TAMASEIA THE BRIGHT STAB Spectators Pleased with the Clean and Fast Sport, and Show Their ' -Appreciation vrih MaaT and Load Cheers. In a hotly contested battle yesterday afternoon, Crelshton and ' St.' Thomas played to a Us score. The game was evenly played throughout, with the scene of action for the most part in the center of the field. There were, however, several opportunities of scoring presented to each aide, but It proved merely the excitement of the moment Crelghton had the ad vantage in weight, but the St. Thomas bunch overcame this In speed. They proved a fast bunch and It is this par ticular quality that adelsted them mostly In upholding their perfect record for 't ho season and enabled them to leave the . campus with a scoreless sheet against them. Crelghton had the better assort ment of players and a better line. Bt. Thomas' back field mad up of Dough erty and Coffey was perhaps superior to Crelghton's but Frucha was outdone by neither of these men, and consistently followed his interference and went through for long sal us. Prucha played a grand game and was the most consistent ground gainer for his team. But Jap Tamasela may be counted as the man who saved Crelghton from de feat. He pulled off two pretty successive Jluys of the flashy order that proved the most opportune of the game. On Crelghton's twenty-yard mark, Jap at tempted to boot the ball. The kick was blocked by a Thomas man and bounded back two yards. Quick as a flush Jap ran back, grabbed the ball on a bound and eluding four tackier, succeeded In advancing the ball about twenty yards. Makes Twenty-Five-Vard Gala. Immcdintely following this, on a fake puss, Tamast-la made about twnty-f!ve yards gain around right end and placed the ball In eafe territory. This hupoened near the end of tho third quarter and tho Crelshton cntliusleMIs were glad when tho whistle blew for a breathing spell. The two preceding quarters were In teresting, but monotonous. Each team took turns at advancing the ball, but ac complished little. Both teams frequently tried forward pusses, but moat of them were intercepted. Of the many tries at this play throughout the game, a very small fraction of them were succeuful. Little Klrklu. Very' little kicking was resorted to. In the second quarter Tamasela tried one from the forty-yard mark, but it fell far short of Its mark. In the third quarter 1 ougherty, for lit. Thomus, tried to drap a kick from the thirty-five-yard mark ar.d it proved a worthy effort. The ball railed low and fast and went less than half a foot under the crossbar. In thU tame quarter Bt. Thomas worked the ban irom the renter of the field to within fifteen yards of Crelghton's goat. Jty a nest pass of sterner to Doyle they gained twenty-five yards.
