.,. I. ,,. re RAMSAY Elyria vs. Lakewood, November 1, 1930: Lakewood fought their way through a 7-0 Elyria tussle. The Purple outcharged the Elyria men on every play. The tally was made by Liiiiton in the third stanza, and Laundy kicked the extra point, making the score 7-0. Carl Smith broke through the visitors' line in the third and started the locals' rally. Carl played his best game in the Elyria match. Don Pearson was part of almost every play in which Lake- wood was on the defensive. Ramsay, who took Berry's place at center, led a lively tackling attack, which did much to help in the win. Berry, left guard, was a main factor. Heights vs. Lakewood, November 8, 1930: Although the home battlers were trounced by the Heightsmen, they made the visitors know that they had been in a battle after the final gun. The first tally for the opponents was raised in the second quarter after the Purple fumbled and a Heights player galloped 30 yards to cross the line. The Lakewood linemen who stood out the most were Pearson and Teckmyer. Teckmyer played against one of this year's all-scholastic ends and kept him employed. Blanke made the largest gains for the Purple eleven. White replaced Blanke during the second period, playing for the first time this season.

Q PEARSON SMITH nf' Lakewood vs. Lorain, October 11, 1930: The Purple and Gold could not down that old j inx which has tagged them for four successive football seasons. Teck- myer, at left end, was usually the one to get in and get the man carrying the ball for the Lorain aggregation. Hinz could not play his best because his shoulder had been injured in the Youngstown game, but part of every tackle found him in it. Weissinger made several needed gains via the air, in the fourth quarter, but the passes were always intercepted when the line reached the opponents' 30-yard stripe, and Lorain once more held the ball. Rocky River vs. Lakewood, October 18, 1930: It turned out to be entirely a one-sided game in which the locals defeated the Rivermen with a score of 47-0. Instead of using the first team, Coach Ross used the second and the third teams. Harold Weissinger was the high scorer when he went over the opposing stripe for 24 points. Tom Ward, the 140-pound Liffiton replacement, made long advances through the line, which were the main reasons for the Lakewood tally being raised in the first two minutes of play. Grossman made one goal for the home team when he crossed the River stripe after a 12-yard run. Laundy was the first Purple man to go over for a touchdown and six points. wif 1 'fc L.

VAN ALMEN t Donko HINZ 5.5 Lakewood vs. Shaw, November 15, 1930: Shaw downed the local mountains by the puny score of 2-0, a blocked pass over the goal being the score-maker. Lakewood was not able to hold onto the ball on kicks, this playing a large part in their defeat. The home aggregation shadowed the opponents' goal several times, but the Shaw- men held and stopped the Rossmen from going across the stripe. Ramsay, who was picked for the all-scholastic, showed the whys and wherefores of this choice by being in consistently on the killing for the locals' defense. Dorko played a steady all-round good game, and Berry and Hinz also played their hard-fighting games. Lakewood vs. West Tech, November 27, 1930: Lakewood skidded to a victory over West Tech in the annual Turkey Day fracas by raising 7 points to Tech's 0. The run that put the pill across the stripe was executed by Laundy after catching a pass from Blanke. The Purple- Coated line did their best to hold on the icy field and they proved to be the better line. Mikula, at right end, showed his worth in holding down Markworth of the Carpenter eleven.
