ANNUAL GRID CLASH . WITH OREGON AGGIES (Cootmued,froiu Page 1.) . SB —. «■■ v Kenua’s light weight and method of run ning allowed him to keep his feet where the heavier backs often measured thcii length in the mire before they were fair ly started. The Aggies had no offen sive, the few gains they made were cither on intercepted passes, or the open field running of their one ninn, Mc Kenna. In the final period after an Oregon fumble on the 45 yard line had given the .tggies the ball, the Y completed two luckily caught forward passes and with the aid of an Oregon five-yard penalty for offside placed the ball On Oregon’S rwo-yard line with four downs to put it over. Four successive times did the Aggies put every bit of fight they ever possessed into an effort to put the ball across the goal line and four successive times were they outfought by the Ore gon line and thrown back exhausted. In tb,e first buck which the Aggies directed through center of the Oregon line, they made a yard, in the next three bucks which the Aggies repeated in the same place, the Aggies advanced the ball about eighteen inches. Oregon fight again beat the Aggies. The defensive playing of the entire Oregon line was a feature of the game, with “Mart” Howard. “Spike” Leslie aud Scotty Strachnn. the schtillatlng stars. Howard as a defensive end is in a class with any on the coast and his playing in the Aggie game was a feature. “Spike” Leslie and “Scotty” Strachan stopped the Aggie line rushes like a stoue wall and both these husky linemen broke through the Aggie line smearing players before they were started. Captain “Bill” Steers, “.Nish” Chap man and Reinhart were the most, con sistent ground gainers for Oregon in the order named. Steers’ broken field run ning in returning punts and his kicking were up to his usual standard and he made several 15 yard returns of the Aggie punts. He tore through the Ag gie line for a 15 yard and 10 yard gain and made gains of 0 to 8 yards on sev eral instances. Steers is fast and starts quickly, so that he worked at a disad- j vantage on a muddy gridiron. Chapman I niade two good gains, one for 12 yards I on an off-tackle buck and one for 101 yards on a similar play; he also scored several shorter gains and played a vici ous, aggressive game on defense. Rein hart pierced the Aggie line for several good gains as djd Kiug, but neither of these two star backs were able to speed up .in the mud, a style of play in \Vhi9b. they both excell. Oregon’s chances to score were spoil ed in the initial period of the game when the lemon-yellow warriors by a series of line smashes by King and Steers had placed the ball on the 20 yard line, and then a 15 yard penalty for bolding was imposed. Steers was forced to kick when there only remained two downs in which to make the 25 yards. The game for the most part was played in the center of the field, neither) team being able to push the ball either way through the mire for any great dis tance, au exchange of punts would be about the best way to characterize it. A beautiful forward pass from “Bill” Steers to “Mart” Howard during the first few minutes of play at the opeipng of the game gave the crowd a» thrill, as did the two lucky passes in which the Aggies carried the ball to Oregon’s two yard line. Kasberger, McKenna and Hose featured in these two passes. Steers punted 45 yards out of danger after the Oregon line had held the Aggies in the last period. And although the Aggies rushed in an entire new baekfibld' in an effort to again push the ball up to the Oregon line they were unsuccessful and Orowell attempted a place kick from the 40 yard line which never left the ground. The game was slow and sluggish, due to the condition of the field and was not I j featured by the spectacular playing winch the other games Oregon has play ed in this year have scintillated with.
