3 CITY HIGH GIVEN SCARE BY JASPER Locals Find Real Grid Team "Against Them -Cop in Last Period. Chattanooga Timet Special. SOUTH PITTSBURG, Tenn, Oct. 20. -Surprised at finding themselves opposed by a real team after reporta had told of a disbanded squad, and periaps a little overconfident, the Chattanooga City High school team waa outplayed, but pot outlucked by the Marion County High team at Sooth Pittsburg today, and because luck was on their aide could scratch' ouf a victory by the margin of one lone touchdown 7 to 0, Peak running for ten yards and the touchdown in an off-tackle play.

Just before the winning marker a forward pass. Peak to Kelly, which was completed for a distance of twenty-fivo yards, put the visitors within scoring distance. Peak kicked a goal from placement to complete thf seven points. City tvas stopped dead by the defense of the Marion gridders at first, and before the game was over had used every trick they could find in their attempt to win the' game. The touchdown was not made until the third quarter and during the first half the Chattanoogans were thoroughly scared, for on the basis of what thejeams had dqne in the first half, Marion looked likely to garner the winning po.nts before -tha close of the game.

The South Pittsburgers were no heavifr than tbe visitors, but, having their entire first string line-up in contrary to reports sent out before the game, they showed stuff for which Chattanooga High had not prepared. Peak, Capt. Marshall gnd Boyd were the outstanding stars for the winners, while for the locals Tidman and Willis did tbe best work. Tidman was consistent player and was the real star of the game.

MACON, Oct. 20. Unleashing attack in the last half pltely surprised the Moccasins, Mer cr universitys battling Baptiste this afternoon defeated Chattanooga at the alumni field In the annual grid dash be-Keen the two teams. The score was 18 to 3. A touchdown cam in sack of the last two periods.

The Mercer backs, given brilliant anrport by. the front line of defense, plowed through the Nooga -line time after time for neat gains. Shorty Foore led the attack, his flashy wort netting two Lewis Reese getting the other. It was Reeses first game on the Mercer varsity And the little Augusta youngster. In the few minutes which he played, made up for practically every minute which he had lost since the beginning of the season.

The Chattanooga defense couldnt check him. The Baptists played a weak game the first period, allowing the visitors to run roughshod through their line. The 'Nooga ns were not strong enough take advantage of the opportunity which was offered them, and, as a result, the quarter ended with, neither side scoring. In thq second period Kid Cecil and his men tightened up the least bit and had little trouble In sending Shorty Poore down the, field on a series of line backs and end runs for a touchdown. The third period saw just a repetition of the same piny a which were used to such telling effect in the second quarter, only Lewis Iteese, instead of Shorty Poqre, was the young fellow upon whose shoulders the burden rested.

Ileese hit the line five straight times for long gains, effecting five'-first dowtis on eight plays. The final drive carried him from withia a short distance of the goal jline to the point of the victory behind theposts. Both times Consuello Smith failed in-the attempt to kick goal for the extra point. Poore relieved Reese at the beginning of the last quarter and- continued his splendid work. After a bit of aenal warfare Poore twice more got his anxious hands on the pigskin, carrying it across the goal line on the second play.

Rice failed tef kick goal for the extra point and scoring for the day was over. Only two minutes remained in which to play. Chattanooga lone tally, fieldgoal from drop kick by Anderson, half, came in the third period, after the visitors had completed a series of forward passes which had carried them more than 50 cards down the field. The ball was on Mercers 25-yard line when the kick was made. Capt.

YALE BEATS BUGENELL IN ERRATIC CONTEST NEW HAVEN, Ocf.

20. By scoHng two touchdowns in the last two periods Bucknell surprised Yale here today, bolding the Bulldog in a ragged game, 29 to 14. Late in the third period Bucknell opened up a brilliant forward passing attack which swept Yale off its feet. Foster, of Bucknell, threw long forward pass to Diehl for 40 yards and the first score. In the last minutes of play Foster threw two passes, putting the ball on the 2-yard tine.

'Diehl took the ball over on the last dotfn. Yale scored two touchdowns in the first period as a result of a 36-yard pass, Stevens to Ilnlman.

Everybody Knows Friedman's V- Fight Mars Closing Period and Baylor, Off Stride, Per-I aits Score by Fumble." i Thera Is joy in the Baylor camp today, "'and the joy is rightful and has definite grounds, for yesterday the Baylor school- team; playing the beat prep school 4 football team seen on a local gridiron, this year, upset gU calcula- tions, proved one of their co-eglled weak spot to bo strong, put alt the dope on their aide for th coming game with Central and Won a crushing victory yver Birmingham Ensley ftchool bja score of 32 to T.

