DY 28 TO 7 SCORE
t (Continued from Pago 1)
tenm-mnto to shino brightly.
Powell gained 1 yard on tho next
play and Owens cast his lot upon tho
sea of chance for tho first time in the
gamo by a good gain of six yards.
Kcnloy failed togaln Powell plunged
within 3 yards of tho "green and
white goal on tho next play- Prosum-
ingly starting on n loft end run
Powell suddenly changed his course
and shot through right tacklo for the
first and a colorful touchdown. Tho
ocoro was 7 to O'when ho immediately
afterwards kicked goal.
Hill kicked off to B. White. White
roturned 17 yards and was tackled
so hard that his groan was heard in
tho grandstand. It was Clarendon's
ball on thir own 33 yd. line. Johnson
rushed center for a 1 yard gain and
Corbin duplicated the measure around
r. e. Clarendon punted 30 yards out
of bounds. Tho quarter ended after
A. C. C. roturned tho punt Schull
made only 2 yards in two trials.
Second Quarter
With tho ball on their own 44 yd.
line tho Clarendon Bulldogs started
the second quarter in a business like
manner when Schull passed 18 yards
to Lewis.
After maneuvering around for 3
downs in an effort to reach a good
position tho canine bootcr failed to
send the pigRkin through tho A. C. C
Uprights from a distance of 49 yards.
Griffith gained 4 yards by rushing
center. Kcnley made first down and
Griffith repeated with 12 yards in 2
trials. Powell camo back to life with
a small gain of 17 yards around Tight
end. Ho hammered r. t. for tho count
of 5 on tho succeeding play and Kin-
loy made 2 on tho next. Powell gain-
ed 4 for 1st. down. Lacking only 4
yards on tho fourth down Owens of
the A. C. C. Wildcats lost a chance for
another first down by dropping a
pas3 when tackled hard.
Tho "Bull-puppies" were afraid to
hit tho wall of Wildcat warriors and
punted on the first play to A. C. C.'s
9 yard line. Powell returned the favor.
Hill made a beautiful play when he
cut in front of a Bulldog waiting for
a pass and pulled tho ball down. He
gained 5 yards before the bewildered
player tackled him.
Powell fully expected to receive his
share of tho glory however so he
absolutely refused to bite tho dirt on
tho next play. He was tackled five
times but each time he shook the
Bulldogs off and started on about his
own business. The last canine how-
ever was just a little proud of his
bulldog grip nnd so checked Powell's
pace that a bounding warrior of
Clarendon tackled him from behind
when ho had a clean filed before him.
His net gain was only 30 yards.
Tho ball was on Clarendon's 44 yard
marker. Griffith made 5 yds. around
right end. Powell faked a pass and
made first down. Mitchell recovered
a fumble by Griffith for a six yd. loss.
Powell made first down on tho next
two thrusts.
Only 12 yards stood between the
fighting wildcats and a touchdown.
Powell sailed around left end for 2
yards. Kinley counted four on a snap
ball and Powell took tho ball within
1 pard of tho goal line. Ho lacked
inches of gaining th yard on the
next trial but ho easily made it on
tho 3rd. He kicked goal and as the
half ended a minuto later the score
was 14 to 0 in Abilene Christian Col-
lege's favor.
Second Half
Sanders caught tho opening kickoff
and returned 27 yards. It was A. C.
C's. ball on Clarendon's 40 yard line.
Konloy gained 5 yards at 1. 1. Griffith
gained 4 1-2 yds. and a 7 yd. gain by
Powell was lost when A. C. C. was
penalized for off side. Damron re-
covered a fumble for a 4 yd- gain.
Powell made n poor punt when he
kicked tho ball out of bounds only
IB yards down tho field.
It was Clarendon's ball on their own
34 yard line. So hard did Owens tackle
Smith that tho latter told tho reforeo
and tho latter severely punished A. C.
C. by penalizing them. Griffith was
thrown for a six ynrd loss when he
lingered on a pass. On tho next play
tho Bulldog center threw tho ball too
high and it soared over tho heads of
tho buckficld men and rolled to with-
in 3 feet of the Abilene goal lino be-
fore a CInrendonetto recovered It
After blocking several attempted
punts and passes A. C. C. gained po-
ssession of tho pig skin on tho 9
yard lino of tho Bulldogs. Powell
made 6 yards on the first play but
failed to get around left end for a
count on tho next. Griffith gained
4 yards by rushing center and Powell
tore through right tacklo for his third
( V -'' " '" ' ' ..... . . t. lmj.mmmmm . m ... i i ..... iu.. .. mn f.iiii(i" J fggg; i
touchdown of tho game. He kicked his
third goal of tho gamo and the Bull-
dogs were about ready for supper".
After sec-sawing up and down the
field tho quarter ended with Claren-
don in possession of the ball on their
own 44 yard line.
Third Quratcr
Clarendon punted to A. C. C.'s 1G
ynrd lino as soon as they received
possession of tho ball. Powell lost 3
yards at r. c. He punted to mldfield
nnd tho waiting Bulldog fumbled.
Mitchell recovered. Kinley did his
stuff wh6n he gained 20 yards in 2
attempts. Powell made 1 yard at 1. t.
and Kenley rammed right guard for a
3 yard gain- Afteer an incomplete
pass Kcnley received n 16 yd. pass in
a dagcrous play.
Clarendon gained possession of the
ball on their own 42 yard line. A
Bulldog pnss of 28 yards was barely
incomplete. A triple fumble netted
nothing nnd Hill stopped tho next
play dead still with a deadening
tacklo. "Trent" knocked down a Clar-
endon pass to keep them from mak-
ing first down on their fourth at-
tempt. It was A. C. C's ball on their
own 38 yard line.
Robinson gained 7 yards around
left end in two starts and "Trent"
Powell mauled right guard for 5
markers. Robinson handed Powell
the ball and ho ran 50 yards through
a broken field for a touchdown. A
few more of these sensationnl runs
and "Trents position on an nil T. I.
A. A. team will be assured. He kicked
goal. The score now stood 28 to 0.
After a bit of ploying Clarendon
received possession of tho ball on a
65 yard punt by Hill.
Clarendon next uncorked a well ex-
ecuted "hidden bnll" play much to the
disgust of the A. C. C. team. As n
result a Bulldog trotted up the grid
iron for the only touchdown of the
Clarendon Gridstcrs of tho day. Grif
fith kicked goal and the final score of
the affray was established; Abilene
Christian College 28 Clarendon Col
lege 7. Tho game ended after an ex
change of punts.

