A Splendid Victory
Continued from page r.
dian's chieftain.
The Indians won the toss and
selected the east side of the field,
giving them the advantage of a driv
ing wind, which blew straight down
the gridiron.
At exactly 2:45 Archie Libby
kicked off to State's 5 yard line, big
McCleary sprinting 20 yards, and on
the next lineup making 3 at tackle.
Coulson got 5 at end and McCleary
punted 40 yards ; Mt. Pleasant f urn
bled, and Burns was on
the ball like a shot. Hirshman
cracked off 3 at guard, Burns lost one
on an end try, Exendine tackling
hard, and McCleary punted 30
yards. Without trying to advance
the ball Mt. Pleasant punted 55
yards on the Indians' first line up,
Henry getting back 5. McCleary
gained 3 and Henry 1. McCleary
again applied his foot to the leather
for 40 yards ; the Redmen got
twisted up on the ball and Cyphers
did the rest. Wray gained more
ground with a 10 yard plunge at
tackle, Hirshman 3, McCleary 4,
and Coulson 2 at tackle. Then
Coulson tried a field goal, but the
ball went low, and the Indians got it
on their 15 yard line. After one
vain try at advancing, Mt. Pleasant
again punted, and the ball, striking
a gust of wind, sailed for 80
yards, going over Henry's head and
out of bounds. With the ball on
her 12 yard line things looked
black fur State. Hirshman, how
ever, came to the rescue with a
magnificent 30 yard plunge through
the Redskins' territory, and Mc-
Cleary added 3 more through tackle.
- For offside play by the Aborigines
State got 5 yards, and Maxwell
went around the end for 4 ; a double
pass then netted McCleary 3 more.
Coulson punted 25 yards against
the wind, Mt. Pleasant falling on
the slippery pigskin.- Mt. Pleasant
gained 5 and Hendricks 2 ; with a
THE STATE COLLEGIAN
stiff wind helping, Mt. Pleasant then
sent out a long drop kick which went
almost to State's line, where Hirsh
man took the ball and came back 15
yards. McCleary got a yard ; then
a fumble occurred and State lost 2
on Lubo's tackle. McCleary punt .d
30 yards to Mt. Pleasant. Then
came the Indians' only material run of
the day ; on a long pass, the fleet
Mt. Pleasant got away for 30 yards,
Henry's grand tackle on State's 3
yard line saving the day. But
Referee Sharpe's whistle had sound
ed for "holding," and the ball was
brought back and State given 15
yards. A short punt was
brought back 11 yards by Henry,
who then gained 1 more at end. A
penalty for holding now brought
the ball to State's 1 yard mark
Exendine, however, became too
anxious, and an offside penalty gave
State 5 yards. Hirshman hit cen
ter for 6, Coulson 3, Hirshman 3 ;
then Coulson 2, Hirshman 8, Mc-
Cleary 1 and Hirshman 5. Mc-
Cleary kicked the ball 40 yards,and
again the Indians decided to punt
on the first down. The reliable
Mt. Pleasant fell back, and then
came the ball, but "Mother"
Dunn was there when it arrived ;
the punt was blocked, and Maxwell
dropped on it. With the ball on
the Indians' 28 yard line, Henry lay
down coolly on the 35 yard mark,
the ball was passed, and McCleary's
foot sent over, truly and accurately
the most beautiful field goal that
State men have ever seen.
More happened in the next few
moments among State's rooters than
the world's great authors have ever
been able to describe ; and when
the smoke had cleared away the
score-board man chalked up—State
4, Indians, 0 ! A few moments
after Libby kicked off, the half
was over
