8 SUNDAY MORNING THE SHREVEPORT TIMES SEPTEMBER 30. 192? Gentlemen Triumph In First Grid Game of Season On Local Stadium I First Pigskin Contest of Season Thrills Pulsate Down Line As Fort Worth Captures Third Dixie Series Contest i SpecitI to Tb Times, New Orleans, Sept. Stoner, pitching hero of the Texas league eaon and star member of the Panther staff, threw his teammates a trifle nearer to the Dixie championship here Saturday by hanging his second defeat on the New Orleans i'clicatis. The score, .1 to 1, was identically the same as the first contest Stoner won last Tuesday at Fort Worth. Stoner, however, had a man's sized battle on his hands to turn hack the Southern association champions.

Only his steadiness car-' ried the Texas league entry through. V. iLJl A- I 1. McMillinites Too Strong for Game Team From Arkansas; Hot Weather Big Handicap to Play By JOE R. CARTER Tlie maroon and white of Centenary college still floats triumphantly on the breeze of the football world, The colors of the Shreveport institution nf learning were dipped yesterday by the Gentlemen in defiance of defeat before the Hender-son-Rrown Reddies, of Arkadelphia, but the crew from the Kazorback state were not ecjual to the task of taking hold and drag-King them lower in defeat.

Today the local flag flic high again, and under the score of "Louisiana Industrial institute 0, Centenary 30," written at Lafayette, Sept. 22, is "Centenary 40, llenderson-Hrown 3," for that was the total of the battle Saturday afternoon. It marked the opening game of the season on the home ground and was witnessed by at least 3,000 spectators, Cats Get Ede Hon he made in practice. Ha FORT WORTH. AB.

Gridiron Spirit at SARAZEN DEFENDS PRO GOLF LAURELS DEFEATING HA GEN rort orcn was ouinn, a uut Stoner scattered tha blows through nine stanzas, allowing a pair in the aaeond and two more in tha eighth. Stoner was taaily tha stsnd-out man of tha game.

His mates, Tavener in particular, played jam-up bull, Ola fielding at times extracting ma moundiman from critical poaitiona. The Panthers got to Lefty Winn in tha first inning, and before Manager (jilbert could get Whitakcr ready to relieve him tha visitors shot throe doubles into tha crowd and had a two-run lead. It served them well, for thereafter the J'elicani battling all they knew how could not over-coma tha handicap. Whitaker pitched six and two-third innings, allowing the other aeore, end Dixie Walker worked the last two, Whitaker being taken out of the box for a pinch hittor, Calvo Starts Fireworks. Calvo, first man up, shot a double Into the right field crowd, and Whitaker grabbed a ball to start warming up.

Sears then doubled above the first base line, scoring Calvo. Edington fanned, but Kraft hoisted a double into the left field seats. Whitaker relieved Winn and walked Hoffman, but got the next two hitters. Fort Worth's third tally came in the second inning, when Tavener, first up, went safe on Bogart's error. Stoner was called out on strikes.

With Calvo gone, Sears doubled into tha crowd. The visitors rarely threatened thereafter, three rapid-fire double plays killing chances for them to score in the third, fifth and sixtu frames. Pelicans Had Chance. New Orleans had six different enances but there was too much Stoner in front of the Pels. Bogart and Gilbert singled in the third, with none down, but Henry, Tucker and Ewoldt were atopped in their tracks.

Again in the fifth Schick was on with one down, but was left standing. Bogart doubled to start the sixth, but didn't move off second base. Schick doubled in the seventh and remained where he stood. The lone Pelican tally came in the eighth after two were down. Henry shot a double into the left field crowd and Tucker dropped a single in laft, Henry scoring.

In the ninth the Pelicans had Foss leading off with a single, but Schick hit into a double play, killing off the Tally. Texans Great J. he lexans, claiming to have 850 Teopie here, put on the greatest root-ng bee that New Orleans has ever witnessed. Cowbells and noise-making instruments of every description were brought into play. They kept their stuff going at top speed from start to finish.

