I jg was had 'Q' ww l vz ,M after 7 'X HUMECOMING GAME The Homecoming Game of 1946 was one that will long be remembered by the students and the many alumni who came back to the Campus of Achievement to watch the Big Red Team achieve victory. Iewell was predicted to be the underdog, being outweighed and outnumbered both in the line and the backfield. Two thousand madly cheering spectators witnessed the Cardinal classic of the year and saw an inspired Iewell eleven outhght, outrun, and outpass their powerful foes from Kansas. It was an evenly matched tussle in the initial period, but lightning struck after Five minutes of 28 the second quarter when the Cardinals powered 60 yards for their touchdown. Robb's off-tackle smashes, Skeen's end runs, and gains by Short, Benedict, Whitworth, and quarterback Gargotta set up the score, which resulted from a pass from Short to Hyder. Ray Kilpatrick's perfect point-after- touchdown gave Iewell a 7-o lead, which they held until the half. An aroused Baker team came fighting back in the third period and soon scored on a 38-yard run. The conversion attempt hit the iron bar of the goal posts and the score stood at the end 7-6.