ER ALL COSTUME RECITAL

An outstanding feature of enter-
tainment for the near future is an nil
costume recital in expression to be

Miss Chism has been in tho expres-
sion department of Abilene Christian
College ever since entering the col-
lego threo years ago and under tho
cnpablo tenching of Mis3 Yetta Mitch-
ell sho hns shown remarkable ability
in speech arts.
Tho young lady has appeared on a
number of group recitals during the

casions have done her credit and give
promiso of greater things on her in-
dividual recital.

(Continued from Pago 1)
some line of tho professional and
business world.
There nro at present twenty-threb
high school teachers) of which over n
dozen nro superintendents nnd prin-
cipals; seventeen professors; and two
working on their M. A. degrees at
present.
Among outstanding names mention-
ed nppeared that of VernOn McCast-
land who has received his Phd. do-1
greo from Chicago University taml is
how studying in Germany Hollis
Manly was mentioned as one of Abi-
leno's most progressive insurance)
men and D. Rambo who will' next'
year become manager of one of tho
J. C. Penny stores. Tho nhmo of
Carl Etter Btonds 6ut prominently in
religious work nnd it is his intention
to leave America in the near future
nnd with his wife becomo n mission-
ary in the foreign fields.
Don Morris n truo A Club member
and who is now holding a responsible
position in Abilene High School as
teacher of history and ns debating
coach wns the noxt speaker. Ho
made a splendid talk on what tho A
Club stood for nnd tho requirements
necessary for membership. Mr. Mor-
ris said that tho A Club stood for
Abileno Christian College and for
anything that sho did that was worth
while.
He thanked the student body for
their cooperation stating that al-
though the A Club had accomplished
some great things had it not been
for tho student body's support it
would have been unable to realize the
success it had known.
Mr. Morris said thcro were only
threo requirements necessary to be-
come eligible for membership none of
which were hard or could bo objection-
able. First a young man must have
represented Abilene Christian College
in some phase of tho college activi-
ties! second ho must have made an
average grade of B; and third he
must have so conducted himself as to
receive tho approval of tho faculty
and the A Club members. No young
mnn who smokes or uses profano
language is permitted to becomo a
member.
The speeches were all inspirational
and it should certainly be tho desire
of every boy in A. C. C. to becomo a
member of a club that has such high
standards high ideals and that ac
complished so many good things for
the betterment of the school and hu
manity in general.