Shortstop Tavener and Stoner, mostly Stoner, were heroes for the visitors, tha two players being car ried off tha field upon shoulders of admiring fans "from where the West begins." Led by the Police band and Amon G. Carter, the Texans paraded around the field in bullrine fashion after the game. It lasted for full 30 minutes, Several members pulling six-shooters firing off blank cartridges. For the moment Pelican fans thought 'that there was a real shooting scrane, dui wnen toia me snots were blanks remained at the bail yard to see the performance Visitors Jubilate. The Texans paraded throutrh the treets.

Few took the trouble of going to dinner. Men and women -marched along the streets munchine ity of the Gentlemen, but the contest was lagged in apots. Summer weather crept in yesterday, and under the hot aun the gridiron warriors melted out. It seemed to work greater hardship on the Shreveport crew, who, in the majority, tip close to 200 pounds, but neither side waa able to keep players in the game any length of time. Under the heavy charging of the Centenary machine and the attempted blocking of the Reddies, the players wore out.

Time was called frequently and almost three hours were consumed in completing the contest. For their second game of the season the Gentlemen looked well. Their playing waa marked though by frequent penalties, and approximately 300 yards were lost as punishment for either holding, roughing, or being off-side. These- penalties cut heavy in the scoring and some of the Reddies were given bit of rough treatment at times, but it was probably due to anxiety and the guilty ones drew punishment for their offense. Hogue, of the Gentlemen, drew a severe penalty for slugging, being banished from the game and his team penalized 60 yards.

At the time the Gentlemen were within the shadow of the enemy's goal line and the ruling of the officials put the pigskin back on Centenary's 40-yard line. The CeAtlemen yesterday lacked polish in many spots, but it was evident they showed better in their first game this year than ii their initial performance of 1D22, when they tackled the Marshall college team. They faced a squad yesterday that has been working together for a few seasons, and very familiar with all the rudiments of the game. "Midgets" Star. Centenary and Henderson-Brown presented an array of young gianta.

but it took the midgets of the squad to furnish the thrills of the battle. "Red" Lawrence and White, the light men of the McMillin brigade, and Byron Crane, the baby of the Arkansas crew, danced in the spotlight. In Arkansas they call Henderson-Brown the school with the heart in it. In their team yesterday Crane aeemed to be the "heart" of the squad. All of Coach Haygood's men fought hard, but the plays on both ths offense and defense seemed to be "pumping around Crane." This 165-pound youngster, who hails from Missouri, thrilled the spectators with his work.

His dodging and slipping of tackles, and broken field running brought the crowd to his side. When he finally left the game, just before the close, those 3,500 fana in the stands gave him a lusty cheer. "Two more Cranes and there might have been a different tale," was the consensus of opinion. Crane is a freshman at his school and is play ing hia first year of college football. "Red" Lawrence made his mark.

Ha did not re-main in tho game very long but he accounted for hie every minute of battle. Twice he crossed tho enemy'a goal line and several times he made great gains. His beeit performance was an interception of a forward pass on hia own 40-yard line anrl a chase down the field for a touchdown. A short time before that Red had skirted four yards around right e-nd to score a touchdown. It made the second acore for the Gentlemen for tho first marker of the game was made by Lettier on a 15-yard run around thn ind.

The Gentlemen depended mostly on line plunges and end-runs fur their gains. Toward the clone of the battle they tried the "Ur-route." Ther iniiwed at If-ast four passes before) they finally completed a 80-yard toss, White to Hilden. It was a great play and a good catch and evened up for the few misses. A touchdown resulted from the pass for Henderson-Brown wa penalised five yards on tho next play, bringing the ball to tan.va.H llfia and XVhlta ncr.red with an end-run. "White-y" lived up to the reputa- showed skill at aide-stepping and displayed a wonderful change of puce when ha skirted around right ond for the first touchdown ha mude.

Ilfnly ruining. Ilenderson-Hrown scored but four first downs. Two were trained by penalties, one by a furward pans anu anotner on line plays and an end run. Twice they showed we-11 on defense holding Centenary to downs and forcing them to kick wnen a touchdown looked certain The Reddies probably aavad themselves from another (ouch- down by forcing a punting gam several times, guile often they punted and forced Centenary to return me kick, and In two exchanges they were tha galnera by a few yards. Aa a wholo though, the punting was about eoual.

