From tho kick-olf tho Bed Cloud
squad hurl everything coming their
way. It was impos-dhlo to hold them
and touchdown followed touchdown
with wonderful frequency. At ono
point of tho gnmo tlnee touchdowns
were made in not much more than flvoj
minutes. At tho end of the llrst half
tho opposing loam looked a little dis j
couragod, but uetore tho second half
was over they resigned themselves to
their unhappy fate and nccepted with
what equanimity they could tho most
decided defeat, ever administered on
'he Bed Cloud grounds. Tim iriuiie
was a shutout, as far as Franklin was
concerned. Red Cloud kept chalking
up scores until they lost count, but
the most reliable reports placed the
final score at Til to 0.
