test of the campaign for the Car

a brilliant 6O-yard run by Buster Sheary
from the opening kickoff and clever
forward pass good for 25 wards from
Johnny oliver to this same Sheary
couple of plays later.
Toward the end OF the nrst quarter
the Blue and White gr1dders from
Lancaster, Pa, began an energetic
bombardment of the home eleven's line
which they maintained with abandon
during the second and third quarters
that netted three touchdowns and a
field goal. They threatened to score
on several other occasions. In the final
period the Cardinals contriyed to check
the rampaging foe, though doubtless it
was because they were becoming tired
of ranging up and down the field that
the visitors lost much of their zip.
The invaders gained most of their
ground through line forays, though they
executed several passes.
Sheary's Run Thrills.
C. u. rooters got a great kick out of
that dazzling 60-yard dash by Sheary
from the opening kick-on by Britton
Clutching the oval Sheary swept in and
out through flock of would-be tacklers
before he was finally brought down.
It was easily the most throbbing in
cident of game that was sadly lack
ing in drama, unless rough play that
cropped out late in the game gave some
q thrill.

In the waning moments Of the first
quarter the visitors got their steam
roller attack functioning and with
Saltzman and Britton blazing the way
drove to the Cardinal 15-yard line be-
fore they were finally halted when a
forward pass failed. But the Lancaster
collegians we're not to be denied and
in few moments with Saltzman do
ing most of the ball-toting came pound
ing back toward the Cardinal goal, reel
ing off four first downs to batter their
way to the home teams 13-yard line
as the first quarter ended.
Starting the second quarter G. u.
braced desperately and held the in
vaders for downs. However, after Frank
Donaher had booted the Cards out Of
temporary. danger F.. and M. loosed a
vicious drive that carried straight to
its first touchdown. With SaltZman
and Britton slamming the G. U. line
for gain after gain the visitors finally
reached the 2-yard mark and then

caster boys went right after another
touchdown and with the whole back
field taking hand promptly crashed

mans place-kick for the extra point
was accurate. Shortly before the first
half whistle Britton booted the ball over
from the 34-yard line for a field goal.

and White chalked up its final touch
down. Opening a good-looking passing
attack Quarterback Glenn Horst tipped

another, lateral shot, which was
grabbed by Eman, who crossed the

for the added point went awry.

In the fourth period things became
rough. Hugh Flynn, tackle, was in

had to be carried from the field. Both
teams received penalties during the next
few minutes

passing and running; Johnny Lyons,
who played stoutly at end Capt George
Menke, guard, and Sheary were most
consistent for c. U.
