This game being the lid-opener of both the Bob Cats ' and the .Mountaineers ' football season. It was the twenty-second annual clash of the two elevens. Wesleyan looked like a dangerous foe as the game opened. Captain Miller received the kick-off and ran -H yards to the Mountaineers ' 42-yard line. Alter making a first down, the Methodists fumbled and Bartrug recovered for West Vir- ginia. After this sensational opening, both teams fought on even terms until the second quarter when West Virginia advanced the ball to Wesleyan ' s three-yard line. The Mountaineers attempted a pass which was batted down bv a Wesleyan back. Rodriguez forced to kick from behind his own goal, got ott a good punt to Larue who was downed on the 42-yard line. Bartrug vent off left tackle for the first touchdown of the game after a smashing line attack. Score at end of first hall-West Virginia 7; Wesleyan t . During the second half. Wesleyan ripped off gain after gain only to lose the ball by a tumble. The inexperienced Bob Cat line was shattered from stem to stern by the line attacks of the Stale school ' s backs. The Wesleyan hacks, bearing the brunt of the fray on defense, were finally pushed aside and Bartrug went over lor another marker. The game from this point on settled down to a punting duel with Rodriguez getting the better of the argument. West Vir- ginia advanced the hall to Wesleyan ' s 20-yard line during the last few minutes and scored a field goal by a placement kick. The final score was: Wesleyan t : West Virginia 16. I he opening battle of the season showed that Wesleyan had much to do in the experiencing of her line, if she was to have a successful season. The line dug down in the dirt and fought a very game fight, but the lack of experience v. as very noticeable. Wesleyan ' s backfield, dubbed one of the best set of backs in the country was not able to gain a great ileal of ground without the line supporting them. This opening fray did much to strengthen the lighting ahilitv of the whole team One hundred M®w l@wk lnnk®ir§% The Wesleyan Bub Cats trotted out upon the Polo Grounds in New York City before .1 crowd of thirty thous- and, prepared to give the Violets the scare of their lives .Much had been said about the weak Wesleyan line, and the spectators were expecting to see Wesleyan ' s line fall before the heavy Violet backs. They were greeted with a surprise from the very firsl play of the game. Wesleyan received the kick-off and Rodriguez returned it to his own 25-yard line. An exchange of punts was car- ried out and Wesleyan got the ball on its own 21-yard line. Battles turned N Y. U. s left end for a gain of twenty-five yards. Wesleyan tried a pass, which was batted down. N. Y. U. received a 15-yard penalty for clipping which placed the ball on N. Y. U. ' s 30-yard line. Miller made a sensational catch of a pass for fifteen yards. Rodriguez picked up four yards at center. Rodriguez gained three more at right guard. Bachtel got two more through the line. On the fourth down with a yard to go, Rodriguez made first down on the 5-yard line. Battles failed to advance through the line. On the fourth down with one yard to go. Battles failed to make the distance. . Y. punted. Follett, of N. Y. I ' .. caught it and it was 7-yard line. The quarter ended. Three running plays failed to gain for Wesleyan On th was attempted, but failed to connect. Thus Wesleyan ' s su- preme opportunity went to naught. Wesleyan ' s ground attack was far superior to that ol N. Y, U. ' s throughout the entire game, but when N. Y. I . started their aerial attack, Wesleyan was lost. All four of N. Y. U. ' s touchdowns were made as a result of a pass. The Wesleyan backfield could not seem to solve the enigma of the Violets ' passing. Wesleyan ' s entire line, although outweighed to a man, fought the N. Y. U. stalwarts to a standstill. Edmund- son, Bob Cat center, played a great defensive game and Rod- riguez earned oil the offensive honor by his left-handed run- ning. The final score was: Wesleyan 0; New N ork I niversity 20. Wesleyan ' s ball on N. Y. fourth down a U. ' s pass One hundred one ©@@ri@ft@wiBi As usual, the Wesleyan Bob Cats entered the game at Washington, D. C, as the underdog s. Before the game had come to its finale, the Wesleyan team was lighting like mad dogs, but no one could see anything under about them. They knew they were up against a tough team and so they proceeded to play a game that no team could be ashamed of. For three quarters, the Bob Cats fought as only mountain cats can fight. The Wesleyan team tossed the Hilltoppers of Georgetown back from their goal line for fifty minutes. The game