The Reddies pulled one surprise that awoke Centenary to tha danger lurking neur them when they lined up -punt rormatioir' and then started an end-run. It wag while the ball was resting close to Henderson-Browns goal post Crane called for tha ball a.nd aa tho Gentlemen fell back to await the kick. Crane dashed down tha side of tha field and gained 20 yards. The Gentlemen were orobablv handicapped by tha losa of two first string men early in the game. Mexico Farrell had just "warmed up" whan he was forced to retire with an in jured shoulder.

Ha had made thraa of tha first four downs whan ha was forced out. Jim Weaver took sick in tha early part of tha game and had to be retired. Tha other losa was Hogue, who was banished for slugging. During his short stay in the game Hogue figured in sev eral good tackles, and made one or two big gains. He blocked a punt on the 30 yard line, and aa tha ball rolled back he recovered it on tha 15 yard line.

It was in a scrimmage on Henderson-Brown's 10 yard Una that ha waa penalized for slugging The ball waa carried back 50 yards. Cal Hubbard, the 260 pound tackle, played a great part in the defense work of his team. Although tha biggest man on tha field, Hubbard quite often beat his team mates to the rear of the enemy'a Una and made tackles. The heat had its ef fect on Hubbard, too, and ha had to ba relieved early. Henderson-Brown Una showed well.

Deloney at center was aggres siva and remained through tha great er part of the game. Their greatest play was a drop kick from tha 85 yard line by Crana and gave them their only score. It came in tha sac ond quarter and was made from difficult angle. Once later a drop kick was tried but this time it missed its mark. Summerville, captain, was a hard worker.

He backed up his line on defense in nice fashion. Just before the final whistle sounded Centenary attempted to add to the score via the air-route. They tried several passes that failed and just aa the game ended White tossed the ball over the line and it was caught by Hubbard. Tha latter at the time was "playing was not eligible to receive the oval and the play didn't count. McMillin and Haygood used all their reserves.

Tha battle was hard fought -and for an opening game was considered good. The McMillinites now have one big fault to eliminate the cause of the penalties. They must be erased. BAYLOR WINS. Uperlal The Times.

With the opening of college the football squad of Louisiana Tech has been increased by several good men, and the Bulldogs are working hard to get in condition for their opening game with Little Rock college at Ruston, Octo- ber 6. "Old Man Gloom" has visited 1 the Bulldogs' camp however, as a re-! ult of injuries to several of the squad. Warner, a promising back, i hag been obliged to lay off with a bad knee injury, thai may keep him off the squad for some time. Jones, tackle, and Hatcher, halfback, are on the injured list, and several of the old men are alow getting into condition. As a consequence.

Coach Deiti ia uncertain aa to his lineup in the opening game. A fait, tricky, aggregation, although rather light for a college team, will probably face Little Kock college on tl.a sixth. Walker, Anders, Lawrence, arid Belk are working out as fullbacks. For halfbacks, Hollis, Hogg, Whitman, Hawthorne, MoGee, Hatcher, Tiadale, Warner, and DeLoach are contesting for bertha on the team. With Austin, Reed, Mathis, Tomlin, Wilson, Braiil, and P.

E. Walker filling the wing positions; Linton, Jones, Talbert, Phillips, Fleischman, and Talbot, brother of Tulane'a captain battling for the tackle positions; Wise, Cousana, Hayes, Welch, Pee-den, Gaar and Williamson working as guards; Bridewell, Webber and Pankey at center, and Sentell, Willis and Winn, directing the eleven, competition ia sure to be keen for poaitiona on the 'Varsity. Every game on the schedule promises to be a tough at.ruggie, and the Bulldogs will have to huatle every minute during the Benson to offset their lack of weight against elevena that will probably outweigh them. 0 Tulane Defeats Southwestern in Easy Fashion Special ia Tlie Times.

In what proved to be little more than a workout today at Tulane atadium, the football eleven of Tulane university In its first game of the season defeated Southwestern Industrial col lege of Lafayette, by a acora of 20 to 2. The game was featured by much fumbling and substitutions, each team sending into the game at different times practically every candidate on Its roster. There was hardly an individual atar. Tulane scored practically all of her points on straight football.

At times Southwestern threatened with the forward pass, wWch the west Louisiana, college team repeatedly attempted. At one time Tulane'a goal waa in Imminent danger and it was here that the Olive and Blue line proved formidable.
