Marine Eleven Sloughs
Through Mud to 6-6 Tie
With Coast Guard Pilots
By PAUL HAINES
The San Francisco Coast
Guard Pilots steered a straight
course to the goal line ot the
Klamath marine loot ball eleven
midway through the final period
ol a hotly contested game Sat
urday iiliernoon on rainswept
Modoc Held to tic the Leather
necks, ti-b'. . .
A crowd of 2500 shivering
fans saw Bancer Hip a short
pass to Dravin, right end, m the
late stages of the tnird frame lor
a touchdown that put the ma
rines out in lioiu, u-u
when they threatened. The two
major threats were stopped short
of the goal line, however, and
the boys from the barracks and
Major Clyde Roberts, marine
coach, deserve a lot of credit.
Grid fans who attended the tilt
saw a wet, but well played ball
game.
The game was strictly a last
half aflair as the first two pe
riods developed into a kicking
duel between the two elevens.
A lot of good football was played
Saturday afternoon and the next,
and probably final game of the
ilrs.i. i ctr ...Mri half, season lor me marines is stnw
back chartering the course, thC;Uled for Sunday at ternoon, , no
t Jn-dolevcn came fighting Ivember 12, when the Fairfield-
coast guard eleven came fighting
back in tnc lourm quuuur mm
sailed to the Leatherneck nine
hi.tnm Hie tide was turned aside.
Nothing daunted, the Pilots
again came flashing back and a
pass, Tunnell to Richardson, was
good for 18 yards and a first
down on the Leatherneck 23.
From there Tunnell swept his
own right end and knifed down
Suisun Skymasters play a return
tilt with the Leathernecks on
Modoc field.
Summary:
First Quarter
Chapin kicked off to Tunnell
who returned to the Pilot 20. The
coast guard rolled up a first
down to their 32 but were forced
to kick on the next series ot
the sidelines lor the touchdown downs. Senter booted to Albrit
that deadlocked the game. Rob-1 ton on his own 20 and he re
erls' attempted placekick was . turned to the 32. The ball ex-
wide and low.
Tunnell took a terrific pound
ing from the marine forward
wall during the game and col
lapsed in the end zone from ex
haustion alter he had scored and
was assisted to the dressing
room. The colored boy carried
the ball three-quarters of the
time while he was in there, and
played a fine outstanding game.
The coast guardsmen threat
ened seriously in the first min
utes of the third period on a
drive that carried them to with
in the marine 10-yard line, but
Gelber fumbled at this point and
Hughes recovered for the Leath
ernecks on the two. Hughes
then booted a beauty from deep
in the end zone that carried 65
yards to the Pilots' 35 and car
ried the marines out of immedi
ate danger with it.
One outstanding feature of the
tilt was the punting of both ele
vens. The wet, slippery ball
didn't seem to. hinder Senter,
Pilot right end, or Hughes, Ban
cer or Mahan. These four grid
ders handled the kicking assign
ments and all got off some
splendid punts.
The soggy, slippery condition
of the field was a greater handi
cap to the Pilots than the ma
rines, as their attack depended
greatly on speed and passing.
Tunnell is a speed merchant but
has a lot of drive and was able
to rip off some nice gains despite
the wet gridiron.
:t Roberts, guard, and- Romano,
tackle, turned in fine defensive
jobs for the coast guard, as did
Westrum at left end. '..
For the Leathernecks, Byrne,
Darnell and Higgins played ex
ceptional ball in the forward
wall and LaPaglia, -Hughes, and
Bancer rang the bell in the ma
rine backfield.
In the last period, Mahan had
a perfect chance to intercept one
oi runneirs passes ana continue
for a touchdown gallop as there
was nobody between him and
the Pilot goal line, but the wet
ball eluded his grasp and it was
just another incompleted pass.
The marine eleven really stop
ped the highly vaunted Pilots
upon all except three occasions,
one when they scored and twice
changed hands several times,
with neither side able to gain an
advantage, and the initial period
ended with the ball in the Pilots'
possession on their own 21.
Second Quarter
The second stanza was much
the same story, with both ele
vens exchanging punts in an ef
fort to lorce a oreaK. no iirst
downs were made by either team
throughout the period, but on
the last play. Tunnell hurled a
pass to Westrum for a 10-yard
gain, only to have him fumble
and the marines recovered on
their own 42 as the gun barked
we end ot tne nan.
Third Quarter
and he ran back to his 38 as the
third period ended.
t ourin uuarivr
The Pilots were made of stern
stuff and rolled up two succes
sive first downs in rapid order
with Tunnell and Gelber han
dling the leather to put the ball
on tne marine 30.
Two plays picked up i yarns
and Tunnell lanced through
once more for 8 and a first down
on the Leatherneck 15. On two
plays Tunnell made it to the 9,
but on third down dropped 4
yards. On the last down, Tun
nell made a valiant effort, but
the marine forward wall rose up
to stop him on the 12 and take
the ball over on downs.
Mahan quick-kicked to Tun
nell on the midfield stripe and
the speedy colored boy to the
marine 40. At this point, Mahan
had his chance for a pass inter
ception that would have almost
undoubtedly resulted in a touch
down, but the ball got away
from him.
Tunnell heaved to Richardson
for a first down on the 23. An
other pass was incomplete and
then Tunnell swept around his
right end and knifed down the
sidelines for a touchdown, col
lapsing in the end zone. Roberts'
placekick was no good. SCORE:
MARINES 6, COAST GUARD 6.
The final minutes saw both
elevens strive desperately to con
nect with a pay-dirt aerial, to no
avail, and the gun sounded with
the ball in the Pilots' possession
on about the midfield stripe.
Score by quarters:
Marines 0 0 6 0 6
Coast Guard ,0 0 0 6 6
Officials: Marble Cook, ref
eree: Joe Peak, umpire; Harold
Shidler, head linesman; Dr.
George I. Wright, timekeeper.

33. Gelber made 7 and then
picked up 9 more for another
first down on the 17.

a first down. Two running plays
netted three yards and then Ban
cer passed to Dravin for 8 yards

down on the 2. Bancer lost a
yard and then faded back to

point failed. SCORE: MARINES

Belcastro
Meets 'Mask1
In Main Go
Tickets are going on sale now
for the rasslinc bouts Friday
night which bring together Pete
Belcastro, the Weed assassin,
and the "Grey Mask" in the
headline go.
This set-up is a natural, if
there ever was one. and Pete
vows he will make the "Mask"
climb out of the ring rather than
face the treatment ne will aisn
out. Pete is an exponent of the
famous surf-board hold, which
he originated. Once Belcastro
applies this painful hold to his
opponents, they are usually not
in a receptive mood for any
more grappling for quite awhile.
On the other hand, the hooded
heel continues winning h i s
trysts against any and all
comers, and will undoubtedly
rely on his savage head butts to
batter Belcastro into submission.
The services of Ernie Piluso
are being sought by Promotor
Mack Lillard for the semi-go,
and the supporting card will be
announced soon.
The armory, in all probability,
will be jammed to the rafters as
the match between Belcastro and
the "Mask" is what we have all
been waiting to see.