during these fifty minutes was a gruelling hand-to- hand struggle. From the opening whistle to the break that made the first touchdown a possibility, the Bob Cats fought Georgetown to a standstill, gaining from one to live yards on every exchange of punts between Rodriguez and Captain Mooney of Georgetown. Only two first downs were register- ed in the first half, both of them by Georgetown. Neither team was able to penetrate its opponent ' s 20-yard line, and the edge for the hall was Wesleyan ' s Defensively, the Georgetown team outplayed Wesleyan. In the final period Georgetown swept through the Wesleyan team for two touch- downs. Both of the touchdowns came as the result of breaks . The first touch- down came after a fumble, and completely demoralized the Bob Cats. The second Georgetown score came as the result of a fumble again. The ball was fumbled on the kick-off and Georgetown recovered on Wesleyan ' s ten-yard line. After three downs, the final market was pushed over. The final score was. Wesleyan 0; Georgetown 12 The left side of the Bob Cat line, with Reemsnyder, giant tackle, and I lagerdon, end, leading the way was adamant and Georgetown gained little ground on plays sent in that direc- tion. For the Bob Cats in the backfield, Rodriguez, Battles, .u-nl Bachtel led the way in ball carrying Wesleyan did well to hold Georgetown to such a low score, but if those breaks had been eliminated there would have been no scoring at all. Georgetown had one of the best teams in the Fast. Various sports writers in Washington gave Wesleyan the honor of being the scrappiest team to play in Washington during this year. All in all the Georgetown game was quite a victor) lot Wesleyan. One hundred two ffn y A weakened Wesleyan team took the field at Annapolis, Md., against the Naval Academy and proceeded to show the BT Nav) lads some Bob Cat fighting spirit. Duetothelaciili.it P Wfc the Navy enforces a three-year playing rule, all of our seniors mmfZ fj an d freshmen were unable to participate in the game. Only ■ MBvK one of the regular backfield was eligible and only lour nl the J BT r regular linemen were able to take part in the game. Never- theless, the Wesleyan team held the strong Navy to a low score up until the closing moments of play. The entire game was played in a swirl of snow, and un- derfoot, the field was a sea of mud. Neither the Bob Cats M ■ nor the Middies could pick up sufficient yardage For a first W W down, so several punts were exchanged. Battles, kicking for l I Wesleyan, outpunted the Navy kicker and picked up several _ ' needed yards in this way. Near the close of the first quarter, a punt was fumbled by a Wesleyan back and .iv obtained possession of the ball on Wesleyan ' s 30-yard line. The Navy learn succeeded in plunging over a touchdown. On the first play after the kick-oil Battles cut through left tackle on a twenty- three yard line for first down on the Middies ' 57-yard line. The Bob Cats were given another first down when a Navy man interfered with a pass Battles ripped through the line for an eight yard gam. Wesleyan was penalized five yards here. Navy obtained possession of the ball as the quarter ended. After a steady march up the field, the Naval Academy eleven scored another touchdown. The two teams were un- able to advance consistently and so were forced to punt. The Navy team attempted a pass; a Wesleyan lineman knocked it down. Fordyce, tackle, scampered down the field with splendid interference for fift) yards and a touchdown. The half ended with the ball in Navy ' s possession. During the last half the Navj coach used frequent sub- stitutions and in this way wore down the Wesleyan team. Navy took advantage of its opportunities, recovering its own and Wesleyan ' s fumbles, intercepting two of the Bob Cat ' s passes and converting these breaks into points. Navy scored three touchdowns in this half, although threatening Wesleyan ' s goal at all times. The W esleyan line stiffened inside its own ten-yard line and pounded back at least three more touchdowns. The final score; Wesleyan 6; Navy 30. One htin.lri-J three Ian f I held kick. The Wesleyan Bob Cats bared their fangs and claws and fought their hearts out on Thanksgiving Day at Huntington to administer the most stunning defeat of 1929 to .Marshall ' s Thundering Herd . The score was 28-to-0. or four touch- down-, and .1 safety to nothing whatsoever, and the Bob Cats checked up points in each quarter. Captain Miller. Kelly Rodriguez and Cliff Battles, among others of the moleskin Bob Cats made football history with their deeds of gridiron valor, that will not soon be forgotten. The Thanksgiving