First Half is Close The first half of the Springville-Boxelder Springville-Boxelder contest was replete with thrilling football, and was extremely extreme-ly evenly contested. Boxelder led, 7 to 0. at the half, but was forced to ward off three serious threats of the Bed Devils. Coah Young's men S(ed their holt iu the second quarter, however, and they failed to make a first down in the second half, while Box-elder Box-elder marched down, the field with crushing force to score two more touchdowns and clinch the victory. Boxelder Imd a smooth-working team, and featured an - off-tackle smash with perfect interference. Hone and Hotter, two plunging hack field stars, crashed through the Bed Devil line time and time again during the encounter. Touchdowns Are Averted Springville decisively outplayed the northerners in the second quarter, quar-ter, and it appeared that they had excellent opportunity to register six points hy the drop kick route, but ; elected to try for a touchdown, which twice was narrowly averted by the Bees. Springville used a deceptive de-ceptive short pass- to gain most of their ground, and a triple pass method of ground gaining from scrimmage was a big asset. In the second half, however, Boxelder was j prepared for any oVnjsive thn't I Springville could show, and slopped ' I the short passes without gain frc-i frc-i qnenrly. Captain Hone of Boxelder was, (he outstanding' star of the game, and looms prominently as a candidate candid-ate for an all-stale position.
