LOSE
To BRAWLEY
Local Jaycees Again Find
Northend Eleven Too Tough
And Drop Game 1877

Inability to stop the plunging,
and twisting runs Of the BraWley
, backfield men cost the Arabs
football game last night on the
local gridiron when they succump-
ed to the onslaught of the visi-
tors in a game which was marked
at times by very good football. The
final count was 1877 in favor of
the Brawleyites.
The Arabs received the opening
kickoff and took the ball on their
own 38 yard stripe. 1t Immediate
ly became apparent that little was
to be gained by attempting to
pierce the stubborn Brawley front
wall and Elliott got off one of his
excellent punts to the Brawley 13
yard line. After two line plays,
which netted little the visitors
punted and the Arabs returned it
to the Brawley 40. On the first
play Brawley intercepted lateral
pass and after lining up Imma-
mura broke through the entire
Arab team and raced to the goal
line for the first score. The at
tempt at conversion failed. Score:
Brawley 6, Arabs 0.
The Arabs again received and
after an exchange of punts the Wis
itors were stopped cold on the
Arab l yard line after four futile
efforts to score. A bad punt gave
them the ball again on the Arab
25 yard line and Thrasher tore off
20 yards before being downed
This again brought the pigskin
within the shadows of the goal
posts and the Arabs valiantly beat
back the opposition once more. On
fourth down the Brawleyites essay
ed a pass which was intercepted by
Elliott behind his own goal and
he brought it out to his 10 yard
line. Here he punted to the As. I'm
mamura grabbed the ball at that
point and again lodged and wrig-
gled through the Arab forces for
the second counter. The conver-
sion was wide and the score stood:
Brawley II, Arabs o.
In the second period the Arabs
showed a complete reversal of form.
Taking the ball on their own 30
yard line, Weiss and Elliott start
ed march down the field aided
by we'll executed passes with Buck
lin on the receiving end. One such
pass put the ball on the BraWley
25 and another to Bucklin was
snagged while on the dead run and
toted over for the lone Arab score.
The conversion was good and the
Arabs were in the game with a
vengeance. Score: Brawley, IL;
Arabs 7.
! Get Final Score
The third quarter saw the visit
ors ring up their final score. The
Arabs put up a stubborn defence,
holding the visitors for downs on
the Arab 8-yard stripe. In this SER
les of plays the visitors tried four
times to get through to score, but
each time the line held and the
ball was put right back on the
yard line. Then when the Arabs at
tempted to punt out of danger the
kick was blocked and Brawley re-
covered on the s yard line and the
onslaught started again. This time
they were not to be denied and
the bal was carried over for the
final count. Conversion was good
by a quarterback sneak through
the line. Score: Brawley 10, Arabs,
7.
The remainder of the game saw
an interchange of punts with nei-
ther team offering any serious
scoring threat the game ending
with Brawley in possession of the
ball near midfield.
Elliott and Thrasher dominated
ing. Time after time the latter put
the Arabs in danger when his kicks
went outside within the Arab 10
yard line. while Elliott's long twist
ers set the visitors back into their
own territory, this advantage being
lost, however by the inability of the
Arab tacklerS to stop the returns
before many yards had been made
up.
For the Arabs, Elliott, Bucklin
and Weiss were conspicuous by
their ball carrying and work in the
forward pass department. Adams,
Rex, Drennen. Charles and Byrd
stood out in the Arab defense.
The Arabs attempted 18 forward
passes, 10 of which were incom-
plete, 7 completed and one inter
cepted by Brawley. The visitors
took to the air l3 times, with but
one pass completed, the other II
going sour. Brawley drew eight
penalties for a total of 60 yards
while the Arabs were nicked five
times for 35 yards.
