JOHN S. ROTE MILES S. MILLIRON Mgr. of Athletics Assistant Coach SEPTEMBER 31 KITTANNING 13-PUNXSUTAWNEY12 Coming back from defeat to victory, the 'fWildcats', captured the Hrst of their trio of Frank Merriwell wins. Paced by Slic Eckland, who seemed a whiz even on a Hmuddyl' field, Punxsutawney overcame a 6-O lead to score its twelve points, and held this lead up to the closing minutes of the game when Kittanning, led by Buzzinotti and a hard charging line staged a sustained downfield drive of seventy yards. Cigola scored the touchdown, and Buzzinotti added the point of victory. OCTOBER 8 KITTANNING 6-HAR-BRAC O The following week, Kittanning duplicated the stirring finish of the previous week, defeating Har-Brac, that came here boasting an unusually strong team. For fifty-nine and one-half minutes both teams fought to a standstill, until almost the last play of the game produced the margin of victory. Standing back on his own thirty-yard line, Buzzinotti hurled a pass straight down the center to Richardson, Who, aided by some expert blocking, galloped the rest of the way for a hard-earned victory. lncidentally, this marked Kittanningls first victory ever achieved over Har-Brac. OCTOBER 16 KITTANNING 14-R-VANDERGRIFT 20 Playing at Vandergrift in its first daylight encounter, Kittanning failed to break its Hjinxu on foreign soil. Vandergrift was not expected to give the Wildcats much trouble, but they surprised Kittanning with their aerial attack and managed to eke out a 20-14 decision over a mediocre Kittanning team, performing below its usual standard. OCTOBER 22 KITTANNING 7-MT. PLEASANT O Returning to their home field, the Wildcats encountered Mt. Pleasant Ramsay in a veritable sea of mud, and Kittanning proved to be the better mudder to the tune of 7-0. Both teams played strictly orthodox football with Cigola managing to score at close range after a blocked kick early in the third period. The victory became more important when Mt. Pleasant turned out to be runnerup for the Class A cham- pionship of W. P. I. A. L. OCTOBER 29 KITTANNING 7-BUTLER 6 This game finally broke the dreaded jinx,' of playing away from home, for Kittanning staged a typical Hwildcatl' finish to capture the first of a new football series with Butler. For three quarters the teams battled evenly until a blocked kick in the final period netted Butler' a touchdown. Then, with but a few minutes remaining to play Buzzinotti took to the air, and ended by whipping Orr a perfect strike across the goal line. Richardson added the all-important point after touchdown with another pass from Buzzinotti. Page T-wenly-Eight
