EWING AND ELGIN IN SCORELESS TIE Tigers Fumble on Elgin 20, Ending Early Touchdown Drive EWING—The Ewing - Elgin foot ball game ended in a scoreless tie Friday evening, September 24. The game was played before a large crowd at Ewing. Neither team showed enough offensive power to even threaten to score. Early in the game, Ewing siacted on what looked like a march toward Elgin's goal line, but the Tigers fumbled on the 20-yard line and El gin recovered. Ewing made seven first downs from scrimmage to El gin’s two. Elgin was awarded three first down on penalties against Ewing, but the visitors were unable to cash in on the breaks. Neither side was suc cessful with passes. Ewing completed one out of four, Dunaway to Dierk,s for a gain of 9 yards. Elgin tried two for no gain either time. In the third quarter, Elgin had trouble getting off a punt, and Ewing was given the ball on Elgin’s 30-yard-line. How ever, Elgin’s strong defense forced Ewing to give up the ball. In the fourth, Bennett, of Ewing, recovered an Elgin fumble on Elgin’s 40-yard-line, but again Elgin’s hard tackling prevented Ewing from moving closer to the goal line. Several Elgin men were kept out of the game because of in juries.

The Cards led 6-2 at inter mission, but the Benders open ed up in the second-half. Twice North Bend receivers took the oval beyond t h o Cards’ secondary and scamper ed into pay territory. Lack of blocking hampered the O’Neill backs. Backs J i m Donohoe and Shorty Miles stood out for the Scarlet. Miles’ elbow was dis» located in an early melee and hurt the Scarlet chances. Miles played off-and-on through the remainder of the game. It’s doubtful if he’ll be ready for Lynch Friday when the Cards go to Lynch. RULING CLASS . . .
