DEFEATED BY SCORE OF 20 9
Beaver City High School Football
Team Does the Stunt
Fighting gamely and against great
odds McCook lost to Beaver City
Saturday The game was the hardest
fought of anv seen hprp this vpar
Beaver having lost only one game
was confident of winning by a big
score Outweighed 25 pounds to the
man the McCook team played the
visitors to a standstill most of the
time but finally the weight would
tell and they would push the lighter
McCook boys back
Beaver City made a touch down in
about seven minutes after the kick
off With about three minutes to
play in the first Quarter Wilson maiin
a pretty drop kick from the 25 yd
line McCook used forward passes
and end runs to good advantage this
quarter Beaver City was not able
to gain thru the light McCook line
Hobson carried the ball for the Beav
ers only touch down in the second
quarter and Wilson added three more
points for McCook by a nice kick
from the 30- yard line Amsden snt
away for a 30 yard run on a criss
cross and Wilson and Schmidt and
Milligan run the ends for good gains
Beaver City came back stronir in
the second half and completely out
played the McCook boys They made
two touch downs the third quarter
Hobson and Bickford got loose for
long runs several times Bickfords
running thru a broken field was a
feature With SDlendid interferpncp
the Beaver backs ran McCooks ends
at will McCook braced and held
the last quarter The ball see sawed
up and down the field most of the
time in Beavers territory Wilson
made a pretty drop kick from the
3o yard line making the final score
20 to 9
The game was exceptionally free
from rough and dirty playing Both
teams played hard but the weight
won out Bickford and Hobson play
ed a star game for the visitors Beav
ers greatest fault was their fumb
ling a number of the fumbles being
recovered by McCook Reaver made
short but consistent gains on end
runs but failed to gain thru McCooks
line Amsden kicked often and al
ways gained on his punts most of
them averaging 40 yards It would
be hard to pick McCooks star for
all of the boys played a mighty good
-game
