|ELY JUNIORS BEAT
MOUNTAIN IRON
TOUCHDOWN BY TOUTLOFF IN
LAST TWENTY SECONDS OF
PLAY GIVES ELY A SIX TO
NOTHING TRIUMPH.
(By Arnold Anderson.l

After thrice being held when with
i'm the shadows of the Mountain iron
goal posts, Ely finally gained pos
session of the ball on the opposition
twenty yard line and Touthloff, the
fleet Ely half, tore around the end
in Red Grange style to score the win
ming six points.
Toutloff was Ely's big gun in the
backfeld, the speedy half hitting the
line and circling the ends for large
gains which kept Mountain Iron on
the defense. Toutloff showed real
football talent in this game and will
go big with the high school next
season.
Both good and poor footbell was
played during the first half while
much fumbling and muddling of sig
mails was also in evidence. Ely held
decided advantage over Mountain
Iron on both the defensive and often
sive during the first half. Near the
end of the half, Ely reached the
yard line and had two minutes to put
it over but the eleven Ely quater
backs couldn't agree on the signals
and the time was wasted.
Late in the fourth period, Ely
again threatened the Mountain Iron
goal when Touthloff took the ball on
an end run. After evading all the
tacklers he had the hard luck to step
on loose shoe string and fall. Two
plays after this however, he again
took the ball and made his spectac-
|ular run for touchdown.
Nicholas, Ely quarter, returned
| a punt 80 yards in the second quart
er for the longest gain of the game.
The Ely lineup was composed of Ger
zin, Smrekar, Banovetz. Anderson
j. Smrekar, Saari, Zgonc, Nicholas
Gouze, Hill and Toutloff.

Chisholm has a powerful back in
Solvey, who is considered the best

Solvey has rival however in Dahl
