Six-Man Title Dopesters Have Even Chance on Big” 10 Program THE BUCKET By Sohn Hielie If anyone doubts that six-man football is really quite a game, let him be shown. If he’s a skeptic, or “one of those persons from Mis- souri,” take him to see a six-man football game and he'll come back converted. That's what happened to a good Many persons who saw Page high school’s fast, well-drilled sextet beat Haynes at Steele in an Armistice Day game that decided who should have the state consolidated league title. Verily the six-man game is raz- tle- izle football of the most raz- zle-dazzle type. Three laterals in ‘one play are common place and at least one is executed before a back starts going places, On one Page play here's how the ball was flashed around: Stanley Omoth to Ray Omoth to Cochrane to Drewher, who took it for a touch- down. Prettily executed, that one was, Concensus of opinion among spectators, who lined the sidelines to the number of about 300 and came from as far as Velva and Linton, was that the six-man game would be widely adopted in North Dakota next fall. “Schools right in this territory that have never included football on their Quick Thrusts Early in Game Give Braves Win; Kern Tal- lies for Demons on Pass Mandan scored twice in rapid suc- cession in the opening quarter to beat Bismarck high school in an Armistice Day contest at Mandan |'Thursday that ended the season for both teams. The score was 12-6. The Braves, who outcharged and outgained their Demon opponents during the greater part of the game. clearly deserved the victory. They piled up 6 first downs to 2 for Bis- marck and consistently checked the Demon running attack. All of the fireworks came in the first half—a good share of it shortly after the opening kickoff. Mandan kicked and on the first play Kern, Bismarck right half, fumbled. Cam- pos, hard-working Brave fullback, re- covered on Bismarck’s 32. Demon Line Holds In a succession of plunges Campos, Schweigest and House carried the ball to the Demon one-yard line, where the maroon forwards stiffened heroically and took the ball on downs. Smith's kick ‘rom behind his own goal line was hurried, however. and went out of bounds on the 15- yard line. Two plays carried it to -the 12. Schweigert exploded through center athletic program before will play it or a clever delayed buck to the De- next fall, or I miss my guess,” said L.|mon 4. Campos picked up 2 yards J.

With nothing to gain from the game in a financial way they did their most to make the game itself a success, and afterwards dished out a free lunch for the visiting squads. Not to be forgotten is the Page high school band, which treked halfway across the state to lend its team its moral support. With George Burt, a graduate of the North Dakota Agri- cultural college directing, they did a job that would have done credit to many a larger institution, both march- ing on the field between halves and m a musical way. J. E. Worling, superintendent of schools at Haynes, coached the Haynes team and results of his tutoring were marked, even though he's had to cram it into less than a full season. This is the first year football has been played at Haynes. It seems to us, even though it is granted that team-work is nine- tenths of the game in any sport where more than one man is involved on one side, that its up to the individual more in six-man football than it is in the eleven-man game. A really good ball-carrier has plenty of chanve to show his stuff and so has a good tackler, or blocker. L, F. Rice, superintendent of schools at Velva and a member of the na- tional six-man football rules com- mittee, watched the game from the sidelines and afterwards declared his. belief that Wallace Warry, hard- driving Page halfback, was the best backfield man he had seen this fall. As he pointed out, Warry won't be stopped until he’s dragged down. Asked whether any changes in rules were probable next year, Rice said that the rules may be changed to permit wearing of regular cleated football shoes. According to present regulations only tennis shoes may be used. Rice is now working on the selec- tion of a state six-man football honor roll, on which he said 15 men are ta be placed. Names and pictures of the _ men will be forwarded to a national magazine, he said, to be published in one of this winter's issues. A ques- tionnaire has been circulated among state coaches asking for nominations, be said. B. G. Gustafson, superintendent of schools at Linton, who with D. Moriarity, Linton coach, was one of the officials, came through with a wise one. Said he: “Mor- farity here, is from Columbus college at Sioux Falls, S. D. When he went there, you know, there were 165 men in the school, and 165 of them were football play- ers.” Walter Dobler, who stars in the as well as on the athletic field at Linton, was one of the line- men who worked the game. ** * THOSE RAMPAGING PRAVES Mandan high school’s football team, Practically counted out as state title centenders before the season opened, have come slong fast this fall under Coach’ Francis Grunenfelder, putting tm his first year as the head mentor there. After loosing to Bismarck and Linton in early games, they came back to wallop Dickinson and upset ® favored Valley City eleven, ariother team which har turned in more than fte share of surprises. Strong last year, they've more than held their ‘own this fall. * * * CAGE OUTLOOK GOOD With four of last year’s lettermen back, Taylor is looking forward to a successful basketball season this year.

A pass for the extra point was knocked down. * Mandan kicked again and the De- mons, unable to gain, punted. Smith's kick, diagonally across the field, was taken by the speedy House in stride or. about his own 40, He raced 60 yards down the east sideline for Man- dan’s second touchdown with scarcely a hand laid on him. Placekick Low Geiger’s placekick was low. The Demon thrust came midway in the second quarter. A series of punt exchanges had given Bismarck the ball on Mandan’s 46. Lee grabbed a spot pass over center tor 13 yards, On the next play Smith dropp2d back to midfield and fired a long pass at Kern, who gathered it in on the Mandan 20. He streaked goal- ward with 3 black-and- white war- tiors bearing down on him, managed t2 stay on his feet though hit by two of them, and was finally driven out of bounds on the 5-yard line. At this point Coach Glen Hanna sent in Captain Asa Dawson, driv- ing Demon fullback, who has spent @ good deal of the season on the sidelines with a shoulder injury Bowers called his signal on the first play and Dawson cracked center for three yards, The Demons were off- side on the play, however, and were Penalized back to the 10. Murray circled right end for a nice gain, driving hard through a mess of tacklers down to the 3. Two more running .plays were piled up, however, and on fourth down Murray dropped back to pass. Kern Grabs Pass He spotted Kern in the end-zone and let fly. The ball sped through the hands of two of the Brave sec- ondary, and Kern sprawled full length on the ground to wrap his out- stretched hands around it. A pass for the extra point was no good. There were no more serious scor- ing threats. A punting duel between Smith and Campus and sporadic gains through the line by Mandan that ultimately netted them two more first downs characterized the test of the contest. Most of -what laurels can be handed the Demons go to Halfback Kern. A substitute most of the sea- son, he started against Mandan Thursday and played almost four full quarters of hard, alert, never- Say-die football. Not only was his Pass-receiving one of the few bright spots in the Bismarck offense, but he did an outstanding job of backing up the line on defense. Time and again he brought Brave runners to the dirt with crisp, hard tackles. He was carried from the field, utterly Spent, in the closing minutes of the game. Interference Ragged Murray and Smith both passed well, but could run nowhere. Slug- gish interference left them no place t run, The line as a whole charged well at times but seemed too indifferent, t2 make a consistent showing. At times an end, a tackle, or a guard would rise up and break through to smear @ play that would click beau- tifully the next time it was used. Lee, McDonald, and Donaldson seemed to break through oftenest. Mandan’s line played well as a unit. House and Schweigert were out- standing in the backfield.