Day game opened with Marshall kicking off. Wesleyan marched up the field to Marshall ' s 42-yard line, where they were held for downs. The Herd took the ball hut could not gain. Marshall attempted to kick, but big Dave Reemsnyder cut through the line and blocked it. Crites recovered on the 9-yard line. After mo line plays, Rodriguez plunged through the line for a touch- down. After the kick off. .Marshall succeeded in advancing the ball to the Bob Cat ' s 49-yard line. Here the Cat line ana Marshall was forced to punt. Wesleyan, after three line plays, had to The Herd took the ball on its own 54-yard line. Edmundson intercepted a .Marshall pass on the 45-yard line. Rodriguez and Battles carried the ball to the 10-yard line as the quarter ended Marshall stiffened and threw back the Boh Cat line plays. Stark kicked to his o n 44-yard line. Wesleyan, unable to gain kicked in return. The Thundering Herd tried to thunder, but could nowhere get through the Wesleyan line. Stark ' s kick as blocked again and recovered b) Capt, Miller, who raced lor a touchdown. In the remainder of the period neither team was able to advance the ball and thus several exchanges of punts were carried on. I he half ended with the ball in Mar- shall ' s possession in midtield. At the opening of the hall Wesleyan marched up the field lo Marshall ' s 1-foot line: — Battles and Rodriguez being the big guns in this drive. Marshall ' s line held and they took possession of the ball. Stark fumbled in attempting to kick, but recovered behind his goal, giv ing Wesleyan a safety. During the rest of the third quarter the ball was con- stantly in Marshall ' s territory, but Wesleyan could not push it over. At the opening of the last quarter. Rodriguez passed to Battles for a 20-yard gain and a touchdown. Marshall now- tried several long passes, but completing very few. One of these passes was intercepted by Miller on his own 13-yard line and he ran 87 yards for a touchdown. This play ended the scoring of the game. Final score: Weslevan 28; Mar- shall 0. Akkk One hurulii ' ii foUI mssft 3£§rcrii@ir A nemesis continued to follow Wesleyan even passing into our rival statu of Ohio. The Bob Cat eleven playing superb football garnered eleven first downs to St. Xavier ' s six. In most games this array of first downs would have won easily, but not a break seemed to be coming our way. The St. Xavier .Musketeers, by means of long passes and a break, managed to score nineteen points while we were gathering twelve. The game opened, and it seemed as though the Wesleyan backs were going to have a track meet instead of a football game. On the first play, Battles, on a reverse play, ran 45 yards. Then the Cats lost the ball on downs. St. Xavier fumbled. Anderson recovering for Wesleyan on St. Xavier ' s 42-yard line. A pass. Battles to Hagerdon. brought the ball up to the 53-yard line. Battles. Bachtel and Rodriguez earned another first down. Wesleyan fumbled and St. Xavier recovered. The Musketeer team punted and Battles returned to his 44-yard line. Bachtel and Battles got another first ing drive took them deep into Wesleyan ' s territory, but the Wesleyan team held as Xavier threatened to score. Wesleyan punted to midfield. Two St. Xavier passes. down. This started a drive down the field, ending on a spinner play, by Battles, for 1° yards and a touchdown. St. Xavier came back strong at the beginning of the second quarter. A smash- one for 35 yards and one for II yards, resulted in a touch- down. Both teams attempted several passes, but could not gain ground. Shortly after the second half had started, a St. Xavier back ran 80 yards for a touchdown. After this touchdown, Wesleyan carried the ball from their own 20-yard line for a touchdown, using nothing but straight football. St. Xavier recovered a Wesleyan fumble on the kick orf on the 4 -vard line. Both teams punted.. McDevitt, of St. Xavier. returned the punt to Wesleyan ' s 25-yard line and then slipped off tackle for 24 more yards. A touchdown was then made from the one-yard line on an end run. St. X.iv ier kicked off as the game ended. Pinal score: Wesleyan 12; St. Xavier 19. Thus Wesleyan lost another game on long passes by their opponents. The pass jinx never seemed to let up for a mo- ment, as the record of first down shows positively. One hun.Irisl five m The Bob Cats functioning like a well-oiled machine crunched over Salem to the tune of 47 to 0. From the first it was just too bad for the Tenmile invaders, and by the time the timer ' s stop-watch indicated the completion of the first quarter, the count already stood 27 to 0. From that stage on, from a Wesleyan standpoint, the