R.H.S. THE COMET 1 9 2 3 SCHEDULE BUHL vs. RUPERT, September 29 The Buhl boys arrived full of confidence, feeling that they had a Nvery easy game ahead of them. They weie huskie but Rupert did not lose hope. The first quarter there was no scoring, but some very good playing by both teams. In the second quarter Speed Long sprinted forty yards for a touchdowng during the third quarter Stony,' made a wide sweep around right end for the second touchdown and in the last quarter Skinny Nelson and Long scored. Dluring the entire game excellent line work was shown by Rupert's line. Buhl, 0-Rupert, 27 OAKLEY vs. RUPERT at OAKLEY, October 5 The Rupert team did not show their former speed and head work. The team's style of playing showed it's lack of practice during Institute week. The men on the team handled the ball as if it were a potato and scored ac-- cordingly. In the second quarter Skinny Nelson completed a drop kick and the Oakley huskies came back at Rupert with a touchdown, which ended the scoring for the entire game. Oakley, 7-Rupert, 3 - BURLEY vs. RUPERT at RUPERT, October 13 We met our old riavls on the 13th, but it was their unlucky day, not ours. The field was soaked with a week's rain, needless to say it was very disagree- able. Both teams entered the game looking fairly respectable, but when they came off from the field they could hardly be told apart. During the second quarter Stony carried the ball over the line for the first touchdown, and during the third quarter Long carried the ball across for our last score. In the last quarter the Burley eleven bucked up and put the ball over for their only touchdown. Burley, 6-Rupert, 13 TWIN FA-LLS vs. RUPERT at TWIN, October 20 An unlucky day for R. H. S-. The Leopards were full of vim and fight and determination to win but they did not even score. The Twin Falls team. did not go through our team or over it, they simply pushed us back by their superior weight. Everyone admired Rupert for her pluck and determination. Not a man gave up until the game was over, even in the face of Twin's constant scoring. Twin Falls, 69-Rupert, 0 Page Fifty-Fizz'
