THE TIGERS, in opening the 1936 football season, out- played Mendota in the first half. The Strommen seemed to have the weight and ability, but couldn't put the ball over. Mendota took to the air in the second half, and beat Princeton by the score of 18 to 0. In the second tilt of the Princeton Footballers. they were defeated by one point. Dick Kasbeer pushed over Princeton's six points. Due to an er- ratic pass from center, the extra point was missed by Ellis. In the last quarter, quarterback Edward's jaw was fractured, and for the rest of the season Princeton suffered from the lack of a good passer. Lady Luck gave Princeton the cold shoulder in the fourth quarter of the thirty-seventh traditional grid conflict with Kewanee at Bryant Field. The visiting Boilermakers slipped two touchdowns through a pugnacious Tiger lot to win the annual contest 13 to 7. With the aid of good blocking, Neill sped 100 yards for a touchdown with Ke- Wanees kickoff after they had scored their second touchdown late in the fourth quarter. What, according to pre-game notions, might have been a good game, ended up in a gallant vic- tory for the Red Devils of Spring Valley. Final score was Hall 52, Princeton O. The Bengals showed fight and determination although they were decided- ly beaten throughout the game. Princeton played a whale of a game against Ottawa, but the latter team scored a touchdown on a lucky pass. The Princeton boys played hard in especially the third quarter in which they were suc- cessful in getting the ball deep into Ottawa terri- tory. Due to a fumble, they were unable to put the ball over. The backfield did a good job in both halves offensively. The line also showed decided im- +rmf1 U T U M N provement in this game. The final tally was 7 to 0. In the next game Dixon had little trouble in de- feating the Princetonians 25 to 0. Princeton was outplayed as well as outclassed. Yet the team fought in every minute of the tilt. The victory was not so overwhelming as the score indicates. The Annual Homecoming game with DePue at Princeton was marked by the only victory of the season for the Bengals. Due to heads up foot- ball on the part of the Bengals, they Won 12 to 0. Both touchdowns were the result of passes inter- cepted by Hanson and Neill. In the annual Armistice game with Geneseo, Princeton met a very potent foe. Princeton was com- pletely outclassed in the first half, but redeemed themselves in the second. They made a sustained drive of forty-five yards which was stopped by the strong Geneseo line. The second time they made a thirty yard drive that climaxed with a touchdown for the Bengals. Kasbeer went over for the touch- down. The kick for the extra point was blocked. The final score read Geneseo 18, Princeton 6. The Princeton Reserves finished their season with two defeats and one victory. Coach Ewart worked hard with the boys trying to develop some Freshmen and Sophomores to aid the first team's games next fall. One promising backfield man is Jack Staples. Hall and Kewanee Won their tilts against Princeton by a score of 13 to 0. The Princeton Reserves won over the Ottawa Reserves by a 6 to 0 score. In this game a blocked punt paved the way to victory. Nine Princeton gridders ended their prep foot- ball career with the Geneseo game. They are Captain Simpson, Roggy, Hanson, Paschen, Nelson, Kasbeer, Middleton, Wortz and Dawson. 'ti Page Fourteen
