ST. LOUIS, Nov. 2.-Feather-

took it on the jaw in the early
rounds of his non-title fight with
st. Louis Charley Riley but he
came back strong for a close To-

Both judges ruled for Saddler.
Referee Harry Kessler voted it a
draw.
Both fighters went at each other

but Riley, after getting Saddler
in trouble in the second and sixth
rounds, tired.
The 1888 fans roared with ap-

Saddler came back in the third
to take that round and the fourth
appeared to be a draw. In the
sixth Riley showed a final burst of
steam as he put Saddler back on
the ropes with series of right
hand blows.
From then on Saddler kept
Riley from getting off any solid
blows while he pounded the ST.

soon as the ball was snapped he
raced down the sidelineS, turned
around and stopped-looking ex-
pectantly for the ball. The Roose-
welt halfback rushed up to knock
down what seemed to be a sure
button hook pass. He met Tranen
going by him to make an over the
head catch on a perfectly executed
Stop-and-go play. 49 yards for a
touchdown. The run for the point
failed and Roosevelt won, 1913,
but Tranen had made his second
I'D of the day and given the Colts
chance at the tie.
That play takes GOODNESS like no
other in football. If the receiver
doesn't stop long enough, the de-
fensive halfback won't be checked
and can recover in time to block
the pass. But Tranen fooled not
only the defender, but the Specta-
tors as well and a touchdown was
the result.
st. Johns answered the queries
OF its critics by blasting Washing
ton-Lee. 900. A weak schedule
had been pointed to as one of the
main reasons the Johnnies had

the Generals were no set-up and
st. Johns had little trouble with
them.
Washington Lee overwhelmed

Episcopal a TT tie with MERGERS
burg early this season and If the
Macon Academy game
Saturday is close, Merry's talent
may be helpful again. ..
What makes Ted'S kicking even
more noteworthy is that he is
boy who shouldn't even have on
a football uniform. Merry lost
the use of one eye and had his
vision impaired in the other In an
accident before coming to Episco-
pal. Doctors ordered no bodily
contact of any kind.
But Merry is a determined boy
and he put up a goal post in his
yard and started practicing point
kicking. Finally he persuaded his
father and Coach Mclaughlin to
let him try his speciality at
Episcopal. He booted some last
year and this season is the regular
kicker. Ted will be around next
fall and Mclaughlin is looking
forward to that automatic point
for one or more years anyway.
Of course, Merry has strict
orders never to get near the ball
If there's bad pass from center.
In fact, the coach has told him
if he does, he can turn in his
uniform. That happened last
week and Ted obeyed orders and
trotted away from the poor snap.
But give him a good chance and
it's one more point for Episcopal.
Merry doesn't have to carry the
ball to be a valuable man in the
Maroons' lineup.
When Roosevelt upset Coolidge,
1918, last week the thre big stars
we're Bob Smithers, Bill Smith and
Tony Grimaldi That's good news
for Rider fans because all three
will be around next season and
Smithers has two more years.
The 215-pound Grimaldj was a
bull in the Roosevelt backfield all
day. If Coolidge could have
stopped him from making. the
short yardage and the first downs,
the Colts probably would have
won. It was Grimaldi's 1-yard
smash. after first fumbling the
ball. that gave the Rough Riders
their first touchdown.
Smith and Smithers were stars,
too. Smiths long pass gave
Roosevelt the lead it never lost
and Smithers' extra point after
Grimaldi's score was the margin
of victory.
Coach Pete Labukas will have
a good many of his boys back

of Smith, Smithers and Grima1di
