About The Chemawa American (Chemawa, Or.) 19??-current | View Entire Issue (Nov. 1, 1913)
THE CHEM AW A AM ERICAN 35 fine fettle and had plenty of speed, which had been instilled into the team by Coaches Smith and Sanders. The orders were to play the College boys a fast and snappy game. Walker, Downie, R. Adams, Scowlole, Wiggins, Lane, Patrovich, and Nix, proved express locomotives to the visitors, as they could not be checked in their long runs. Once Scowlole caught a kick-off on his own five-yard line and forgot to stop running until he had run 90 yards* only to face a large pool of mud and water, so he took a plunge, with eleven Quakers gathered about him. The first half ended with the score 46 to nothing. Chemawa sent eleven men into every play and every man was a tiger on defense. The ends went down fast on punts, the team tackled well. The punting by Downie, and his good generalship, easily makes him the star of the day, while Walker was a close running mate. In the second half Chemawa put in four second string players, and they, too, not only sang in the chorus but were into every play and let the College players down with only three first downs, while they scooped in 45 points. Pacific’s big back field players could not penetrate the stone wall line of the Indians, and the team never threatened to score. Mr. Loos took the east stands with his war paint, tom toms, and band, while Mike MacLeod lead the cheering section in the west stands. Mike was at his best leading the girls with their songs and yells, while the band rolled sweet strains of music across the field. These two fea tures alone were well worth the price of admission. The line-up: Chemawa, Wiggins, (V. Adams), LK; Nix, (McDon ald), LT; McDonald, (Fields), LG; Paul, C; Johnson, RG; Patro vich, R 'l; Lane, (J. Johnson), RE; Downie, Q; Walker, (Lane),RH; R. Adams, (Walker), LH; Scowlole, F. Referee, Smith, Chemawa; umpire, Marshall, Newberg; head linesman, Sanders, Chemawa.
