M.  A. C.  BEATS  CRIMSON  IN 

FIRST  GAME  OF  NEW  SEASON. 

Under  the  guidance of  ::t  form e r 
Yost  pupil,  Olivet opened  the  lucal 
football  season  Saturday  ill  a  g:1I11C 
that was  for  the  most  part  devoid 
of  thrills, and  which  went  to  ~lll ck­
lin's  aggregation  by  a  sco re  of  16 
to o.  Oli\'et  has  a  big, husky  team 
this  season,  and  it  was  expected 
that the  scor e  ,,,Quid  be  low.  The 
r.1.  A.  C. goal  line  was  in  dallgcr 
but  once.  howeve r,  and  presented 
an  impenetrable  lillc  to  the attacks 
of  the  Crimson backs.

Rider  kicked  off  to  Gaut hier  at 
t he s tart,  amI  the  Aggie  qua rter  re 
turned  15  yards.  A  succession  of 
plays off  tackle on  both  sides  of the 
li.llc  by Julian, Gifford , and  S mith, 
took  t he  ball  to  Olivet's  two· yard 
lim:,  wh ere  they  helt.! 
the 
ball  on uo wn s.  Rider punted short 
:\ pen alty 
ami  recovered  Ihe  ball.

Ne ithe r  side  was  ahle  to  g ain  con 
s istently 
in  the  rem ;linder  of  tho: 
quarter,  and  the quarte r  e nded  wi th 
the  ball  in  Olil'ct's  possession  on 
he r  OW11  :!O-VOlrd  line. 

At the  sta~t of  the second  q uarte r, 
Miller and  Rider engaged in  a punt· 
ing  duel,  the  C rim son  star  havillg 
the  w orst of it.  Some  short rusht:s 
and  tI  forward  pass  from  J Illian  to 
Gauthier  took  the  ball  to  OE\'et's 
olle Y3rd  line, where Juli;lll .fumblcd, 
Olivet gettin g  the ball.  RIde r  lhen 
to  Gauthier,  inkrcepted  a 
punted

N eithe r  side  scored  in  this  period. 
Olivet  kicked  off  to  B.  1\1 ille r  to 
open  thc thi rd  q Uflrter.  H e  carried 
the  ball  to  midfi ekl,  but  1\1.  A.  C . 
was  penalized  for  holding,  and  the 
ball  went  back  15  yards.  R ider 
mflde  a  fair  ciltch  o f  !l.liller's  punt. 
Scvernl  long  gains, :md  a  nellt  for 
ward  pass,  Springer  to  Hamilton, 
put the  ball  on  M.  A.  Co's  onc-yard 
line,  After  two  p1a\'s  hltd  failed, 
a  fumble  goavl:  M_  A.  C.  the  ball, 
and  it  was  quickly  rus hed  to  the 
center  of  the  field.  Two  forward 
passes, a  five-yard  penalty, and  an 
attack on the line  by  Blacklock gave 
M.  A ,  C.  the  second  touchdown. 
Blacklock  failed  to  kick  goal,·  T he 
qua rte r  ended soon  after.

After  the  locals  had  scored  an 
other 
to uchdown  by  means  of 
rus'hes  by  Smith and  Gifford, a  long 
forward  pass  to  Henning, find  Ju 
lian's  high  dive  over  the  lioe,  tile 
game  became  a  procession  o f  s ub 
s titutes.  Macklin  wanted  to  gct  a 
look  at some of  his  new  material  in 
action, so  Kurtzworth  well t  in  fo r 
Pobanz.  The  ball  was  worked  up 
the  one·vard  line,  and  lost  all 
.to 
downs_  Oli'vet  punted,  and  plays 
by  Gauthier  aod  J ulian  t~ok  the 
leather  over_  Blacklock  failed 
to 
kick  goal.  Schultz,  Straight,  apd 
Pattison  were  sent  into  the  game. 
M.  A.  C_put u p  a  good offensi\'e 
game,  but  showed  a  lack  of  unity 
i  on defense.  T Q!s ill  not surprising, 

since  Macklin  spent  most  of  his 
time last week  arra nging  an  attack. 
More  attention  will  be given  to  de _ 
fen s ive  work  this  week,  and  Alma 
will  find  a  much  stronger  team  in 
the  field  next S aturday.

hurried  away  to  the  ri ~'e r  banks  to 
obtain  vantage  points  fr om  which

[n  this

It  was generally  predicled  before
