43-yard line.
1t would be hard to name any par
ticular stars for Douglas, as the entire
eleven fought to the man and not once
did a player faIi~to nail his man. The
backfield was able to make gains and
passes because a strong line functioned
in front Of them Only one substitu-
ton was made on the Douglas team,
Cary relieving Flores late in the first
quarter
!, Coach Van AntWferp and Coach War
rem are pleased with the showing of
the team and predict that they have
Inow struck their stride and will con-
tinue to win the rest Of the games on
the schedule. The team deserved to
win on their playing, as they eyercame
several severe penalties early inethe
game and held the flying" Daniels
almost powerless.
| Daniels, the flashy colored halfback
on the Tucson team; proved a good
yardage gamer, along with Caid, his
i running mate, but it was not sufficient
to offset the terrific pace set by eau
sey, Miller, Mcguire and Nemeck. Like
the four horsemen of Notre Dame, they
came laundering down the field and
aided by McKinnon's trusty toe, piled
up enough points to win handily.
: Not since 1922 has Douglas team
defeated Tucson, so the victory is con.
sidered more important than any Other
on the schedule The Badgers were {
.strong. aggregation and only by a more
powerful attack were the Bulldogs able
to stem the tide and turn them back OF
the shot end of the score.
i WhoIe-hearte effort on the part O.
every player was needed, but Van Ant
Werps men came through in the pinch
