X A 1 I I P I QAV + if I ae sr y sss a if f SCHAEKER scnmmucorrn ' swim Tmosm 1 1 1 The Multnomah Stadium, Portland, was the scene of a happy revenge for the Col- umbia Irish for many defeats suffered when they routed the St. Martin,s Rangers with a score of 35 to 0. This was the annual home-coming game and the Irish piled up a convincing score - to show the grads that they too could play football. Pete Murphy opened the Hreworks for the fighting Irish,' from the Willamette when he took the kick-off on his own 19-yard line and ran for a touchdown behind 'perfect interference. After an exchange of punts in the second period the Gaels scored again when a pass from Cosgrove to Milan netted 30 yards and brought the ball to the Rangers' 3-yard line. Murphy went over for a touchdown. The second period also saw Q'Ike Davis receive a pass from Cosgrove on the 40-yard marker and run 60 yards for another six points. The beginning of the second half was rather a punting duel between O'Brien of Columbia and Norman of St. Martin's. The Rangers were forced back to the 20-yard line. The Cliff-Dwellers broke through the center, which resulted in a pass which rolled over the goal line, netting the Irish,' two points. Soon after this Pete Murphy drove over another touchdown after a series of end runs and off-tackle plays. The fifth score of the game was made on a reverse in which Hume gained 25 yards. Murphy again Put the ball A over. l St. Martin's threatened their opponents seriously at the end of the half and again near the end of the fourth period, but the heavy Irish line held. Tenoski got away for several long gains for the Rangers. Pete Murphy starred on the Columbia team. wi' I' 1e.e I ,aa-!v.yJ..1, you -.1 -. .im It-,-3 x. ..,x f. iw- - 4-11.-:A WIN - - -gxyxiixlirb-' 1-'-.vim-',-'us ...- -. - .., 1 .- ff 1,5,,J.,.n.bQN'Lwg:1:-mf-.1X.

Mertes circled end for the second first down. Unluckily the Rangers fumbled, which ended their offensive threat. ' The lion-hearted Tenoski plowed through the Frosh line for another first do-wn in the fourth quarter, and made another first down after Sinko gained five yards on a lateral pass. Cap-tain Tenoski was the star on the Ranger squad. Big Jim Markle, tackle, Russ Smith, center, Walter Sinko, half, and Clyde Lewis, right guard, also played strong games. AMERICAN LEGION CLUB A thrilling contest was witnessed by a good-sized cro-wd on Stewart field in Aber- deen, Sunday, November 3, when the Rangers tangled with the 'Legion in a 6 to 6 tie score. Somebody in the pile was off-side when Gib- Skeate speared through the line to St. Martin's one-yard stripe. The Rangers took advantage of this break which enab-led them to prevent their opponents from scoring. The teams were well-matched and neither seriously threatened to score again in the Hrst half. It was not until the third quarter that things began to b-reak. First Chesty Grant fumbled a punt. The Rangers recovered and the .time-old udead man's play advanced the pigskin to the eight-yard line. Two do-wns netted but four yards and a bad pass enabled the Legion to throw the Rangers for a three-yard loss. On the fourth Atkinson threw Sinko for a ten-yard loss. Davidson punted and the fleet- footed Keber dodged a couple of necktie tacklers and was not b-rought down until he had lodged the b-all o-n the Legionis eight-yard line. Norman made seven yards through the line and Tenoski carried the ball over for the touchdown. The try for point was low. A pass from Davidson to Eddy was only stopped when Norman caught Eddy on the two-yard line. Skeate hurled himself over for a score but the pass for point was knocked down. The Legion threatened again when the ball was advanced to the twenty- five-yard line, but the Ranger line held and neither goal was threatened throughout the remainder of the game. Peterson starred for the Aberdeen squad, while Norman, Keber, and Sinko were the outstanding Ranger players. I
