In a ragged game of football Friday evening, uie Ashland Griz zlies uowneu a much heavier, but slower team trom Lakeview to the tune of 4o-o. The game was filled with thrills, and replete witn bad breaks, fumbles and penalties, ft was me second game of tne season for both teams with both teams being unbeaten. The kickoff came at eignt o’ clock with Lakeview kicking off to Ashland. Janareau picked up the bail on his own 20-yard stripe and ran it back to the Lakeview 15, only to lose it on a fumble. Taking over the ball, the Honk ers attempted to march down the field by sheer weight, but the lighter Grizzlies held them back. * rom then on, play was back and forth, but with the Grizzlies de finitely outsmarting and outrun ning the heavier visitors. The play was marked by many penalties. Only once during the entire game were the visitors in scoring territory and then they ran the ball down the sidelines to go over the goal line standing up, but the referee called the ball back, nullifying the score, on a clipping penalty. It was the only time the visitors came near the scoring line. Ashland had two touchdowns recalled, one for off side play and one for holding. Early in the second quarter, seeing that the edge was definite ly against the Honkers, Coach Roberts, sent in the reserves, and most of the rest of the game was played by the second string. Music was furnished by the Lakeview band who had travel ed the 147 miles to accompany their team, the local band under direction of Jack Francis was also on hand for more music. During the half time period the Lakeview and Ashland twirlers marched on the field. This Friday the Grizzlies will play their first game away from home going to Klamath Falls. The Klamath Falls team was beaten in their first game of the season with the Lakeview team. Medford won their second game, played Friday night, on the home field with the team from Marsh field battling it out. Final score was 42-0.
