CRISPUS ATTUCKS HIGH “TIGERS" IN 6-6 DEADLOCK IN INITIAL FOOTDALL CLASH WITH ALUMNI 1933 Team Shows Much Power Deception, and Speed Against Alumni Huskies; Watford To Groom Squad For Gary Tilt Next Saturday
(By LEE A. JOHNSON)
PERRY STADIUM, October 7*—The Crispus Attacks high school “Tigers” ended the three year winning streak of their Alumni by holding them to a 6-6 tie in the opening game of the season here at Perry Stadium last Saturday— before a large crowd of football fans. The Watford coached machine showed signs of brilliancy in their sparkling fake plays that featured their fleety backs who operated behind a well coached line. In playing the Alumni, the “Tigers” have shown immense power and speed to cope with the weight arid experi-
ence which they had to buck
against in the Alumni, ex-collegians, ex-amateur stars who saw action In the game. ••“Throughout the game. Attacks kept the ball in the Alumni territory and mid-fleld most of the time, with Woods, White, and Rocco carrying the ball, gained many yards from scrimmage. The “Tigers” were the first to score when they punted to Barnes, a substitute back in the Alumni lineup, who was tackled hard and fumbled the ball; four “Tigers” tacklers swarmed on the ball to place It on the 11 yard line. Woods made two thrusts at the line and pushed over the touchdown, and when the team lined up for the extra point, White missed the kick. On a short pass, Talbott to L. Floyd, the Alumni scored on Floyd’s thirty-five yard trek as he shook off a number of would he tacklers to march to the goal line where he was tackled, about a yard over. Talbott attempted to pass for the extra point, but It- was knocked
down.
Late in the fourth quarter of the gaftie. White shook off several Alumni players to make a threatirtng forty yard run to the Alumni twenty-three yard line. The “Graduates” held for downs, and the game ended with the ball at the Alumni forty yard line in the pocession of the Alumni. Martin, Knox, Smith, Hardin, Turner, Diggs, T. Floyd, Sims, Warren, and several others showed upi well for the new coach, Alonzo Watford, and will be a hard bunch of young huskies to stop by a high school team. For the Alumni, L. Floyd, M Brown, Froman, Talbott, P. Johnson, Coleman, Sansbury, and Cornett showed up while they were in the fray. John Street, coach of the Alumni team substituted freely in the last half of the game in an effort to find a winning combination to put the game on ice for his charges. Gary Next Foe Roosevelt high, Gary, will be the host to the “Tigers” next Saturday when the “Watfordmen” will try their stuff on the “Lake County Panthers”. ^The Panthers lost their first game to a white team up in Spring Valley, 111., and are determined to stop the "Capitol City Tigers” when they come up there October 14th. A large crowd of Attucks follow-
ers are expected to make the trip to Gary in order to cheer the Green and Gold warriors to victory in their first competition against a
high school team.

(Sports Writer)
GARY, Ind., Oct. 12.—Wendell Phillips’ dream of an unchallenged colored Midwestern prep title, with one of the finest moleskin aggregation in its history, was shattered last Saturday afternoon, broken by' a relentless, resolute and a hard driving Roosevelt eleven whose thrilling drives, through land and air, carried them over the final stripe once in each quarter for a
25 to 15 victory.
Byrd ©cores 2 Touchdowns The initial period had not aged sixty seconds before Wilbur “Stretch” Byrd, Panther wingman, grabbed a 28 yard pass from C. J. Harris and raced 44 yards to Phillips’ goal for the initial marker. This lanky wingman, playing his first year as a Panther, came back late in the third stanza to intercept a Phillip pass, Foshet to Campbell, and raced 30 yard for his final contribution of his 12 points to the Panthers’ total. Next to Byrd in the hero ratings was the hard driving and hefty Phillip’s quarter, Foshee, who never gave up and finally filled his mates with the inspiration that led them to a great last quarter rally. Foshee almost singlehanded scored all of Phillip’s power gains and was the prime factor in its aerial attack, with well place forwards passes placing the Windy City eleven in scoring positions

Coach Kean’s spinners, reverses, ant| offtackle slants were effectively hottied by the Black and Gold defense. On the offensive, West Virginia used a five man interference on out-back-end runs to great effect. There were also well-timed passes over the center of the line. The see-saw battle kept up till the final quarter-hour. In this last quarter the sustained cheering of the “Tueky” fans braced up to the squad for the drive to victory. Kenuteky Stale now has one great hurdle out of the path for Wiley and the National Championship. October 14 the “Green Wave” of Wilherforce rolls down to challenge the Kentuckians.
