Those skeptics who Bald that the Itoseburg players had passed their prime on the football field were sad ly mistaken, for yesterday's game displayed a team that plays real foot ball in a scientific and skillful man ner. The two teams, eveuly matched In all points, put up a game that kept two hundred fans keyed up with excitement and made tlein (orgut the drizzling, cold downpour which prevented many less arduous fans from attending the game. Dusenbark and Kttznian at guard displayed excellent line ability. They were particularly good on the defen sive and time and again the Cottage Grove players were thrown back for losses by the heavy Koaeburg line, which proved absolutely unbreak able, ltitsman proved a hard tackier and the brunts of the Cottage Orove backs were plainly audible when he connected with them.

Smith and Watson were all good ground retters. Time and again these back- fieldera plowed through for yardage and only desperate efforts on the part of the Cottage Grove playera saved further scoring. Rlehel did most of the kicking for the Elka and time and again punted for forty and fifty yards down the field. On sever al occasions he was forced to boot the ball from behind his own goal posts, but each time he succeeded In getting the pigskin hack to the mid dle of the field. Viifler the direction or Glenn Smith Itoseburg In the' Inst half played a strictly idefenslim game. Cottage Grove would work the hall down to about the twenty yard line by a ser ies or plunges and end runs, and then tile Kosuhurg line would hold them steady for downs and break up their attempted passes., i'; Itoseburg would then take the ball and Rlehel wuuld punt It back Into the muddy end of the field where Cottage Grove would again start their tirenglh-sapplng, disheartening march down" the field, only to be hnlted by Koseburg's Immovable lino whenever danger threatened. Time and again Itoseburg repented this performance content to rest upon the lead already giviied and playing strictly defensive, until the exhausted disheartened opponents heard the fi nal whistle blow with the score ttill standing In favor of the Itoseburg team. In spile of the fart that the rain fell In torrents and spectators were forced to wade thru mud and water to witness the struggle, there was a fairly good crowd. Itoseburg was particularly well represented and al most half of the fans were from this city. of mud and both teams were forced to play the old style, line-bucking, bone-breaking Btyle of football. Open playing was Impossible, and 111 spite of the fact that both teams are strong on passing, very little could be done along that line. The ball was slippery and hard to handle and both teama took good rare to hang on to the pigskin, and took few chances in trying to throw the elusive ball. The came opened with Cottage Grove kicking off. The teams met In aboui the center of the field, and the first quarter was a pretty strug gle. In the last of (he first quarter Roseburg obtained a good advan tage. After a aeries of line plunges and line blocks In which the Klka had advanced the ball to about the 40 yard Hue, two forwaid passes were completed. The first netted about ten yard and the sennd added about fifteen yards. The latter pass was one of the real sensations or the game. Okey Taggert, Roseburg end, waa on the receiving end and with a head long dive, which put his nose In the mud snd his reel in the nlr. ho hooked the riylng ball out or the titer. Just before it splashed Into the mud and water of the wet field. The Itoseburg backs continued the drive and the first quarter ended with the hall on Cottage Grove's three-yard line. In the opening of the second qusrter. Glenn Smith car ried the ball over for the only touch down of the game. An attempt to ronvert the goal by a place kick fail ed and the score stood to 0. The game settled back to a straight old-slyle football fight, with Itoseburg strictly on the defensive. The Cottage Grove guardsmen were determined to overcome the lead and time and again forced the ball down Into Hoseburg's territory, hut the steady rock-wall line of the local team prevented them from These two teams will play again. on Armistice Day In Itoseburg, and loca preven ea them iron, Slower, may be assured scoring, and It eh el . heavy Iw ot al- of , ,, w 0 al0,tflly t,e ways got the ball back out of the . . . ways got the ha dnnger zone.
