THE MICHIG it .. .. _~ ... W ._ DOWNS RlE -- - I I STB RNYCON- Line Looks Weak Before Assault of Scrub Backs; Forward Pass Attack Good KEEPER, ROBY, KNOIDE, AND CAPPON SHOW TO ADVANTAVE It took 45 minutes for the Varsity to push four markers over on the hard fighting Reserves yesterday aft- erndon^ on Ferry field and for a while after the session opened it looked as though the total score would be smaller than that. Weakness in the 'Varsity forward wall was more noticeable than ever yesterday afternoon, the Reserve backs finding huge gaps ahead of them on several occasions through which they raced until they were downed by the Varsity backs. On of- fense the first string linemen did not show to much bette advantage, Cap- pon and Roby finding sufficient open- ings on all too few occasions. Coaches Little, Vick, and Weiman spent a busy afternoon keeping the line can- didates instructed on the faults that were so evident." Kipke, Steger Out Tjlindireds of the 'spectators who gathered to watch the scrimmage were audibly disappointed when Kipke- and Steger retired early to the clubhouse after making the circtit of the cin- der track a couple of times. These two backs furnish most of the fire- w'oks as & rule and the stands wore anxious to see them.in action. Knode piloted the Varsity with Cap-) pon and reefer beside him at the half back posts and Roby at fullback. Thisl combination didn't seem to get prop- erly started for it was at least 10 ninutes 'before the first touchdown was rung up. During this interim the ball alternated back and forth be- tween the two teams each quarterback resorting to the punting game severall imes with the Reserve kicker having 3lightly the best of the argument. 'Capon and Roby had difficulty in iercing the scrub line for any ap- irociable gains during the first 10 ninutes, the Reserve forwards fight- ng stubbornly for every foot of ground. This went to such an extent hat th~e Varsity lost the ball on the scrubs one yard line after successive bucks had failed. It was at this point hat the first string line looked weak- est.

The. first touchdown was accounted for by a 25 yard heave from Roby to Keat- ley. Knode registered the additional point by a perfect drop kick' from the 15 yard line. The second sebre was also registered by the air, route, Knode picking Neisch for his target in the midst of a number of Reserve tacklers. The tall Varsity end made a pretty catch on this play.- Knode again d opkicked the goal for the point. -I Keefer Sparkles" Keefer gave a brilliant exhibition of broken field running, tearing around the opposing ends, time and again with a burst of speed that car- ried him far beyond the enemy for- wards. The trouble was in several instances that the interference was unable to keep ahead of him and the sophomore back was laid low two or three times when he would have had a clear field with proper interfer- ence. Roby showed some clever running in his off-tackle attempts, dodging and twisting his way for considerable ground after he had 'been apparently stopped.Capponhabsolutely clove the line on two or three of his line plung- es, strewing the path of his advance) Keene Fitzpatrick Declares Cross Country Develops Distance Stars i J t - - - - - - - - - - ----- - - - - !'

Cappie seems to be hitting the line even harder, if such athing is possible, than he did last fall when he was feared by eevry line in the Conference. Knode gave a clever exhibition all afternoon, displaying good judgment in his selection of plays and kicking and passing cleverly. His running was the best he has turned in this season, breaking away several times for good gains. The third touchdown was reg- istered by the signal caller on an end run from, the "six yardf stripe. He failed to goal. The fourth touchdown was scored by Roby, who broke through right tackle, and, in one of the feature plays of the afternoon, ran 30 yards for the score. Reserves Fooled. The Varsity pulled a surprise on the Reserves on the try for goal following the last touchdown. Roby stood in position to make a place kick. As the ball was passed thecscrub line- men came tearing through followed by the backs to block the kick. Roby steped to one side and passed the ball to Neisch, who was standing just over the goal line with not an opponent within five yards of him. c I t a r c t "f t c Y i c IDEA L PLACE TO EAT )piaT CA.a SOUTH UNIVERSITY AVE. feei s -The Best There Are Display - The l est in Town es-Home Baked-Delcious 1EJNTER THE, PLACE UNIVERSITY AVENUE ck and a half from Engineering Arch A D RUN IVY STUDENTS I !
