A recovered fumble and an intercepted pass put the Mateans in scoring position. The scores were made by passes. Willie Silva tossed one to Bob Irvin, end, and Noah Curti flipped the other to Silva. The Berdoo outfit also scored on a pass. Probably the most thrilling game of the season was chalked up when the Bulldogs played their one home game-against Santa Ana. The battle ended with a 6 to 6 tie. The most dramatic play of the game was sponsored by Don halfback, Tinken, who took a short pass from Joy on his own 15-yard line in the last minute of play, side stepped and squirmed through the Mateans to the 5-yard mark. Here he tried to reverse his field, after seemingly having a clear way for a score, but was clutched from behind by Curti. Earlier in the contest, however, San Mateo had been first to counter. As they easily dominated the beginning of the fray, a 50-yard toss from Curti to Silva in the first quarter was good for six points. Ed Huff set up the pass play by inter- cepting a Don throw. Defeat came back to nestle in the bosom of the tired Bulldog team with the last game of the season against Sacramento at the capital city. The Panthers won, 12 to 7. The San Mateo eleven played even-up ball throughout the hrst quarter of action. But with the second period a rejuvenated Sac eleven score-marched twice. San Mateo hnally gained an offensive chance in the fourth quarter. Andre Bogart and Ed Huff carried the ball for most of the drive on the ground. Then Curti pitched to Silva for 20 yards. Again Curti tossed to Irvin for 20. On the next try he dropped one 26 yards over the goal line to Huff. Silva place kicked the extra point. Despite their not-too-impressive record, San Mateo placed three men on the all-conference team: Willie Silva, Harold Stireman, and Al Tamborini. Silva, of course, was quarterback, Stireman a guard, and Tamborini an end. Noah Curti, fullback and Ed Huff, were given second string rating.
