The
CHEMAWA ROMPS OVER BABY BADGERS, 20—6
Unleashing a speedy offense and a strong defense,
our football team romped away with Pacific Univer
sity’s Baby Badgers here last Friday afternoon 20 to
6. Working in perfect harmony with its line, our
backfield ran around the ends and slipped through
the line for big yardage and their first touchdown just
three minutes after the first kick-off. The Baby Badg
ers elected to receive and on their first running play
our linemen swarmed through and onto the ball carrier
like a thousand bees for the first five-yard loss. Right
away Pacific decided to let someone else do the ball
carrying and Franklin, who called a heady game for
our team, soon had the team marching goal ward.
Wallace Hosie and Warren Wilder, halfbacks, and Roy
Meachem, our minute but line-smashing fullback,
functioned so nicely that they reeled off one first down
after another. “Lefty” Wilder accounted for nine
teen of our twenty points, having scored all three
touchdowns and completed one pass for an extra point.
Much credit goes to the line and the good work of the
backfield for the defense was so completely fooled that
Warren took the ball over each time almost untouched.
Dowd Franklin scored the other point by a perfect
drop kick. Behind a splendidly formed interference
Franklin made the prettiest run of the game wThen,
standing on his own goal line, he carried the ball from
punt formation for forty yards. On the next play he
threw a twenty-yard pass to Albert Miller, who grab
bed it and went to the Badgers’ five-yard line before
downed.
From the first play our line had Pacific’s offense
stopped. The way they treked through was just a
pattern they followed throughout the afternoon. Cap
tain “Biff” Jones and George Thompson, our two
scrapping tackles, set a heavy pace, but they had
five willing followers in Albert Miller and Clifford
Case, ends; Lonnie Weeks, center; Harry Archambeau
and Howard Churchill, guards. Those seven were
after Badger hides and they got ’em.
With each
game they have exibited more speed and power and
last Friday they moved forward as a unit and kept
our goal completely out of danger until the final ten
seconds to play, when Charles Motschman went in to
relieve Franklin who bad to be taken from the game
early in the third quarter on account of a shoulder in
jury, heaved the pass that was intercepted and was
carried down a clear field for Pacific’s only score.
Except for Franklin and Meachem the team came
out of the game in good shape.
It will be three
AM ERICAN
weeks before Franklin will be ready for action.
The juniors were dropped from their high station
in life last week for their first wolloping of the season
at the strong hands of the sophies. The way those
sophs put the skids under the juniors was not slow.
What a game! All predicted that before the season
was over some real football would be played and this
game furnished everything. Though Little Swallow
and his power house was stopped they never stopped
trying. It was “Robare” Thomas that cracked the
sizzling juniors. His nicely-timed passes and runs and
varied attack spelled demise for the juniors to the
tune of 19 to 0.
Though the fifth and seventh graders played first
they didn’t play second fiddle to anybody. Theirs was
a battle royal and the fifth graders made the seventh
run a thousand miles to win 12 to 6.
Friday the Hotshots will play the Woodburn high
team at Woodburn. This week the seniors will meet
the freshmen and the fifth and eighth graders will
tangle.
Our next big game is with McMinnville high at Mc
Minnville on Tuesday—Armistice Day. After a ten-
day rest our team should be ready for a hard game.
BOY SCOUTS
Since school opened and a new system has been
adopted we have been late in getting underway. On
Tuesday night the different troops met and organized.
Troop 8 assembled in the Brewer Hall reading room,
Scoutmaster Mr. Francisco having charge. Dr. Sisco,
Troop Committeeman for the troop, was present. A
number of new candidates were present. Charles De
Poe assisted.
Troop 7, under Mr. Henderson, met at the Industri
al building. Ted Allman, one of our boys attending
Willamette University, will act as Assistant Scout
master.
Troop 5 is just at present without a Scoutmaster on
account of Mr. Turner, former Scoutmaster, having
other duties. Assistant Scoutmaster Matthew John
had charge of the meeting. This troop met in the Mit
chell Hall reading room. Three patrols were orginized,
names of patrols and the Troop colors selected.
Added to the troops is what are called “Cub Scouts. ’ ’
Boys who are 9, 10 and 11 may be Cub Scouts; a good
many of the small boys have joined.
With the interest manifested by the new boys in
Scouting it looks as though we will have a good year.
Many of the older scouts will be earning Merit badges.
A $25.00 Silver and gold plated bugle has been of
fered as a prize to the best bugler in our area; contest
to be on soon. Scouts Walter Majhor and Bennie
Sanderson are working for the prize. We hope they
will bring the “bacon home.”
