Cards Fight Hard
The lighter Harrington boys put
up a gallant stand in the first three
quarters but we're worn out IN the
last stanza when the Scorpions
penetrated their pay-off parallel
four times. Although the Scorps
had little rouble in rolling up
first downs in the opening quar-
ter, they were held to one touch
down. The opening drive down the
field was halted when Harrington

yard stripe.
The drive was begun over with
Pipkin, Lesser and Cabler alternat-
ing at carrying the oval. Cabler

the line to carry the ball eight
yards to the one-yard line. Lesser
fumbled on the next play but Pip
kin recovered and went over with

verified, making the score 1870 just
before the half ended.

While they gained consistently, the
second string lineup was unable
to ring up a tally against the fight
ing Cardinals. Near the end OF the
quarter. Brownsville was penalized

Own Hoard line. On the next play
Mere was a smear-up and Buttons

line for safety, giving Harrington
her two points.
