Maryville men might have little
lambs, but the Wildcats took their
goats. The Job was done even to a
taste in a
Prussian's
football massacre last Saturday on Stoll Field. A rare bit of the
real stuff was put in the Wildcat display window in the first half and it
was liked by the fans. The spectacular stars for Kentucky were Walker,
Brlttain, Gay, Hedges and Pegasus
Pullen. Maryville, too, showed a
cattisli adaptability for football for a
time," especially in the first quarter.
But the Maryville team was like the
montli of March. In the closing quarter they dropped out so fast the game
began to drag.
Reinforcements began to pour into
Kentucky's
trenches in the
second frame, the fresh men helping

last chalk line was crossed, but as he
was going down he slapped the ball
into the ready arms of Brit, who got
it over safely. The two backs had
indulged in some rapid thinking and
quick action. John Alford then kicked
goal.
The next series of plays which resulted in a touchdown, began when
one of the big Downing brothers intercepted a forward pass. The ball

demon all the while, was given his
cut. He made ten yards and it was
again State's first down. Gus Gay
gained six yards on the next play and
then Walker made four more. The
two hairs seemed to be working in alternation, for the boy with the title
of Augustus was given the next play
and when the ball was passed to him
he began running for cover like a

This pretty open
field spurt, which netted touchdown
number two, was one of the features

The fun began beforo time. When
the cable was loosened from its pole
for a test botli classes began to tug

thru, two Sophomores, Thompson and

Clifton Pond, whose banks were lined
witli some eight hundred people, terminated the controversy between the
clases, and with the emerging of the

to the scene of battle.
By the Hip of a coin, the sophomores
obtained the level side, forcing the
freshmen up over the hill, towards the

class was placed opposite the
setting sun so that their opponents
would not be blinded by the rellected
