THE RICE THRESHER
Mpii
Battle
Sta-
In one of the wildest games ever
played in the Southwest Conference,
the Rio® Owls list Saturday defeated
$$$ TeKasvyn^tns,/2S.19,
A crowd of 30,000 fans was on the
verge of hysterics as Rice's famed
touchdown twins played true to form.
They led the Owls to a 13-0 lead early
in the first quarter and ran the score
up to 22-6 early in the fourth quarter.
The sixteen point margin looked
good enough to Coach Kitts so he sent
in a flock of substitutes. The Steers
immediately opened a dazzling aerial
attack that left the Owls flat-footed.
With Atchison and Pitzer doing the
tossing they cut Rice's lead down to
three points.
With six minutes left to p'ay the
Owls took charge, With all the reg-
ulars in except Wallace and Brandon,
who could not go in as they had left
the game in the fourth quarter, the
Owls marched the ball from their own
34-yard line to a touchdown with Mc-
Cauley smashing over for the score.
They showed just what might have
happened had the regulars played the
entire game.
The Owl's victory cost them but two
injuries. Ray Smith was again in-
jured when kicked in the head, and
Gel your watches, clocks, bracelets,
chains, etc., from B. O. Kreiter, Kress
Bldg. Lobby.
Primo Miller was injured in the fourth
play of the game. He suffered a badly
sprained ankle.
MeCauley and Wallace played beau-
tiful football- MeCauley carried the
ball 21 times for a gaiii of 133 yards.
Wallace, who did not stay in as long
as MeCauley, carried 17 times for 95
yards. John showed the old drive
which he lacked in the S. M. U. game.
He slashed the line and dragged tack-
lers with him for extra yardage. Wal-
lace seemed to share in the re-birth.
He sped around end like a flash and
played a marvellous game on pass de-
fense.
The victory over the Steers put the
Owls back in the Conference race and
served notice to the coining Owl foes
that they are definitely on the come-
back trail.
It took eleven men to gain the vic-
tory. The Rice line turned in one of
the greatest blocking games in ts
career. Byron Williams, Leche Syl-
vester, "Red" Nicholls, "Red" Bale,
"Apus" Brandon, Charlie Moore, Bob
Biering, Sam Mays, John Frankie, and
"Red" Daugherty all played inspired
football.
The two men who really made the
victory possible were those two hard
blocking backs, Harry Witt and Buck
Friedman. Harry will be in the race
for All-Conference this year. He can
stand sixty minutes of hard work and
still come up fighting.
Penalties marred the game, which
Was rough throughout. A total of 190
yards was assessed by officials. Rice
lost 115 yards and one touchdown by
penalties.

between its center and either end. A