game might have easily been called the substitutes ' parade , for Coach Ross shoved even uniformed man into the contest at one point or another. Although the Bob Cat attack slowed up a trifle with the second stringers on the field, its defense was just as adamant- ine and it journeyed along to score several times on the mo- mentum furnished in the first quarter. In three runs for touchdowns. Battles cleared the Salem tacklers for dashes of eighty-two, seventy-eight, and thirty- eight yards. Salem never penetrated beyond the Wesleyan thirty-yard line. Even the vaunted aerial game of the Tigers was of no avail. The defeat was the worst which Wesleyan has ever administered to a Salem College team and one of the worst which the Tigers have ever received anywhere. It can never be said, however, that the Tigers did not go down fighting against the Bob Cats for they fought every inch of the wa) Cliff Battles made pretty end runs and Kelly Rodriguez plunged the line at will as Salem ' s small but fighting Tigers went down under a 47- to-0 gridiron attack. The Wesleyan line opened holes for the backs, through which an army tank might be driven. Every Wesleyan man was in there strutting his stuff and no team could have slopped them, least of al! the Tigers of 1929. Salem did not have such a strong team this year as for- merly, but the Wesleyan Bob Cats were on a rampage and no snarling Tiger could even faze their numerous marches down the field. This was Wesleyan ' s great year and even the Salem Tigers had to admit the fact. Heretofore this game has been one hectic struggle, but this year it was seen early in the game who was to emerge as victor. One hundred six _J P id Boasting superiority in weight and in experience, the Bob Cats of Wesleyan ran wild over the Bethany Bisons, rolling up a total of fifty-two points to nothing. The game was just one long string of Bob Cat advances, running the ends and breaking through the line at will. The hard-driving Wes- leyan team could not be stopped and thus amassed quite a number of points. The Bisons showed little strength in the line, permitting terrific gains to be made through the wall by the hard-hitting Captain .Miller and Beveridge who was fill- ing the position of Rodriguez at fullback who v. as nut of the line-up on account of illness. Gip Battles literally ran wild around the ends and off tackle, shaking the would-be Bison lacklers off and continuing on his way. These promiscuous long runs could not have been possible without the perfectly functioning Wesleyan line. The Bob Cats ran up a total of 26 first downs to four for the Bisons, the latter never keeping the ball for any length of time and never penetrating the Bob Cat territory farther than the 40-yard line. The Bob Cats rang up three markers in the opening period on end runs by Battles and through the line by Beveridge. In the second period two touchdowns were made, giving the Bob Cats a total of U points for the half. During the last hall. Coach Ross gave every substitute the opportunity of show- ing his stuff. The substitutes continued the practice of the regulars and two more touchdowns were garnered in the third quarter and one in the closing stanza. Bethany came down here with a much heralded team and a very thrilling battle was anticipated. Wesleyan was primed for a tough struggle, but working like a fiery monster of old, it cast its opponents aside and continued on its way as if it had not been molested. The Bethany Bisons were no match for the Wesleyan Bob Cats on this daw and the alumni got quite a thrill from watching the track meet. The game was the first between the Bisons and Bob Cats for a number of years. There has been a considerable amount of interest in the athletic relations of these two schools and a more suitable team could not have been found for Wesley- an ' s 1 lome-Coming Day. One hundred l ' lti Wesleyan ' s season at home was ushered in with a victory over the Concord .Mountain Lions. A fighting Bob Cat team performed brilliantly all afternoon and completely outplayed the highly touted Mountain Lion team from Concord State. The Bob Cats scoring at will, amassed a total of thirty-nine points while Concord gathered nothing. Line plunging, off tackle plays, and passes, with Miller making some magnificent catches, made the game fast. In the opening period Rodriguez accounted for Wesleyan ' s first touchdown of the year and was closely followed by the sec- ond with F. Bachtel carrying the hall. Bachtel scored again near the close of the hall. Due to the fact that a large number of substitutions were used in the third quarter, no scoring was done In the