plays. He remained on his feet
after being hit by two and
sometimes three Roundup tack
lers. Sturzenegger showed con-
siderable speed, especially on
plays around end. Kunau, also
picked up ground, but had few
er ball-carrying opportunities
than the two half backs, being
assigned mostly to the block
ing back spot. Saunders proved
an able field general and did
the passing for the local eleven.
The local line looked good
against the Panthers , who
found it almost impossible to
gain ground, excepting via the
aerial route. Most of the
Roundup pass plays were brok-
en- up, however
Davis, local tackle, incurred a
broken wrist in the first quart
er, and was replaced by Perk-
ms. Only other Hardin casual
ty was Sam Ragland, who was
forced to retire from the game
in the final period with a
charley horse" in both legs.
Davis will be out for the rest
of the season, but Ragland
should be ready for action
against Worden here this FRI
day.
The Roundup defeat was
Hardin's fourth successive win
of the season. The Bulldogs
goal line has been crossed only
once, by the Livingston second
Stringers.
The starting lineup for Har-
din included DeVore and Gross
man, ends; Davis and Sawyer,
tackles; Hamlin and Hammer,

nau, fullback.
