Review of the Season 1 The first football game of the season opened with Perry High School, on Friday October Znd, Tonkawa winning by a score of 46 to 13. The first half ended with a score of 20 to 7 in favor of the State School. The next half our boys continued to score and made four touch downs. Par-I ker, our big full back, accounted for three of these, making at one time a smash over center for a twenty-two yard gain. . The next game of the season was played with Philips University on our field. This was the best game of the season. The men were in good shape to meet the Preachers. The game was bitterly contested, both teams put up a good fight, but the Preachers in the last half proved too strong for our boys, the game ending with a score of 14 to 17, in favor of Philips.. This was the first time in six years thatwe had lost a game' at home. The third contest of the season was with the Ponca' Indians, Haskell, Carlisle, and Chilocco Indians,old veterans,on Friday November the-fifth.Our boys won over the Indians by a score of 68 to 0. As to size the teams were about evenly matchedybut when it came to real football the Red Sk-ins were far outclassed. During the entire game the Indians only made their downs twice, and our boys never lost the ball on downs a single time. In the' season of 1914 we defeated the Ponca Indians by a score of 116 tc 0. 1 The fourth game of the season was played with Alva, State Normal. Our boys were badly beaten and crippled by the State Normalites,l the score ended 39 to 0 in favor of Alva. The cause, no doubt, of our boys being so badly beaten is that they went to Alva in cars, and were in no shape for the game. A The fifth game of the season was with Blackwell High School on their field. Blackwell defeated the State School by a score of 13 to 0. The boys of both teams were well matched for size. But owing to the fact that just a few days previous to the game our boys played Alva and the result of the game left them in bad condition. Some of our best players were unable to play, and men of the second team had to be substituted. This is the first time that Blackwell ever defeated our boys. The Claremore game was the last game of the season, played on Thanksgiving Day at Claremore. This was the cleanest game of the season. Both teams showed good spirit, but as the Claremore boys were used to la muddy field, they were better able to handle themselves. They defeated our team by a score of 13 to O This is the first time in the history of the two schools that Claremore has defeated our team.
