Close Contest
Stiong Blair Team Held to a 7 to 6
Count in Exciting and Close
Game Sunday.
From Monday's Daily
Yesterday afternoon the Platts
mouth Athletics journeyed to Blair
and staeed a brilliant battle with the
team of that city and in which the
locals earnd the respect of their foe
by th" strong and aggressive game
htat they played.
The final score of 7 to 6 with the
extra point in favor of Blair repre
sents a most exciting struggle that
thrilled th onlookers and plunges
of the locals and the aerial attack
of Blair was featured. !
The first score of the game was
made by Blair on a pass that was
completed and the runner escaping
the Athletic tacklers raved for the
Plattsmouth goal to be downed on
the one yard line by Frank Sedlacek.
The Blair team was checked on the
one yard line for two downs until a
short pass over the line gave them
the coveted touchdown and a success
ful try for extra point gave them
the seven that represented victory
for them.
The Athletics scored in the last
part of the game when a fumble by
Blair was recovered by George Sed
lacek. fast half back of the Platts
mouth tam anil who raced thirty
five' yards for ihe touchdown, his
interference being of a high class.
The try for point by Tlattsmouth
failed and left the score 7 to C.
The Blair team was very success
ful in the ir passes, the larger part be
ing short passes that were generally
made good for gains. The Athletics
completed only two of their posses. ,
In the first downs through the line
the Blair team were unsuccessful
while the Athletics were able to com
plete Feven of their first downs on

The game was the best that the
locals have had and was one in which
they showed their real class as the
Blair team is reputed to be one of the
best in the state.