final e ion. however, three touchdowns were made by Battles. Siandru, and A. Bachtel. In this game the so-called weak line of Wesleyan earned for itself a new name by staunchly throwing back the Con- cord ranks. IDavns El!kSDai The Scarlet Hurricane of Davis-F.lkins defeated the Wes- leyan Bob Cats 13-0 in a hard fought battle In the opening minutes of the game. Wesleyan made a drive from its own twenty-yard line. This was the only real threat brought forth b) Wesleyan during the game. After an eighty-yard advance. Davis-Elkins scored a marker in the first quarter. Their second score came late in the first half as a result of a long run by Smith. Davis-Elkins. The entire second half was a deadlock; neither team could advance the ball consistently enough to threaten to score. The first downs were even in this half. Rodriguez Anderson and Reemsnyder shared the honors for Wesleyan. This game was played under protest; Wesleyan protest- ing the eligibility of a Davis-Llkins man. The player was proven ineligible, and thus the game was won by Wesleyan through forfeit. A h ' One hundred eight ■- XiS 1 e i « , Jf . : Track, 1929 This year, for the first time in a number of years, Wesleyan ven- tured forth with a track team. This venture was the result of consider- able interest and track material present in the school. A good deal of the material, most of it in fact, was green and I lead Track Coach Arthur II. Simons had his hands full in turning out an even mediocre squad. The squad, however, did exceedingly well for its first year of existence. Only two meets were attempted this year and both were lost. The first meet was with West Virginia University. The State squa.l gar- nered I lo 1 _• points and Wesleyan IS 1 ... Battles of Wesleyan, in the 110-yard high hurdles, took the onl} first place obtained by his team Williams and Rhodes took second in the two-mile and hundred-yard ilash respectively. The second and last meet was with Waynesburg College. Waynes- burg gathered 71 points and Wesleyan 04. Battles getting 10 points. Williams nine, and Rhodes nine, were high scorns for Wesleyan. The season ' s letter men were: Captain Flossie Williams. Gip Battles. Harry Craig, Harold Rhodes, and Farland Arnold.

The nucleus of the l°2 l ) team was lost by graduation and the prospects did nol look so good for the 1930 squad. However, alter the season opened, the team appeared to be well rounded out, and as the record shows, every game was a tough one. I he score was close in practically every game, except those we won by large scores. The climax ol the season came when we handed the .Mountaineer quintet a good trouncing. Away from home the team did not do so well, but at home we lost only two games out of seven. A number of games were lost by very close scores and the season ' s record of victories is not so laudable yet that does not show the true worth of our team.

This year the Freshman rules were made in an effort to lift the system from one of subjugation and courseness, to one of high-minded competition, spirited rivalry, and the development of class loyalty. The Home-coming and Fhuse meetings were very successful this year. The point system, established on a four year basis, with a permanent award, will give it greater value. The Council devoted its main efforts this year to the establishment of a Vocational Guidance program, securing a known specialist in the field to speak, and affect some organization. It is hoped that it will grow to be a permanent and most valuable institution at Wesleyan. And finally, the Council instituted a plan of reorganization of Gov- ernment.

The nucleus of The Play Shop consists of players who have had experience in Wesleyan plays; however, admission into the organization may be gained by activities other than actual participation in plays. Such -er ice as stage management, lighting, business management, and costuming will be sufficient grounds for admission. This organization incorporates the old members of Wesleyan Players and also its alumni members. The first work of The Play Shop was the sponsoring of The Doll ' s House , a three act play by Ibsen. The organization was also responsible for a group of one-act plays. The Valiant , a one-act play, was given and entered in the state contest at Fairmont. The intention of these dramatists is to build up a strong local organ- ization with the ultimate goal of accouplement with a strong national dramatic fraternity. Although a mere child, as h were, the Wesleyan Play Shop may reach the pinnacle of its strivings in the very near future due to the wide popularity and distinction of Wesleyan players heretofore.
