They came right back and after a series of smashes and end runs "Clink" Nelson carried the oval over for the first score to be made by the technical school.

Another feature was the place-kick by "Bob" Scherer from the 3S-yard line and which was placed perfectly between the uprights. The entire Tech team played good football, consequently there were no outstanding stars. Time and again their line would break through and throw the Wentworth backs for bier losses. On offense th'V v-e- fli a' s on th job an a'-

ways took their men out opening up huge holes In the opposing Nline.
