T. C. U. PLAYS A CLEAN GAME, CHAR
ACTERIZED BY LACK OF WRANG-
LING.
POOLS OFmONmie FIELD
Game Very Damp anl Full of Humorous
Incidents.
The athletic field was very sloppy
Saturday, owing to a hard rain in the
morning. The two teams floundered
around in the mud and water, Rugle
being especially lucky in landing in
the water. The game was full of
humorous incidents. “Come in boys,
the water’s fine,” and “First down, 5
next pool to go,” are some of the
phrases used by the players and
spectators.
The T. C. U. boys are all gentle
men, on and off the . field, and their
clean game and lack of wrangling are
a credit to the team, manager and
coach. They-will al-wtiy? -btr given a
hearty welcome at the A. and M.
The spectators made few rude re
marks at this game, and it is to be
hoped that such remarks will soon be
a thing of the past. We must con
tinue to treat visiting teams in the
same way we want our team treated
when they are the visitors. This is
true sportsmanship.
T. C. U. kicked to A. and M.
Rugle receiving the ball. A. and M.
gained fifteen yards on quarter back
kick and fifteen more on a forward
pass. After about two minutes of
play Leggett carried the ball over for
the first touchdown. Kelley kicked
goal.
T. C. U. again kicked to A. and
M., and Kelley made the second
touchdown after about one and one-
half minutes of play. Kelley failed
to kick goal.
T. C. U.' kicked to A. and M.
Wadlington brought the ball back
thirty yards by a good run behind fine
interference. A. and M. penalized
fifteen yards for failure to touch ball
on forward pass. A. and M. punted
and Hooker made one of the star
plays of the game by capturing the
ball on a fumble, and before he could
bejgathered in he had the ball safely
behindl the line, between the goal
posts. No goal kicked.
T. C. U. to A. and M. Rugle
advanced the ball twenty yards. Har
wood, T. C. U.’s swift full back, got
a forward pass intended for Leggett
and hied away for a touchdown, with
“Choc” in hot persuit. On the kick
out T. C. U. dropped the ball and
lost their chance to kick goal.
A. and M. kicked to T. C. U. but
the latter lost the ball, and Allen
went over for another touchdown, af
ter a determined stand by T C. U.
Kelley failed to kick goal. Allen re
placed by Taylor.
T. C. U. to A. and M. A. and
M. gained twenty • yards on forward
pass. Time up. Fif£t' half ended
