extra point was good.
Outplayed In the first three periods,
the Demons opened up drive In the
fourth quarter that scored one touch
down after steady march down the
field and had started another drive
for the Mandan goal before second
intercepted pass ended the march on
the 20-yard line.
In that fourth period, q pass, Sors-
dahl to Davis, gained Is yards In
enemy territory. Two line plays
brought another first down and
when two more thruSts at the Lire
failed, Shafer heaved q pass into the
waiting arms of sorsdahl as he stood
over the goal line. The kick for the
extra point was short.
Stop Running Attack
With the exception Of Ferderer, the
Demons stopped the Braves running
attack practically before it got start
ed, but the sensational quarterback
punted, intercepted one pass, carried
the ball for steady gains and return
ed punts from the safety position
with alarming consistency. In the
closing minutes he halted the valiant
Demo-, charge by intercepting pass
In the shadow of the goal after Sha-
fer had put Bismarck in scoring
position with q pass to Sorsdahl that
netted 20 yards.
Shafer carried the brunt Of the
Bismarck running attack and figured
prominently in every scoring threat.
He tossed two passes to Sorsdahl, one
for q touchdown and the other for
20-yard gain and steadily reeled off
! nice gains around the Mandan ends.
In the line Whitley, Woodland and
Lips were outstanding. Although it
took Woodland the entire first half to
| get warmed up to the form he reached
In the jamestown game, he broke
through consistently in the second
half to break up Mandan running
plays.
For Mandan, Ordway and GILBERT
son shared honors with Ferderer In
the backfield while House and Rey-
nolds played stellar games in the line.

gan . march down the field after

and the attempted goal from the field
failed when the ball hit the uprights.
The Braves kept the ball in Bis
marck territory during all Of the first
period. with Ferderer's return Of
punts the principal factor in their

mon pass, scampered for the touch
