O'Hare Prove. Unstoppablc
Something more should be said
about that maj OIIare, stocky
fifteen year old, who, playing his
first year for Bism, rex, proved un-
stoppable Saturday. Only once
when he carried the ball, and he car
ried it often, was he stopped with
out gain and that time the Bismarck
forwards failed to open a hole and
the pile driving Demon was topped
at the line Of scrimmage.
It was Bismarck's game six min
utes after the opening kickoff,
when the Hiliners, forced to punt,
got off poor kick straight into the
waiting arms of Hank Brown, who
behind perfect interference, ran
forty yards through the bewildered
Hiliners for q touchdown. After
that is was only question Of how
many points the Demons would
score and they could have scored
several more, had they taken full
advantage of their opportunities.
Twice in the first quarter they
were squarely in front of the Val
ley City goal and had the ball on
the five yard line, where q desper-
ate Valley defense halted three
slabs into the line. Each time q
field goal could have been kicked on
the fourth try but both chances
were thrown away. Twice more in
the fourth quarter, the too eager
Demons fumbled almost on the goal
line, and the Hiliners kicked out to
the 80 yard line and were given an
other breathing spell.
Line Advances Savagely
Bismarck's return to the attack
after the second march down the
field in the fourth quarter was not
to be denied, however, and q savage
line swept the Valley forwards
aside and O'Hare came plunging
through for the second touchdown.
Adam Brown kicked goal for the
seventh point.
Valley City fought desperately t.
break through and score, sending
their star ball carrier, Metcalf, into
the line and around end, or hurting
FORWARD passes into every section Of
the field. Only once were they able
to get away for q substantial gair
and that time, circling the Bismarck
end behind fine interference, thei,
ball carrier looked good to get away
until he was brought down from be.
hind by Slattery, Demon left tackle
The net result Of the Hiliners' eff.
forts at ground gaining was q los!
of yardage for when they had the
ball the runner was often tackled
far behind the line of scrimmage
and Only we'll directed kicks en-
abled them to keep from beinl
pushed over their own goal line.
The blue clad warriors from Val
ley City deserve q lot of credit fo
the stand they made. Although
physically incapable Of Withstand
ing the bruising, crushing attack O
the Bismarck machine, they wer'
game to the last whistle. Time ant
again Valley men had tv be lifted
to their feet afr a vicious tackl,
had brought the down, and tire,
Hiiiners were battered into nea
helplessness and assisted from tn
field. Still the Blue team Tough
on and they fought well. Taking
Bis narck's physical superiority in
to consideration the Hiliners dit
well to hold the Demons to tw,
touchdowns.
Metcalf Is Hiline star
Valley had their stars as we'll Al
the victors and the two that shon'
the brightest were Metcalf, half
back, and Ornaas, left tackle. Orn
aas, particularly, was q tower O
strength in the weakening Vale,
line. Singlehanded he stopped many
Demon rushes. Had Metcalf beef
accorded proper interference. an,
with q stronger lire in front Of him
he would undoubtedly have done I,
marathon over the gridiron. Onl.
the fact that the Bismarck forward
continually broke through to nail hin
behind the line Of scrimmage, or tn
Bismarck backfield, working as
unit, completely smothered his in
