THE RISMARCK TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1934. Wheeler Leads NATIONAL HONORS AT STAKE IN PIT DEMONS PLACED IN HOLE AT OUTSET BY 90-YARD GOAL DASH Webb-Footed Midgets Count Three Touchdowns in Long Second Half Runs LOCAL THREATS FALL SHORT Capital City Squad Fights Des- perately But Lack Scor- ing Punch Fargo’s Midgets smashed their way to a 25 to 0 win over the Bismarck Demons in a game played in a driv- ing rain at Hughes Field Friday night. A demoralizing 90-yard run by Ernie Wheeler on the first play attempted by the Fargoans put the stubborn Demons in a hole from which they were never quite able to climb out. The Midget fullback tore through the center of the line behind perfect interference, broke into the open and outdistanced the secondary de- fense for his touchdown jaunt, the first of his numerous spectacular runs which were to bew:lder the Bis- marck eleven. Numbed by that one disastrous play, the Demons came back fight- ing, blocked the kick for extra point ‘nd held the fleet Midget backs for the remajnder of the half. Wheeler Sccres Again Tt was the all-state fullback who gave Fargo its second touchdown also shortly after the second half cpened in a smash over right tackle after a series of three first downs liad. placed the ball on Bismarck’s 10-yard line. The try for extra point egain failed. ‘Sexton, left half, counted the third touchdown on a 40-yard run on an off tackle play and Eddie, quarter- ‘back, counted the fourth and final touchdown, breaking through. the center of the line and outrunning the Bismarck secondary in a 60-yard streak to the goal. Walford carried the ball over for the extra point after the latter play put the score at 25 0. tow the Midget backs were able to keep their feet on a field which became more and mote slippery as the game progressed is one of the features of the contest which remains unanswered. But they did, to the jon of the Demons who ought viciously to drag the runners icwn only' to have them tear away into the open. The speed individual in that backfield made it disastrous for them into open.

In_ addition, Minnesota’s coach, Bernie Bierman, will send two All- American candidates, end, Frank Lar- son, and halfback, Pug Lund, in ad- dition to 15 others of the lettermen who defeated Pitt last year, against the Panthers, Coach Jock Sutherland, of the Pitts, will use 13 lettermen who were in last year's Minnesota game, which ended in a 7-3 triumph for the mid-west- erners. Although Pitt had shown a wealth of power on the line and in the back- field in vanquishing strong teams from Washington é& Jefferson college and West Virginia university, the Go- phers have likewise demonstrated championship calibre in downing North Dakota State and Nebraska. Perfect weather greeted Pittsburgh, and a crowd of 60,000 persons was predicted. ‘The probable lineups: Pitt Minnesota Rooker ke Tenner Hoel It ‘Widseth Hartwig (c) Ig ‘Oech Shotwell c Rennebohm Ormiston ™] W.
