CENTRAL BEES
BATTLE TO TIE.

Coach Laurie HanSen's Ell Centre
B squad football team, composed for
the most part of Freshmen and
sophomores, opened its six game
schedule Friday afternoon on the
Ell Centre gridiron and battled I'M
perial high school varsity football
team to 90 tie.
Ell Centro received the opening
kickoff, returned the pigskin to
the 35 yard line and then uncorked
a perfect play for touchdown with
Pippin carrying the ball 65 yards
across into pay dirt. The play was
nullified, however, when Ell Centro
was penalized for offside.
The IS yard run proved to be the
only scoring thrust of the afternoon,
although the Spartan Bees showed
flashes Of power throughout the
contest.
Coach Hansen used every avail
able player and in doing SO uncov-
cred more valuable material that
will strengthen his team in future
games.
The blocking and tackling of the
Spartans Bees was unimpressive in
all but the first play and Hansen
plans stiff workouts this week in
an effort to iron out these difficult
ties.
Howard Hensley, Pippin, and Os-
walt were outstanding for the Ell
Centro eleven.
Ell Centre meets Brawley and
Calexico in two games and has one

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Oct. 25. W.P)
Unless the American Society Of
Magicians quickly forms and fields
football team. the Commodores
of Vanderbilt University are likely
to. go through their 1887 season un-
defeated and united.
The .Commodorcs turned back the
powerful Louisiana State Tigers
here ON Saturday with a touch
down play that boasted the best
features of the Indian rope trick,
witchcraft, black magic, the shell
game and sleight of hand. The play
happened squarely in front of the
eyes of more than $4,000 persons.
Yet, today, after nearly 48 hours
of thought, there wasn't a person
in Nashville who could vouch for
what happened. That is, outside
OF. the vanderbilt coaches and play
ers and they weren't talking
This scoring play which lett every
spectator as we'll as the l.. S. U.
coaches blinking in amazement,
happened when the game was
scarcely three minutes old and on
Vandy's second running play. The
ball was on the 50-yard line. The
Commodores lined up, the ball was
snapped, and what appeared to be
a wide. left end sweep got under
way. The players of both teams
began running toward the left side
line then, 10 and behold, out of
nowhere appeared Vanderbilt
tackle, one Greet Ricketson, rum
ming down the middle of the field
yards from anyone. And under his
arm was the ball.
There wasn't a L.S.U man within
20 yards of him. Ricketson just
loped the so yards for score. He
could easily have gone half a mile
without an enemy touching him.
There were $1,000 spectators and,
up until noon today, there had
been 1873 explanations, all of
them different. The only thing
that is definitely known about the
play is that it is known. to the
Vandy players not by number
but as Henry Frnka'. That is
what Quarterback Jimmy Higgins
said in the huddle just before it
was pulled. Henry Frnka is one
of Ray Morrison's assistant coach
es and it was Frnka who worked
it out 1t isn't new with Frnka
(whose name is mysterious enough
in itself) . He used it to win a
Texas high school champion for
Greenville four years ago.
There's no getting anything from
Morrison, his assistants, or the
Vanderbilt players. They are pledg-
ed to deep secrecy. Not even my
cousin Morris who plays a guard
for Vanderbilt and whom recently
made all-America, would tell me
a thing about it.
There were several scouts in the
press box and not one of them
was able to fathom the means by
which the ball was so completely
