Messrs, Hubhert. Billeter, Jordan, Noyes,, and Tollefsen best pleased the side- line critics with really excellent games of football. Except that 0 was the score for both the battling brutes, the game was not bad to watch. Mr. Warren Campbell, who later was Lo lead the freshman class, exhibited an aptitude for moving bis right foot in an upward direction. The ball ordinariily followed the impetus of the foot. The Nebraska “B team picked out the third quarter and proceeded to do a great many things, one of which was to score a touchdown which de- feated Kearney 6-0. The weaving Mr. Tollefsen and the plowing Mr. I'inck both found time to carry the ball across the chalk-line against the Colorado School of Mines and thus provide the mar- gin for a 12-7 victory for the Antelopes. The wind, the cold wind, which blasted over tile Kearney field, made the struggling teams plav good football to keep warm, Kenneth Daggett, a former Antelope quarterback, play- ed with the Colorado school hut naught availed against the Antelopes. A new species of Tigers, this time from Hays, invad- ed the Kearney stronghold, piled iif nineteen points, and retired southward with a piece of Antelope scalp. Mr. F. Finck. injured in the h.

Kearney, Orval and “Wallie” Wills. Fremont. Bruce and Howard Fitz. Lincoln, all flew the Blue and Cold for some time during the season. A little glue would have helped the Jamesinen at Chadron. The nonchalant Mr. H. Fitz slipped a cog as a pass dropped from his fingers in the end-zone while ’“Thistle” Hendrickson repeated the performance near the end of the first half. With more sticky fingers. Chadron held on to one pass which netted a touchdown and victory. Messrs. A. Stegeman, W. Patton. T. Thomas, and E. Cooley all saw action in this game. On a day of rest, with turkey in prospect, Peru- vian Bobcats snatched even the bacon from the Antelopes. Mr. Homer Hatcher, the opposing full- back, tallied no less than three touchdowns, while all Kearney’s twenty-six letter men failed to cross the final line. Baxter. Tollefsen, B. Fitz.

Look at tin ret ord as you will, two wins, one tie, and five losses are all that Fuller, Uehiinu. the twenty-six leltermen were able to chalk up.

Kearney stock ranked at par during the three- weeks preliminary training when Theodore L. James, coach, put fourteen lettermeri, numerous reserves and freshmen through all the antics that go with football. Perspiration flowed freely from the functioning pores of the athletes as they dropped pound after pound of the accumulated avoirdupois and with each drop of perspiration, the sod on the field became more verdant. Then came Doane. The Tigers scratched the sod, snarled a hit as Co-captains Jordan and Hendrick- son led the Antelopes to the field. Approximately two hours later, they had seen Mr. G. Tollefsen B.

The inimitable hip action of Mr. Tollefsen enabled him to turn in two long runs for the Antelopes. Messrs, Campbell, Noyes, Hubhert. Dnde Graham, Jor- dan and Fuller ably assisted in dulling the claws of the Tiger. A week later, the Cardinals to the Antelopes spoke in a loud voice, not at all as cardinals should speak. They said Be still! and the An- telopes were quiet. Even Professor Truitt and his band were silent when Omaha’s Hoover led his team to a 12-1) win over the proteges of Mr. James. Kearney s band was reported as being superior In that of the Municipal university. The parade on the local field added the Wildcats of W ayne on October I I.

With Kearney having the only cross-country team in the confer- ence, inter-collegiate competition was scarce for the long-winded athletes who think nothing of jogging three miles to remove that' tired feeling from stiff muscles.
