THE CHEMAWA AMERICAN.
TWO GAMES IN ONE DAY.
The Chemawa Indian team scalped
the Twenty-sixth battery eleven of
Vancouver barracks here Saturday
afternoon in a spirited contest, the
redskins routing their opponents at
every rush, says a dispatch to the
Portland Journal. The superiority
of the visitors was in evidence from
the kick-off, and the boys in blue
were kept busy guessing what play
was coming next. The soldiers played
a plucky,uphill fight, and were handi
capped on account of the slippery
condition of the field. A good sized
crowd witnessed the contest.
Captain Davis won the toss and
chose to defend the south goal. Van
kicked off to Davis, who ran the ball
in 20 yards. Then began dashes
through the line by Davis, Teabo,
Decker and Lucas, which ended in a
touchdown in less than five minutes.
The rest of the game was in repeti
tion of the first five minutes play.
Chemawa carried the ball over Van
couver's goal line four times in all,
failing to kick goal three times.
The features of the game were
Bensell's long end runs, Saunders'
plunging and hurding and the good
work of Captain Davis. Vancouver
made their yardage four times but
did not hold the Indians for downs
once. The teams did very little punt
ing, owing to . the high wind, which
made kicking uncertain.
The Indians' next game is with the
Willamette University on Thanks
giving day, followed by a game with
M. A. A. C. on the 19th of December.
Our third team defeated the Oregon
Mute School on the local gridiron
last Saturday forenoon by a score of
32 to 0. The Chemawa boys scoring
6 touch downs and kicked two goals.
Although our boys were outweighed,
they were much quicker and showed
better training than the visitors.
The Mutes, however, played a gritty
game and disputed every inch of
ground gained by their opponents.
Owing . to the late rains the grounds
were in a very bad condition.
