BLUEFIELD, W. Nov. 8 brilliant, tragic gridiron drama was enacted here in the rolling fnntriHIs nf the aicturesau Mountain State's scenic southern wrtor Saturday, when Bluefield's bold Biff Blue gridiron bat talions, the Wonder team, and an inspired Howard Bison ina chine battled to a scoreless tie while two thousand pairs) uriHenod eves looked breathlessly on and Kinir PlirviUs i Queen Sunshine reigned intermittently i the heavens ab6ve. linm irageay ana unceruiiii rave nmmcu muc uj pmc an shining stars in the football firmament were dimmed to shine mnrm this season in me persons of Herbert Cain, th brainy Bluefield 27 All American quarterback, and Jack Young, the fearless fullback of th clan Bison, Cain's leg was v.t,n tiH Younc's kneecap was fractured in the fray. Gridiron Sa Kaging Th Bturdy Big Blue craft, easily th favorite in the big tattle, unbeaten this eason but tlightly off it course by the Howard hurricane, will attempt to continue on its peril u' voyage toward its second national championship Saturday when they meet the powerful Institute eleven, conquerors of the Bisons, at "the Blue rendeivous.

Dramatic Moments Many Opportunity broke its usual rule and knocked three times for the Blues to cross the Bison goal line, eeh time with the Mountaineers within 10 yards of the final marker, but each time Bluefield lacked the vnh tn riush the cieskin over. with but SO seconds to eo in the first hlf. Wieeins. shifty Blue back hit for a sU yard gain from the Bison 10 yard line, and while the arm f(u bn wl vhich Mother Nature herself made for Bluefield resounded with Instv. vileadin cries lor a touchdown, tne timekeeper's fatal run announced that It was all over until the next stanza.

At that time, the ball was resting on Howard' four vard line: and the band played "That's fay Weakness Now." Blue field blasted two more golden opportunities to scor even in the shadow of the goal after two great for nearly three fourths of the length of the field, but the gallant Howard line withstood the repeated thrusts for a winning tally. Blue Star Discovered In Raya f.t Bluefield back, a gc of unusual brilliancy and promise was unearthed. Ray was aa welcome as a ray of sunshine in one of the rainy spells during the con test when he' clippvd off a couple of pretty end runs for substantial gains.

nessed. Both teams were brawny and brainy. Th Blue were colorful in their blue khaki football pants, and the Bison were attractive in their leather striped jerseys. The Big Blues' brilliant team oatplsyed the Bison invaders after the first quarter, but obviously missed the cool headed leadership of Cain, star quarterback, whose leg was broken" early in the fray. Both teams battled ardently for a victory.

Hiueneia is now preparing for Institute invasion and plans to give the Yellowjackets a warm reception. If the Blues can beat W. Ya. conquerors of Howard, and win the rest of their games, at the end of the season the coveted gilded crown will replace the helmet head of the Bir Blue football monarch. But can they beat Institute? Really, I dunno.

COMING CLASSIC Looming near and nearer on the ports horizon are claoie clashes on the gridiron. The game Saturday at Bluefield between the Blues and Institute is one of great titular importance. The A. T. Hampton battle Monday will probably decide the C.

I. A. At crown, and The contest between Institute and Hampton, leaders in the mad C. I. A.

A. race, looms as a tilt of major importance. It promises to be ore of the best games of the year. The day after the Hampton Institute game at Charleston, on November 15, Wilberforce will be host to the Virginia Union Panthers ard expect to give the visitors a rousin; home coming reception. We plan to take in both frames 'twould be awful to miss them.

The intersection! rlussii? at Cnlumhu between the nowerful More house Tide and the Bluefield Wonder eleven eromie to be a real tnriller. The Cleveland battle between Institute and Wilberforce will be an other bitter encounter which will probably be a never to be forgotten contest. i i The annual Howard Lincoln tilt at will attract its ususl thousands again this year. Lincoln has a better team than last year, and so the game itself should be more interesting.
