THE GUTHRIE GAME. For the third game Enid journeyed to Guthrie and opened the contest on a muddy field. Guthrie proved vulnerable to CoX's and King's end runs during the first half. These resulted in two touchdowns for Arbuckle's warriors. Between halves Enid re- solved to make the score 49-0. The end run method proving too slow on the heavy field, Arbuckle resorted to the forward pass, secured five touchdowns, and failed to kick only one goal. The last touchdown was made by carrying the ball the full length of the field in less than one minute of play. The final score was 48-0. The forward pass was the feature of this game. This marked Enid's first victory, and her second conference game. THE PONCA CITY GAME. The game opened with a rush by the Enid aggregation, who registered a touchdown in each of the first two quarters, and the half ended with the score 14-O in favor of Enid. The visitors came back in the third quarter with some aggressive football and made a touchdown. Enid repeated the performance, except that she failed to kick goal. In the fourth period, the visitors again scored a touchdown by the pass route, and, as a last resort, specialized in this method of attack. Altho at one time they threatened Enid's goal, they failed to add more to their score. This game showed a decided im- provement in Enid's playing. Arbuckle, King, and Barnes starred for Enid.

With only one letter man back, and without a practice game, the Enid men played their ancient rivals from Blackwell. Blackwell scored first with a touchdown but failed to kick goal. In the second quarter the visitors scored again with a field goal from a difficult angle, and the half ended with the score 9-0. The third quarter was scoreless. In the final quarter Enid opened up with an aerial attack and scored one touchdown, kicking goal. The sky attack was continued, and the final Whistle found the ball on Blackwell's ten yard line, in Enid's hands, and the count, first down and ten yards to go. The game ended with a score 9-7 in favor of the visitors. Dunning's punting and Arbuckle's defensive work featured the game. V THE SHAWNEE GAME. The game with Shawnee was the first conference game. Enid started with a rush, Haskins intercepting a pass in the first period, and racing for the initial touchdown. Arbuckle kicked goal. The next period was scoreless, and the half ended with the score 7-0 in favor of Enid. The third quarter showed a weakening in Enid's defense, and the visitors carried the ball down the field for two successive downs by off-tackle plays, but failed to kick goal. The last quarter Enid's defense strengthened and held the Shawnee team, but an intercepted pass resulted in another touchdown for the visitors. The game ended with the score 20-7 in favor of Shawnee. Arbuckle, King, Whartenby, and Haskins played the stellar parts for Enid.

THE CHICKASHA GAME. The mighty Strauss Warriors invaded Enid's territory for our third conference game, and walked away with the long end of the score. Enid registered the first tally with a touchdown and goal, but was unable to keep the visitors from doing the same in the first half. The half ended with the score 7-7. However, in the third quarter the superior Weight of the invaders began to tell on Enid's defense, and her line proved weak in several places, for the third quarter ended with the score 21-7 for Chickasha, and for the first time Enid's defense broke down at the last. The game ended with the score 42-7 in favor of the visitors. THE WICHITA GAME. Enid's worthy foes from the north made their annual invasion for the sixth game. We took them to the Association Park and proceeded to give them a reception mixed with forward passes and end runs, which resulted in a score of 14-0 at the end of the first half. In the second half Enid repeated this performance and when the final whistle sounded we had succeeded in taking the long end of the 35-3 score, which is the largest score Enid has ever registered over the sunflower products from Wichita. Arbuckle and Haskins were numbered with the stellar performers in this contest.
