St. Joe Victory Sunday As Seen By a College Correspondent.
Sunday afternoon, Oct. 15, St. Joe met and defeated the Roseland, South' Chicago football team in a hotly fought contest. The game was clean and fast throughout and does credit to the sportsmanship of both teams. The first quarter ended with the hall in St. oJe’s possession on Roseland’s 40 yard line. In the second quarter, on an end around end play, Hunt carried the ball 30 yards before he was stopped. A line plunge through center by Me-, Laughlin netted an additionaK4rye., Bruin then hit right tackle for a touchdown and followed this up by kicking goal. Score 7 to 0. The second half was a see-sawing up and down the field, neither side scoring. During the first quarter of this half a splendid tackle by Weilman pulled St. Joe out of a nasty hoel with the ball only five feet from the St. Joe goal. After that muddle, however, St. Joe carried the ball into the opponent’s territory and kept it there until the finish. Hunt at right and Weilman at right half did some particularly ex-| cellent work. Captain McLaughlin | was there as usual, especially with his line plunges. In getting out for passes, left end was rather slow, but all in all the team showed up well, for which Coach Parker is to be congratulated. The management was particularly pleased to note the loyal rooting of the R. H. S. boys and promise to see to it that the compliment is warmly returned.
