Show ' : SPORTS II Ml MM t After a week and a half of secret practice the two senior elevens of All Hallows college met again in a contest for football supremacy on Tuesday j afternoon. The day was bright and clear, with little or no wind and that crispness in j the air that makes the young blood course freely and sets the young nerves a tingling. The faces of both elevens wore a look of dogged determination, for the first team had its laurels to preserve and the second team had its former da-feats da-feats to atone for. Captain Fanning won the toss and took the western goal. Soon the leather came sailing through the air into the arms of left end, Wolohan. He'made a noble effort but the stubborn resist- ance of the seconds held him down to ten yards gain. Then followed a few tellSng plays on the other now a long run netted fifteen yards, strain onlv a paltry yard and a. half could be made. Finally, when near the goal, a drop kick was tried but failed. This gave the ball to the seconcis for a kick on the ten yard line. Again the first team worked up slowly and surely to the other goal and again another kick turned the ball over to the seconds. Them came their turn. Down" the field yard by yard they went,- tearing through the line and around the ends, making no star plays, but short and continued gains until, when twenty yards from the goal line. Tom Canning was carried around the left end, broke from the crowd, straight around Captain Cap-tain Fanning, who sought to stay him, and made a touchdown. He failed to kick the gcal. This ended the first half. At the opening of the second half the first team kicked to Quarterback Dewey, and after three downs the ball was in their possession. Two bucks by Lefthalf McKenna. made a touchdown in three minutes after play began. McKenna Mc-Kenna got the ball at klckoff and by clever dodging brought it back past the centre. Four or five more plays and Ieft Tackle Gallagher went over for 'the second touchdown. The ball came to Robert Canning on the klckoff. He ma d four or five yards before biting the dust. Then the second team were treated to a surprise. The quarter back kicked high to the right and Captain Fanning:, breaking out along- the line, srot the ball and almost before the second sec-ond team were aware of it had it between be-tween the goal posts. One more touchdown did the first team, make just at the last minute of play, but failed as in every other instance in-stance to kick goal, so the score stood 20 to 5. Although the second team was beaten, it still is willing to meet any school team of its weight (135 pounds), in the state. DEFI TO ANY OF THEIR SIZE. A quick, snappy and quite scientific little game was played on All Hallows College campus last Saturday. The small boys, "West Wind Buckers," of All Hallows College, have prided them-.selves them-.selves on being the most scientific school team of their Size in town, and they found willing and able antagonists in the Lowell Juniors last Saturday. Six points s-ored by All Hallows in the first half tells the tale of woe. All Hallows' Hal-lows' superior team work, with quick j sure tackles, won the laurels. Lowell's j ends were somewhat stronger, and in mass plays they were better pushers, being about six pounds heavier. Successful quarterback punts, fol-! fol-! lowed by plucky resistance, kept the little blue boys' goal in comparative safety. Lowell came near goal once, when the ball was lost on downs. All Hallows' midgets practically sacrificed a touchdown in the second half by a. massed quarterback punt and by yielding yield-ing ten yards on a foul tackle aboU twenty yards from Lowell's goal in the last five minutes. Individuul play was not so much in evidence as good team work, but Flvnn, Bonner, Cannon, Rice and Bartholo mew deserve special mention among the All Hallows men, while Captain Hansen and Hampton were the stars of the Lowell aggregation. The line-up follows: All Hallows. Lowell. Bartholomew L. E Young Cloonan L. T Cooper L. Moran L. G Clayton W. Moran C Hoggan Thill R. G Roxborough Largey R. T Worthen Cannon R. E Armstrong Flynn Q. B Hansen Hayes L. H. B Raddon Bonner R. H. B Hampton lii'1 F. B Gard,iner The victors want to meet any school team averaging eighty-four pounds. Youngsters Win Again. John Tallon, the famous quarterback of the All Hallows team, has returned from Park City- and vill probably enter the High school within the next few days. Tallon will probably play end on the High school team, and he will prove a great acquisition, for he is a hard, aggressive player. He is several pounds heavier than last year, and ought to be strong enoujrh to hold down almost any position on the line. As a conseouence- the school teams are ail claimine that he will play with them. NOTES OF ALL HALLOWS. On Sunday last, Mrs. P. Thill of Murray, Utah, visited her two sons, On Monday Miss B.
