Cody Plays Valley in
Terrible Windstor,,1

Chicago is supposed to be the
Windy City," but Cody beat Val
ley 1910 Saturday in a windstorm
that would have made any Chicago
lite run for shelter.
When the Valley boys started
the game by kicking off, they had
to place the ball near the west
side line SO that it would NOT be
blown off the field They kicked
1t clear over the Cody goal line
and Cody was given the ball on
the 20-yard line. Cody was penal
lied for offside and had to punt,
but then held Valley till they had
to punt. Some nice end runs
were made by Corder. but the ad-
vantage lay with neither side at
the end of the first quarter.
Cody started the second quarter
with a completed forward pass. but
had to punt. A Valley man. caught
the punt, and as he was tackled,
triec to pass the ball to a team
mate. OF so 1t appeared. A Cody
man recovered it, and on the next
three plays, Cody made a touch
down, but failed to make the point
on a fumbled fake back pass. Val
ley seemed to have the best of it
for a while in the last of this quart
er. their little halfback being hard
to tackle. but Cody kicked off for
the second half with the score still
60. No score was made in the
third quarter though both teams
played a good game Of football.
In the last quarter. however, Cody
snapped out of it, and Jock Wyllie
caught a pass for a touchdown, and
Wilbur Scholes another. Only one
OF the points was made. but the
score was 1910. The Cody boys
put up a good fight against a team
that was much stronger than they
had expected. A fairly good crowd
present. despite the young
tornado.
