.^Central Wins v ■ From Kearney ^**l)utplay the Out Staters and Take Game by 20-13 Score. Cuitral High remained In the run ning for the state high school foot ball championship when it defeated the fast Kearney eleven at League park yesterday afternoon by a score of 20 to 13. It appeared after the first quarter that Central would be returned victor. Kearney could not hold up under the terrific plunging of Cen tral's back field. Kearney scored its points in the first quarter and all but a brief period in that quarter had the ball continuausly in Central's territory. Hastening was the outstanding ■ star for the visitors. Minus part of one of his fingers, which he lost in an accident a week or so ago, he played a brilliant garne. Time and again he would crash through the locals’ line for substantial gains Campbell, Kimple and Wunderwald ' also are worthy of mention. Blue Howell played his usual stellar ’ game for the Purple and was re sponsible for all of Central's touch downs. , , Any time during the game that Central needed yardage Howell was called on to carry the ball. Robert son, Morrow and Thomas also shared in the heavy work for Coach Schmidt's men. One of the bright spots or the game was a 70-yard run by Marrow, who received a klckolT on the local’s 10 yard line and raced through a broken field to Kearney’s 20-yard line before he was stopped. 'r*>e fore part of the game was ?d somewhat by a succession of les by Central, a Purple mis limy being directly responsible for • Kearney’s touchdown. A few min utes later aifother misplay placed the ball In a position from where Easter ling scored the second touchdown. It was apparent in the second quar ‘ ter that Kearney was beginning to - show signs of wearing from the Pur ple attack. ' During the balance of the quarter Kearney’s goal was In danger two or three times. A forward pass of a. 33 yards, from Howell to Robertson, ended the half. ’ On two plays after the kickoff the ball was brought to the five-yard line, where Howell went over for his second touchdown. Marrow booted the ball between Ihe goal, posts for the extra point. Central had posses - sion ot th® baI1 during the greater part of the quarter, with the excep tion of a forced punt 'due to offside •’end rough work by some of the ’Purple men. Campbell Immediately returned the punt and the referee’s 'whistle ended the quarter after Mar row had made a 15-yard run around left end. Howell made a 10yard gain and the ball was brought to Kearney's ! 12-yard line. Another play through renter and the ball was on the vis! . tors’ four-yard line. On the next ,play Roberston fumbled and Shields 'J? lecovered the hall. Campbell punted ..., out of danger and on two plays by * Thomas and Howell, Central gained i first down. Easterling, who had been ' playing a stellar game for the visi , tors, was forced out of the game by p<(>rtiuries. Three more plays netted b Ihe Purple lads another first down. On the next play Howell scored his j* third touchdown of the game. Mar row kicked goal. f- Central kicked off and Compbel! r returned the hall 30 yards. On the next play Central was penalized five ’ yards for offside and 15 yards for 1 roughing. Unable to gain any ground after two unsuccessful attempts ot for » ward pnssing. Campbell punted to Egan, who fumbled the ball. The referee’s whistle ended Hie game. IMieV© U, Or Noi^ HAROLD ROTH, a hunter of re pute, has come to the conclusion that some people judge distance . with far-sighted eyes. Harold was (old by a fnrmer out in the state that there was a fine Mallard pond • about a mile from the farmhouse. “ A small boy guided him to the pond * and the way led through corn fields. • plowed fields, cockleburr patches and . drifted sand. It took ono hour to J teach it. * "If It was s 'mile and a half," says « Harold. ‘‘It was a full four and a J quarter. 1 wore the soles off my « shoes getting there and when I J looked at the pond lC was so small Jj^Hiat I could have covered it with my ^^lat. Any duck that would have land ' cd on it would have been easy to kill. ~* A fellow could have lain in the reeds at the side of it and hit the duck a ^ crack with a club. It was so small and • narrow—that is, If the hunter had , any strength left after walking that long distance." • . t Mark Slone is a Platte river hunter. Friends who see him come In from ■ a»shoot with the same number of * shells he went out with, inquired as w to what ha did with his time while £ lip river. k "Build blinds," sez Mark. , Mark states that where ho hunts, ;• the river comes up and down like • high and low tide and that a blind .*. washes out within a few hours and * that If he isn’t cutting willows to make a blind he's hunting a sand * bar to build one on “To make it harder,” he remarks, “the river current is so swift where * I hunt that It takes two men two ", hours to row 20 yards, so hunting consists of looking, building and rowing." Oren Fisher hag for several years been an enthusiastic duck hunter, hut a friend remembers the day when Oren handled his first shotgun. Not so many years ago they went up to u pond near the Missouri river and put out decoys Suddenly right over the tops of the cattails flashed a flock of teal, coming straight over •; the blind. ■>• Oren took one look and In a very .’ excited voice called out to his com .1 -panlon: jjjf "Hey! Whatlnheck are these r l~ birds?” _ • Hurry Up Vo*t announced that Nelah a will replace Curran al right end and 11ahen- U and Kunnw will hold down the soaltlnna, when Ihe Wolverines •line up agalnat tho "Devil Doga1' lu morrow. - 11 ....
