Balconi helps to contribute to our defeat ' WESTERN RESERVE FROSH 0-MANSFIELD 3 Mansfield won a 3 to 0 tussle from an overconfident Western Reserve Freshman squad. Although the Tygers were heavily outweighed by the college eleven they more than held their own against them. Three times the Bengals drove almost to the goal and three times they were stopped by the Red Cat impregnable forward wall. In the last stanza the local lads drove down the field and they finally had a first on the five. The Tygers crashed into the line but they were stopped, however, and Johnny Halla- brin attempted a field goal with Joe Majoy holding. It was good, the first and only score of the fray. AKRON KENMORE 6-MANSFIELD 21 As Coach Murphy started his reserves, the first stringers found themselves on the short end of a 6 to 0 score. Miller, crack Kenmore back, scored early in the first quarter. However, this was the only time the visitors were permitted to score because the Tyger forward wall completely bottled up the lads from the Rubber City. Johnny Hallavbrin ran 40 yards behind spectacular blocking for the Bengals' first score. The Tyger captain converted the extra point. Early in the second half, Nagle carried the pigskin into paydirt and again Hallabrin made the extra point. It was the Bengal field general who broke through a large hole to turn in the last score of the game. The attempted kick was good. ASHLAND 0 1l'lA'NSl lELD 13 'On a snow-swept gridiron, Mansfield downed a fighting Ashland eleven 13 to 0. Johnny Kinkle went over for both touch- downs. A pass from Hallabrin to Dials gave us the extra marker. This tussle ended the most successful season the Tygers have experienced for quite a while. Stehle, Luckie, Dials, Heiser, Horvath, Adams, Rupp, Ziegler, Hallabrin, Kinkle, Majoy turned in brilliant per- formances in their last game. Baliet, Koroknay, Bowersock, Deems, Baker, Hamilton, and Hammett also played in their last game for dear old H. H. S. Johnny Kinkle and Hillbilly Dials ,:,

Nagle tries to break his way through WOOSTER 0 - MANSFIEIJD 25 Mansfield encountered little 'trouble defeating a lighter Wooster team as the Tygers again demon- strated their powerful attack. Playing without Hallabrin, their brilliant captain, the Men of Murphy scored once in each period while their strong forward wall prevented the Generals from making a single first down. The Winsper coached aggregation was completely outclassed as the Mansfield backs consistently made long gains, with Kinkle and Nagle, a converted center, leading the way. This game offered Coach Murphy the first opportunity to use his inexperienced players. The Tyger mentor took advantage of this by using over three full teams. Outstanding performances were turned in by Ziegler, Rupp, Horvath, and Dials. SANDUSKY 6 - MANSFIELD 0 This game saw the thrice-beaten Blue Streaks of Sandusky hand a demoralized Mansfield team their first defeat of the season by a score of 6 to 0. The heavily 'favored Tygers were able to gain little ground through the visitor's fighting line, while the Streaks, keyed up for this game, scored in the final quarter on a pass to Balconi in the end zone. The defeat added strength to the belief that a San- dusky jinx exists. SHELBY 18 MANSFIELD 39 - - Shelby came to Mansfield determined to live up to their -..-....-. reputation of being a fight- inrw ing team but was unable to - f match the superior man power of the Tygers. During the entire first half the Mansfield lineup consisted of only sophomores and r.. juniors, which explains the 121 to fi lead Shellby held at the intermission. In the sec- ond half the Mansfield var- sity exhibited a power attack that the bordertown team could not attempt to stop. Hallabrin, elusive Tyger cap- tain, returned to his former prestige for the first time since his injury, by scoring two touchdowns on brilliant runs. Q' Jr' f House of David Majoy and Fuzzy Rupp
