M.H.S. WINS FIRST GAME
Defeated Uhrichsville 65 to 0
ITS
but to That the
Entire Credit Cannot be Laid
Coach Fugate’s New, Brilliant Passes
Worked Without a Hitch
Although Uhrichsville was represented by a team of small
boys, it was the general opinion, Saturday afternoon, when
The home team outweighed the Uhrichsville players by several pounds and showed much greater skill in their playing due to their training. The new passes, which to spectators would seem complex and almost impossible, worked out as regularly and smoothly as clock work.
Time and again, Heyman, playing right half, ploughed the line, but his plays were more spectacular as he dodged in and out through the numerous little Uhrichsville boys who were trying to play catch with him. In dodging football players it is doubtful if anyone could have dodged more men than did he.
Kester, fullback, was strong on plunging. Although he was given wonderful support and interference by the line players, when “Jake” could not see the hole where he though it should be, he made on to suit his ideas.
Miller, playing left half, played his first game with
Captain Arther, also quarterback, came in for his turn time after time. Once, during the first quarter, he saw the ball roaming aimlessly about the field and after sticking it under his arm where the Uhrichsville players would not be likely to see it, walked to the goal line and made a touchdown.
Stoner, Rudy, Wagoner and Arther are the men whom the score keeper credits with making single touchdowns. Heyman leads the list with three. Kester and Miller follow with two each.
The majority of scores were made during the first
quarter. Uhrichsville won the toss up
and chose to receive.
Practically the whole game was played in the same way.
All the new material on the team showed up in fine form. Albright, a new player, picked up the ball on a kickoff and carried it past several tacklers for over fifteen yards. It was the first time he had ever been in a football game.