Most complete of th triumph of the Baylor team was the ahowjng of their light lint), which had been called the weak spot of the team and the point at which Central High probably strike in hopea of a victory next Satur day. The line held did more than hold, for time -after time they brokq through the stufdy Birmingham forward a to throw their man without gain or for And one time, to make their-triumph complete, they held when the hall was Ensleya on the Baylor one-yard line held so tight that when the -ball finally went over to the, Baylor team on downs it had moved scarcely an inch. Only one man could break through the forward defense of the locals, and that man, Mayhew, was easily the individual ktar of the game for his team. Heavy, strong and faBt, he could break over the Baylor line on almost everjrplay and he was the main reason why the Baylor, backs were sometimes held at crucial points. One 'Incident niarred the play of the victors and erased from the mind of the spectators much of the glory of, the wonderful 'game the Red and Gray played.

Midway of the fourth period, a Baylor player became angered at Mayhew, the star tackle of Easley, and slugged him while the Ensley man was prone on the The incident was in plain view of everyone and instantly there was a rush by both teams, together with. some subs from Baylors bench. The officials, the student police and cooler heads among thfe players, were qnickly in action as energetic pacifists and the trouble was quickly over. Since both teams participated in the slugging, regardless of the one who started it, the officials assessed no penalty, probably ruling that it is as much a crime to hit back as to hit. Many of the spectators loudly urged the referee to penalize Baylor and on his failure to do so subjected him to stringent mticism for the rest of the game, as well as rooting vigorously for Ensley.

Coach Bryan was very indignant over the entire game; claiming that, in addition to the slugging incident, his players were Subjected rough treatment all day, especially in the way of interference with, and illegal tackling -and cutting down of men. eligible to receive forward passes. He said that the officials refused to call the penalties until their attention was called and then did not penalize the rough play, merely giving Ensley-the ball at the spot; The coach stated that Baylor would never be given Another game with a city school team in Birmingham. He persisted iq this statement, although reminded by his interviewer that Baylor teams have been noted 'for their sportmanship for years and that it would be unjust to blame the Baylor officials for the act of one player who lost his temper, in the heat of battle. The interference with forward passes, was penalized twice and each time the offense appeared due rather to the over-eagerness of the Bay lor player, rather than dirty play.

On the other hand, Baylor players complained that they were forced to stand for a stream. of vile language and oaths directed at them by the Birmingham players. They were cautioned bv their coachea between halves to hold their tern pets and to refrain absolutely from reply, verbal or physical, to the insults. Looking over the Baylor roster, no individual star can be found, for the entire lirie played like stars, the backs ran with blinding speed and the ends proved themselves to be on their toes at all times. Billy Bush and Curly Gfroerer, with their end runs, plunges and returns of punts and kick-offs, worked the most gains, and to the two backs should go credit for the majority of the gains.

For the Ensley team, it waa all Mayhew, Lowery and Marston. In the first part of the game Lowery and Marston staged quite a punting duel with Roy Witt, local fullback, the honors being in favor of the local booter. Lowery also was good at plunging through the line. After an exchange of pnnta, some advancing and-a fumble had left the two teams about where they started, Baylor started a concentrated attack, which was to lead to the first touch down of the day. Landresa caught a deflected punt and it was Baylors ball on Enaleys 20-yard line.

Witt ran around end for ten Tarda, and then Gfroerer made thirteen around the same end. Bush bucked it over through the last three yards, and Witt kicked goal. After the next kick-off, Baylor forced Ensley back to their 25-yard line; a fumble there and the ball rolled nine yards, until Alley picked- it up and ran sixteen yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter a perfect pass from Bush to Chick Landress made twelve yards and another touchdown. Ensley was on her own 35-yard line as the half ended.

Baylor went out to win in the sectind half and Smashed through for two more touchdowns. The Red and Gray got the ball on downs. Witt passed to Gfroerer, who made thirty-eight yarda before downed, and Buh took it over on a plunge. Witt drop-kicked the goal. Curly Gfroerer got away to another one of those brilliant broken field runs in the last part of the third quarter, taking a punt and never stopping until he hatrim for fifty yards, and the last local touchdown of the game.

In the last quarter after the fight, Billy Bush failed to get onto a snap back from Butter, and McGpnagle, recovering. ran for a touchdowufrom the 12-yard line. Lowery kicked goal. The ball seesawed from that time on, ending tn Baylors possession in their own ter: ritory.
