Yellow Jackets Lose Final Game Os Season

Hartford City Scores 12-0 ' Win Tuesday The Decatur Yellow Ja-keta ena-. rd the season law night on a slightly tour note, losing to the Hartford City Airdales by a 12-0 score. Ths defeat wus the sixth of the camjmign for the Jackets, who won four. The Airdale* scored shortly ate.the start of the second quarter on a quarterback sneak, by Robbins and again on the last play In ill* third quarter when Willman si as net through .tackle and twisted and bulled his way over the goal from 19 yards out. The Hartford City second score was well earned: they had to do it j three times before it became official. The Airdales bad gotten a break when R. Langdon blocked a Jennings putt and it was recovered on the Decatur IS. Willman carried the ball to the nine (I -tie Gadberry, on an end-arouud went the distance for the touchdown, but officials called It back and penalized Hartfold Ck'y for off-side. Willman then carried the ball for another touchdown, which was again called back for the same penalty, putting the bell on the 19. It was then that Wllhnan mad'- his dash putting the Airdale* .iut in front by two touchdowns. Each team fumbled several times during the game, which stalled any concentrated attack. The only pro-1 longed drive of the game was when Hartford City made its first touchdown. Starting on the Decatur 45yard line, the Airdales marched down the field in nine plays for the touchdown The Yellow Jackets spent some time in Hartford territory, but i fumbles would spoil their scorin r chance* In the fourth quarter Delator got tha ball to the 15-yard marker, but three successive incomplete passes ended their chan es ax well as the bail game. Otner drives had taken the Yellow Jackets to the Hartford 38, 35 and 15 yard lines, but there .the drives endcd. The Airdale line charged hard and fast, making it difficult for th*' I Yellow Jacket backs to get started, or to go far past .the line of scrimmage. And that is the main reason that Hartford City had 12 points and Decatur none. The lineups: Hartford City Decatur DE—Campbell . Strickler I.T—Runyon Fruchte lAJ—Baker .. Isch (' R. Langdon J.
