But W Dame Fortune saved the day and those efforts of' Dee and his team mates were closed '90 CQ in a deadlock when he, after having apparently a clear held, slipped and the last chance bg Q was gone. On Armistice day the Maroon met the Red and White Main Avenue team Q from San Antonio in a sea of mud and the result was Heights' first and only defeat by the small margin of 2 to o. But, as on a few other occasions, the score does not indicate i ilk- which really was the best team. Heights outplayed Main in every period except the 5 2 third one, when Main blocked a Heights punt and Hart recovered only to be tackled J if for a safety. lVIcCarble went out with an injured shoulder, while Johnny Durham Q hurt his ankle. Near the close of the game Heights rallied again, but that goal line -is U punch was lacking. Davis, Wiseman, F. Fisher, and Martellra were the outstanding - 5 stars. To further show that even defeat could not dampen their spirits, the team came I ' back with a victory over Port Arthur at West End, even though most of the regulars gtg were injured and could hardly play. The punch was there when needed to make a 3 Heights gain or stop a Port Arthur advance. Port Arthur scored when Heights failed lac. to cover their opponents on a long pass and the yellow jackets ran sixty yards for a touchdown. Heights scored first on a Held goal by Hardcastle.

On this occasion Davis, do 3' 'Z' Dee, VViseman, and McCarble were the outstanding players. Then came Victoria with nk, all her huskies arrayed in bright yellow. However, it was most unfortunate for them fi Q1 . . . . so as that the Heights was in its prime, and when the first quarter ended nearly every regular J QE? had a reserve in his place and these boys were always on the alert. The maroon was -1 Q good both offensively and defensively and the 40 to O score tells that, in all instances, i good football teams improve with age and experience. A short time later came the game Q -T-7 in Austin which, for the first five minutes, looked like the initial defeat of the year. J 3 But the Bull Dogs recovered from the shock of playing in Ma Ferguson's back yardn gi, and won the game I2 to 9. Heights was better in every part of the game. Dee 'Cgiven i ij the name of Indian'l by Austin scribesj with the assistance of Wiseman, made both 7 f 5 touchdowns. Stewart and Hardcastle, alternating at quarterback, handled the team Q well. Hardcastle gave Austin a safety rather than risk kicking from behind the goal Qs line. The cost of success was heavy, for it took Captain Kennedy from the line-up with Q a broken foot. In the later games until his return, the squad was conscious of the lack O of Red's fighting spirit, and especially in the Brackenridge game, where those cold Hg San Antonio winds seemed to haunt and dull its spirit.

Clark, reserve end, played a fine game, recovering many fumbles for the cause. Then came the gif, South End game, and Coach Dain again demonstrated that as far as football goes, he 53 knew his Stuff The Coach used every sub available, and again these boys did their Lefty stuH' and only occasionally on passes was South End able to penetrate the Maroon 375,-1 - - - 55:2 territory. The result of this game, a score of I3 to 6, served to make them think of that game coming which meant a season's success or failure. Every man on the squad is to be commended for the way he co-operated with the coach toward winning the final game of the season. On December fifth at Rice Held, Heights defeated their downtown Qyf-C5 rivals by the score of IQ to 12.
