By interspersing forward passes with shift formations and line tactics, the O’Neill football team outgeneraled, outplayed and decisively defeated the Venus Aggies. Pitted against physi cal giants the O'Neill boys depended entirely upon pluck and superior knowledge of the game to win, and . that they had sufficient of both is at tested by the score. Venus won the toss and chose to receive at the south goal. The visitors hurled their heavy backfield into the light O’Neill line and carried the ball past neutral territory but when danger threatened were held for downs. O’Neill in a fierce counter charge carried Ihe ball to the enemy’s twenty yard line only to meet a like fate. Venus called her two hundred and; forty pound fullback and sent him charging into the O’Neill . line, but the ball slipped from his fingers and the eagle eye of Froelich 'spied it, his quick hand seized it and he was off like a flash for a touchdown. Harrington kicked goal. Score: O’Neill 7, Venus 0. Thus it remained until the end of the first quarter. No sooner had the second quarter opened than the far famed Waugh of Venus intercepted a forward pass and carried the ball within striking dis tance of O’Neill’s goal from which point against fierce opposition it was pushed over for a touchdown. Waugh missed goal. Score: O’Neill 7, Venus 6. Recovering from’ this sudden and unexpected blow the gritty O’Neill boys returned to the fight more de termined than ever, and soon had the ball on the enemy’s eighteen yard line where Captain Harrington executed a pretty drop kick. Score: O’Neill 10, Venus 6. This was Harrington’s first attempt at the difficult feat of drop kicking and his success was the more remarkable owing to the fact that he was compelled to attempt it at an ex tremely sharp angle. Soon after the kickoff time was called and the first half ended. O’Neill opened the third quarter with a bewildering array of forward passes which disorganized the Venus defense and before they could collect their scattered wits, Sullivan, who played a star game throughout, had crossed the line for a touchdown. Score: O’Neill 16, Venus 6. Here the O’Neill boys seemed to pity the poor Venus giants in their futile efforts to gain ground and for the sake of making the game interesting to the spectators, allowed them to score once more. Again the heralded Waugh missed goal. Score: O’Neill 16, Venus 12. After blocking a punt in the fourth period O’Neill carried the ball to the three yard line when Captain Har rington plunged straight through the ponderous visitors’ line and crossed the chalk mark for the final score of a hard fought game. Score: O’Neill 22, Venus 12. The O’Neill boys deserve the high est praise for the determined stand which they made against a team pos sessing such a ponderous advantage in weight. Captain Harrington handled his team with precision and judgment while his forward passing was mar velous. Ray Hoffman at center was a tower of strength on defense and on offense passed the ball perfectly. Froelich, Whelan, Baker, Chandler, Mullen, Fallon, Henry, Stannard and Tickler presented a stone wall thro- ■»h which the visitors could not gain con sistently. C. Stannard on end was a whirlwind getting down under long passes and many of O’Neill’s longest gains were due to his excellent work Gatz and Golden, fleetfooted and sure allowed no Aggie to circle the left wing. Fullback Hammond did ex cellent defensive work while Gleec and Sullivan proved sure ground gainers and carried the ball or several occasions far into the enemy’s territory. Card of Thants.

Try Bolting Dishes together until Airtight B'reeck? Of course | they will break. So it is with cast stoves or enamel stoves. If you bolt tight enough to make tight, you break it. If you do not bolt tight, you waste heat and fuel and never can de pend on the oven. Then how are cast and enamel ranges made tight? By bolting loosely, then fill ing the cracks with stove putty, or cement, as it is now called. It is tight, all right—while new—before it is fired up. But after being put to work the putty dries, drops out and the cracks ruin the working qualities of the stove. Then after a year or so they are rickety and rackety and wobbly and they give you a sickish feeling every time you cook on them. Malleable iron can be riv eted and hammered until it is tight as a steam boiler. And it stays tight. Try bending or riveting a piece of enamel or cast and see what happens. Pay the price—get the good kind—and if you want tlie best—buy a Copper-Clad —the range that can’t rust out. Warner (El Sons O’Neill, Nebr PUBLIC SALE!
