THE 1933 E WARRIOR A week later, the Lawrcnccmcn took to the road, journeying to Peru, but came home with colors at half mast and an obtuse score. 13 to 7. Davis and Brandt made a fine impres- sion on the veteran Peru team although Midland failed to score until late in the game. An aerial attack brought home the seven points. Archie Brandt, freshman halfback, played the role of hero in the contest with Tarkio. The game, earmarked with resemblances to the typical dime store novel type, ended 7 to 6. favoring the orange and black. The foreigners pushed across the first marker but failed on the convert. Brandt took the ensuing kickoff on his four yard line and. with a display of clever field running behind almost perfect interference, ran the entire length of the field for the counter. Ellison kicked goal to win the game. Nebraska Wesleyan was the next visitor, bringing the highly touted Robert Gibb. Although the half ended with the score tied 7 to 7. the game finished 14 to 7, due mostly to the great Gibb. Carlton turned an ankle during the last half and the Midland initiative was deadened at this loss. An intercepted pass taken by Davis and a long twisting run by Chief' McGillis made the Midland counter. Engel will be remembered for some time in Bethany where the Warriors tangled with the Corner Collegians. The lanky tackle broke up two punts, the last one paving the way for a touchdown when Lyman plunged over the two yard line. T he score went down on the annals 6 to 0 to the Fremonters’ credit. The worst beating of the year was taken from a Hastings team on Hansen field in Hastings. Score: 24 to 7. Hastings. Blocked punts and safeties featured the York-Midland game at Fremont ending in the win list. 14 to 9. In the last game of the year, Doane upset the flimsy dope pail and finished 12 to 8 over the bewildered Warriors. Silas Lyman with 30 points led Midland scorers for the season. Brandt with 18 and Wilson with 1 2 were next in line. ❖ • • Fifijr-on

A large squad turned out a week before school, but spirits were damp- ened at the news that Norman Carl- ton. veteran quarterback, would not be back. Dean Hampton and “Chick” McMillen took reins in their hands, but two weeks later “C. G.“ appeared in suit. Backfield material of good caliber was so abundant as to outnumber the candidates for the line and two backfield combinations were formed, a heavy foursome for line plunging and a “pony quartet for aerial and fleetfooted charges. Strenuous prac- tices were held earlier than usual because of a September 23 date with the Hebron Knights. Midland had little trouble in knocking the Hebron lads for a 19 to 0 roll with the combined aid of Ellison and McGillis. Every sub on the bench reported to the referee at least long enough to feel regulation sod under the cleats. Top tow: Anderton. Obttg. Davit. Elliot. Engel, Fuhrmeiiter.
