uuent on both sides but the fans
who huddled in blankets and sang
''if the kids can play, we can stay
saw Glencoe battle for every
point.
Without Discher in the back
field. due to injuries, Redwood
lacked the offensive power for a
sustained drive and Glencoe was
able to beat down the attack on
the few occasions when breaks
gave the Reds chances in scoring
territory. DefensiVely except for
frequent penalties the team was
stronger than might have been
expected against the poWerhouse
Glencoe backfield which has run
wild against previous opponents.
The ends particularly on the Red
wood team played their best game
Of the season.
The play was even throughout
the first half with both sides MAX
ing good gains both on ru.- ming
and pass plays. Redwood kicked
off and Glencoe took the ball on
the 20 yard line after it had cross
ed the goal. An offside penalty
helped them move up to the 35
before they booted out of bounds
on RedWood'S 80. LusseLhop made
first down in two plays but
Johanneck funbled and Hunting
ton recovered for Glencoe in mid
field.
Steele prevented Marsh from
getting off pass for short loss
and they punted out of bounds on
the 80. Smith went in for Steele
who suffered a nose injury on the
play.
Redwood was forced to punt
and Glencoe began a short march
which brought them to midfield
before Johanneck intercepted
pass. Dwyer received a pass
which was good for Is yards but
Glencoe smothersd all line plays
and Bollum punted out of bounds
on the Is.
Redwood was offside to help
make a first down for Glencoe
and a few plays later, lost the
best break of the game when a
bad Glencoe tumble was recover
ed on the goal line. Short drives
at the line gave them another
first down as the quarter ended.
Glencoe funbled twice as the
period ope-ed but hawked the
ball well once it was on the
ground. A long pass to Curran
was good for 20 and after lateral
on which Huntington crossed the
goal was called back, he took an
other for II yards. Marsh broke
through for ten yards but FUN
bled and Redwood retrieved Only
one and one-half yards from the
goal. Bollum, attempting to kick,
was tackled behind the line for
Glencoe's first two points.
Redwood Falls put the ball in
play again with a free kick from
the 20 which Curran brought
back to the 80. They had counted
a first down when Redwood in
tercepted a pass deep in its terri
tory on fourth down. Lauterbach
and Lussenhop made first down
and Quesenberry picked up an
other four but Redwood was for
ced to kick, the ball going out on
their A.
After two passes had missed by
inches, Redwood blocked Gler-
GOES kick and recovered on the
%. They were unable to gain,
however and lost the ball on
downs as the half ended.
The snow began to fall more
heavily between the halves. Gler--
coe received the kickoff and sew
eral puntS were exchanged before
huntington Intercepted d heu-
wood pass and dashed down the
sidelines for so yards and
touchdown. They carried over for
the odd point. A second later the
tally was raised to II and 0 when
Glencoe kicked over the Redwood
goal and an attempt to carry the
ball out was stopped, scoring a
safety.
Glencoe took the free kick back
to the 40 and slashed through the
battling line for a series of first
downs and another touchdown.
They failed to make the point.
Punts were exchanged fire.

while Coach Tom sent in a whole
team of green material for
taste of football in the worst of
weather. Late in the quarter

run before he was brought down
on the one yard line Huntington
plunged over and the try for point
failed as the game ended.
