L ib ra ry U n iv e r s ity o f O®«on - W n o , Oregon * Loggers Fall Prey To St. Paul Bucks By Melvin Schwab A very confident band of Ver nonia loggers took to the road Friday night for the second time in as many weeks, journeying to St. Paul to take on that squad in league action and were soundly bulldngged, hogtied and shipped back to the tree country to learn the basic fundamental of football The Loggers going down to a 18-6 defeat looked anything but the team that engaged and defeated Knappa the week before. In all justice to the local eleven, how ever, they did meet one darn good team in the St. Paul eleven, which should probably go all the way in this league St. Pau! scored their first six points midway through the first quarter when they burst through Vernonia’s left tackle spot from their own 32 yard m arker for a flB yard run Try for point failed. In second quarter action the Buckeroos struck once again, this time on an interception on their own 40 which went all the way. Again, the try for point failed. St. Paul's third TI) came in third quarter action when they skirted the Loggers’ left end for a 73-yard run. Again, try for point failed In the last two minutes of the game the Loggers, in desperation, threw a long pass which was ga thered in by Mickey Borst for the TD. This action covered 45 yards. Try for point failed. In the first down department, the Loggers matched the Buckaroos, but couldn’t seem to keep a sus tained drive going. Their defensive weakness proved to be the margin by which the Buckaroos turned the tide in their favor. The Loggers will play their first game before the local crowd on the local turf this Friday night when they meet the Corbett ele ven. Corbett, which has a perfect record so far this season will be out to make it three in a row, but the Loggers should be able to bounce back and play the type ballgame of which they are cap able, and provide pently of thrills for the crowd.
