The laek of a good passing attaek made way for running plays aid- ed by good bloeking. A surprising seor- ing puneh was shown by the 'tQ2llllg onee within the twenty, they were hardly ever stopped. Most of the points seored against Ames were made in the last half due to tl1e weakening of the line. Page 22 Strong '42 Squad One of the most thrilling plays of the year was executed by little Bob Graham, who stole tl1e ball from a mass of Colo players and raeed 65 yards for a, touchdown. A few of the outstanding players for next year in various departments are: pass defense-Floyd Bender, blor-lier-- Paul Vanee, pass reeeiver-K. ll.

Squad Wins Four, Loses -I-Wo, -lies Une AMES 7 DOWLING 0 N a game which showed breaks for each team and unusually rough play, the Little Cyclones opened their season on the local field. Ames scored midway in tl1e second quarter on two passes, and tl1e pass for the point was good. Dow- ling drove goalward in the final minutes of play and when the gun sounded they were on the Ames half yard stripe. Ames showed a varied offense and the line looked good for the initial game. AMES 8 NoRTH 6 By virtue of superior blocking and alert pass defense, tl1e Little Cyclones came through with a win over the heavier Des Moines eleven. O'Neil blocked a North punt in the first quarter, and North recovered in their end zone for a safety. Later in the initial period, North scored from the Ames two yard line. In the third quarter, Byrnes counted from tl1e North thirteen for tl1e winning touchdown. AMES 33 MAnsHALL'rowN 12 The Ames Eleven took vengeance on Marshalltown for tl1e 14 to 13 defeat they took last season. Ames ran through the Bobcats for many long gains, with Anderson scoring three times, Byrnes once and iVoodward once. OSKALOOSA 34 AATIES 12 Ames suffered its worst defeat in many years at the hands of powerful Oskaloosa. The Osky line opened wide holes in the Ames forward wall and the backs had little trouble gaining yard- age. Ames' attack got going smoothly only duri11g tl1e third period when they pushed over two counters. Anderson, Martin and Woodward were injured in the first half, and saw no action during the final period. AMES 6, PERRY 6 The Little Cyclones and Perry fought to a standstill in a game which showed Strong line play and two sensational touchdowns. Ames counted in the ini- tial periods on a pass, Bates to VVood- ward. Bates missed tl1e kick for the poi11t. Perry scored from tl1e Ames'47. The plunge for the extra point was smeared. GRINNELL 7 AAIES 0 A driving Grinnell offense combined with the injury of several Ames regu- lars spelled defeat for tl1e Little Cy- clones. The Little Pioneers scored in the third quarter after recovering a bad pass from center on the Ames 15. Ames clicked in the final quarter on a series of passes, but an interception stopped the threat deep in Grinnell territory. Hart- man, Anderson and Shugart were hurt and their steady play was missed. ALIES 7 BOONE 6 Showing plenty of fight and determi- nation, the Ames squad ended their 1940 season with a hard fought victory. Ames scored in the first period on a pass, Bates to Wcizidwarcl, and Bates kicked tl1e point which proved to be the margin of victory. The Ames eleven held off the powerful Boone line until tl1e final period when the Toreadors Scored from the Ames 4. The plunge for a point was stopped. Page 21
