STEVENS BROS., of course, is the name on the finished work that distinguishes good pictures from the ordinary. 5 Photon pher In Vour Town this time they came out a little short, 32 to 0. The game was a good fast one and was exciting from start to finish Al though McCook was supposed to have a good fast team they did not come up to our boys in physical condition or wind. The fine condition of our boys and the amount of endurance which they possess, are strong points, and is explained By the fact that there is not a smoker or any other form of dlsapa tion among those of the team. Our boys showed again the amount of hard knocks which they could with stand as there was not a single minute taken out for any of the Red Cloud players during the whole game. The game started with Red Cloud receiving but they lost the ball on downs. Mc Cook lost the bnll on a fumble which was recovered by R. Pope, who ran about forth-fivc yards for our first touchdown. Red Cloud simply played McCook off her feet and kept her there during the rest of the game. The second touchdown was scored by Hf Blackledge in the second quarter. The third touchdown was scored by P. ,Newhouse in the same quarter. At the end of the first half the score was 18 to 0 in favor of Red Cloud, they hav ing failed to kick a single goal. , Another touchdown was scored in the third quarter by R. Newhousc, making the score 25 to 0 in favor of Red Cloud, P. Newhouso kicked goal. In the fourth quarter another touch down was made by Ed Pulsipher mak ing the final score 32 to 0. P. New house again kicked goal. Time was called with the ball in Red Cloud's possession on their way for another touchdown. Next Friday the boys play Lebanon here. The game was matched to play off last year's tie of 7 to 7. All those who enjoy a good hard game of foot ball come to Koontz's field next Friday at 3 p. m.
