L A C U M I3 I2 If Allerdyce Hopkins Wade Goodlicld Tackle End Guard End ded 65 yards around left end before he was nipped on the Baptists' 5 yard line. The beautiful run, aided by neat interference had the rooters on their feet. Tre- loar skirted the end for three more yards. Two to go and Kessler and Pierucci crashed the line for a touchdown! State 6-Redlands 0. When Barnett replaced Kessler, a deathly silence settled over the field. Bar- nett's toe thudded the oval, it struck the crossbar and bounded over for the extra point, State 7-Redlands O. By a recovered fumble in the second half, the Baptists scored but failed to convert when State's line crashed through to smother the conversion. Final score -State 7-Redlands 6. WHIT TIER COLLEGE With the score 13-6 in favor of State against the Whittier Poets, and about three minutes left to play, Whittier in two dazzling ylays moved to the State one yard line. Hickman was hurt and carriedoff the Held. Four downs to go. Then the Roadrunner eleven, led by Captain Johnson, superb on defense, gave one of the finest exhibitions of light ever. Whittier failed to gain on the first down and lost six yards on the second. On that play Davis was hurt but refused to quit. State was penal- ized for too much time out, bringing the ball back to the Roadrunner one yard line. The crowd was in a frenzy. State's line held and Whit- tier again failed to gain the coveted one yard on its own third and fourth downs. It was State's ball as the whistle blew! It was a glorious victory for the Olive and WVhite. Doped to lose to the Poets by Z5 points and outweighed Eve to ten pounds to a man, Santa Barbara played an alert, brainy game to win. Speed triumphed over brawn. Pierucci scored the first touchdown, while Hickman converted on a lateral. The second was on a blocked punt on Whittier's l8 yard line, but no conversion left the score l3- ,Ijjfyebjfjlg 6 in State's favor. Page Twenty-Tfwo

VDLUME XI Kessler ' Davis C lt Cutler F Ill: k Tackle T ll Tackle LA VERNE COLLEGE Badly clawed and with feathers ruffled, Santa Barbara State's Roadrunner came to life with a start, near the close of the first half and glared about, indignant and angry. With a 6-0 lead the La Verne Leopard licked its chops and backed away for another charge. But in its anxiety to advance, the Leopard transgressed one of the cardinal sins of football by passing in its own territory, Tuffy Treloar promptly inter- cepted the pass for State, while the Roadrunner smoothed its Amd ruffled feathers, and pealed forth a triumphant war cry. In exactly four plays with Hickman and Treloar carrying the ball State scored. Thus began a game with the Roadrunners playing real football, with the team functioning as a unit. Treloar returned a Southerner's punt to their 28 yard line, while Greeson sent a 25 yard pass to Hickman who carried it over. Much splendid passing by Greeson featured the last quarter, netting two more touchdowns, with a conversion to make the 25-6 score since La Verne was success- ful for one recovery of a fumbled punt on State's2yard line. UN1vE1isiTY OF REDLANDS One single point to the Roadrunners swung the score to 7 against the 6 of the University of Redlands, A small but peppy band of rooters spurred on the Roadrunners when they turned mudhens and subdued the Bap- tists on a sloppy field. The wet pig- skin hampered the Southerners, aerial attack, as the ball slipped out of the t receivers' hands.
