CRASH WAY TO TWIN BILL WIN

HIGH SCHOOL AND INDEPENDENT ELEVENS AERIAL ROUTE TO DOUBLE KILLING. I " Football hungry fans were fed up 'on the great fall pastime in large juicy chunks Saturday and Sunday at Riverside park when the highly touted Blue and White invaders of Logansport were bowled over in a hectic fray by the Maroon and Black of Rensselaer high school Saturday, and Captain Nowels’ men served knockout drops to the husky Hoopeston, Hl., independent eleven Sunday. The high school thriller went to the. locals by a 20 to 6 count after Logansport had attained a 6 to 0 lead which they held until the close of the first half. The Independents administered a 10 to 0 sleeping potion to the Sucker dub in a game featured by the work of Se linemen of both teams, Rensseer’s scores resulting from a long farward pass which Moore tossed to P. Collijp at the beginning of the third quarter, the latter carrying it over' the Hoopeston goal line for the first 1920 marker, and Captain Nowels’ place kick a few minutes later which added three points' to the Rensselaer total and closed the scoring for the day. Both games were snug affairs and in each instance the victors were forced to the open attack route to gain the verdict. Both games were characterized by a brilliant aggressiveness' on the part of the home elevens and a stubborn resistance on the part of the Invaders. Only the old time fight and football instinct kept the 1920' Rensselaer slate untarnished, for the merest slip in either game might have resulted disastrously for the Red and Black pets who found in their teams opponents worthy of utmost consideration. Neither Logansport nor Hoopeston were defeated without a battle and in eliminating th two clubs Rensselaer achieved notable victories.

RenM«la«r, 20; Logansport, 6. In the elimination —of Coach Stonebraker’s Logansport crew Coach Leighly’s Rensselaer high school team disposed of the most dangerous rival on this season’s chart and took a long stride toward the Indiana high school title and thereby established themselves as one of the greatest collections of gridiron representatives ever turned out by the local school. The Cass county aggregation moved on Rensselaer certain of victory and heralded as the coming champions. They were .buoyant, confident and cocksure of victory, and for a' time it appeared as if their confidence and aggressiveness were to carry them through and that the Red and Black was to be trampled in the dust by a team that outweighed them fully fifteen pounds to a man. Gloom settled over the followers of -the locals when the visitors registered a touchdown ip the opening period by virtue of a forward pass which a visting end pulled down and with the ball tucked beneath his arm, scampered through the straggling Rensselaer players for the first score of the day. Rensselaer played through the remainder of the first half apparently a beaten team, the Logansport touchdown looming ever arger with the passing of time, the lalf dosing with Logansport leading 6 to 0. During the intermission the Rensselaer players seemed to suddenly become imbued with a winning spirit and returned to the field at the start of the second half a far different team from the one which battled half-heartedly throughout the opening session. The fireworks started shortly after the whistie blew and in three minutes, through a combination of passes and brilliant dashes on the part of Larsh, Harmon and Collins, the ball was placed behind the Logansport goal line for the tieing score. Larsh

failed at goal. Encouraged .by the success of their open field attack the Rensselaer team suddenly became a collection of fighting demons and within a few moments the visitors were] a demoralised, beaten aggregation. The Rensselaer linemen rocked their big, husky opponents ,to sleep and had them blubbering for relief: Lambert, at tackle, was everywhere Stonebraker was boreed to inject new blood in his liner in a vain endeavor iSfidd *hS mon and Collins tore great, large holes in the line, whileLarshand Thompson skirtedthe victory Wright and TMaSx/wlAwr ansi aauin nrillOn nrtWTl i> am—meTiT £

TWO GOOD GAMES -

of football were staged at Riverside park the last of last week. The nigh school clearly demonstrated their championship caliber by a decisive win over the well-coached Logansport team. Working Hike an eleven-jeweled watch it was hard to pick any individual stars. Logansport’s attack was torn to tatters and their defense had a back-bone like a banana’s.* ' , They had some “crazy” formations and “simple” signals. But you wouldn’t expect a “well balanced” outfit from that town. Sunday was a big day for the independent team. Good weather, good good game, good gracious yes, J did see you on the side lines. Well what did yqu think of those passes, and Nowels’ place kick and Putts’ drop hick and the way the crowd kept back and everything? \ The referee wouldn t change his decision that the best looking machine out there was the Franklin car . „ Peter played the whole game through. What shall we do with the body? • THOMPSON & KIRK.
