(By Coach Boe)

1890 w. 49, Soo
with practically a new and untriet
team. Of the 1927, Beyers a
guard, White a guard; Luck sub
half back, and Herman, end re
manned. Herman was unable tt
play because of injuries. His los
was severely felt as he would un
doubtedly have been one of the
best wingmen in the district this
year. 1t was necessary to switch
Beyers from his old berth al
guard to fill the certain position
Pipal was shifted out to tackle.
The first game of the season
with Williston, proved disastrous
The Wolves were defeated by the
top heavy score of $50, but gain.
ed a great deal in knowledge OF
football. They were able to hold
Williston %scoreless the last quar-
ter of this game and even forced
them to punt out from behind
their W goal line nee.
The next week Glasgow was
compelled to play in her OWL half
of the field and though outplayed
two to one in yards gained manag-
ed to keep the Wolves from the
goal line. The game ended 90.
Glendive came next. Glendive's
heavy team was too much for the
Wolves. Wolf Point was defeated
26-0. The excellent defensive
work of the line kept the score
from growing. Once in the last
half Glendive was held for 4
downs with one foot to go for a
touchdown. Glendive's passing
ability won the game for them.
Scobey was played the next
week. Scobey took advantage of
a Wolf Point tumble to score with
in the first few minutes of play
but thereafter the Wolves had
everything their own way and
scored 4 touchdowns during the
remainder of the game. Scobey
failed to again come within 80 yd.
of the Wolf Point goal after the
first score.
Miles City, which team will play
at Butte on Thanksgiving day for
the State Championship, was next
Miles City rolled up a consider
able score the first half. The
Wolves were unable to stop their
drives off tackles and the half
ended 26-O. A defense for their
play was devised between halves
and thereafter they scored but
one touchdown, which resulted
from a pass, while the Wolves
were scoring s points from n
touchdown and a safety, thus out
scoring them the last half.
Poplar was next in line for 2
games, the first of which was a
24-0 victory, and the last 200 for
the Wolves. Poplar had a good
defensive team and contested
every foot of gain, but were I'M
able to make any head way at all
in carrying the ball. The Wolves
played in both of these games I'M
der a handicap of injuries received
in the Miles City fray. Clark be-
ing able to play but n quarter
while both Luck and Beyers were
slowed up by sprained ankles.
The final game, with Scobey at
Scobey, was arranged after the
season had officially closed. The
team was still in far from the best
condition and lacked the offensive
drive they had shown earlier in
The season., against Scobey. Their
defensive play was good and bar
ring an accident the game would
have ended 90.
OF the fifteen who earned let
in football this year five will
be lost by graduation. They are
tackle, one of the best de-
fensive players in the line; Bey-
ars, center, a stone wall on the de-
tense and one who out-played his
opponent in every game; White,
guard, captain of the team-but
gains were made over his po-
sition by the opposing team and
ne was invaluable in the offensive,
oaing one of the best blockers in
he interference; Shipman, quar-
.erback, a good tackler and a
ready player; Geisen, sub-end,
who showed he could take care of
lis position in games in which he ]
vas sadly outweighed. ]
