MOREHOUSE
(From Maroon Tiger,
Tigers Win from Fisk Bull
dogs by 13-6 Score
Emerging: from what seemed to have been
a permanent lethargy, the Tiger lashed with
vengeance a snarling Fisk Bulldog, whose
threats were many, but whose materializa
tions were few. Twice the awakening Bengal
crossed the Fisk goal and only once was the
pup able to find the elusive terminal which
seemed so near, but yet so far.
Morehouse scored early in the first half.
On the first play, “Big” Jones, All-Southern
bidder, who seemed much nearer the hos
pital than the gridiron, tore through tackle
for 25 yards to place the ball on the Fisk
20 yard line. On the third play, Kelly, by
some tall maneuvering, put the team on the
Fisk 3 yard line. On three successive plunges
“Big" Jones pushed his frame across the
marker for the first touchdown of the game.
Optimism, however, seemed shortlived, for
the Morehouse men. After the next few
minutes of everyday football, pandemonium
suddenly broke loose in the Fisk team. On
the Morehouse 43 yard line, Fisher, on two
plays, gained 12 yards. Bostic slipped over
guard for 6 yards to place it on the More
house 25 yard line. On the next play Mor
ton got 8 yards, but immediately, Fisk was
penalized to the 22 yard line for off-side.
The momentous Morton, coming back with
terrific force, carried the ball on two plays
the entire distance to score number one for
Fisk. Bostic missed goal.
See-sawing was paramount from that point
until the fourth quarter when Fisk, on their
own 20 yard line, tried a lateral pass which,
unfortunately for them, landed in the arms
of the errant Evans, who galloped 20 yards
for the final touchdown of the game.
Morton, Fisher, Hall, Coleman and Alex
ander were outstanding for Fisk, while effer
vescent Baugh, Crippled Jones, Red Smith,
Kelly, McFall and Alex Reid brought joy
to the hearts of the Morehouse rooters.

Talladega Defeats Morehouse
7-0
Playing far “off form”, but still good,
and lucky enough to keep a fairly strong
'Dega team from scoring for 57 minutes,
Morehouse was finally beaten in the last
three minutes of play when Speed, elusive
'Dega halfback, romped 45 yards through a
Tiger team to score the only touchdown of
the game. Dizzy Pigrom completed the dis
aster with a perfect drop-kick to make the
final score 7-0.
From the Morehouse point of view, it was
a shabby exhibition of a football game. Con
stantly was Talladega down in the Bengal’s
territory and, but for the fine defensive play
ing of Cage and McFall, would have scored
early in the first half. The “boys from the
house” were just off form and they missed
so many tackles that the line began to re
semble a sieve. Luck seemed to be with
Morehouse; however, penalties on Talladega
were numerous and the game would have
ended in a deadlock had not Speed evaded
the entire team in his 45 yard gallop.
In comparison with the defense, the of
fense was practically the same or even. Only
two first downs were made by Morehouse,
one of them being a rather sensational 22
yard run by Big Jones.
For Talladega, Sodie White at center;
Wright, Speed and Pigrom in the backfield
were sensational; while the satellites of More
house were McFall, “Big” Jones and Cage.

Faculty-Varsity Game Ends
Soccer Season
On Saturday afternoon, December 3, equal
interest from faculty and students was cen
tered in the soccer field when, exactly at
2:30, the students kicked off, offering a
great challenge to the faculty and staff mem
bers, who made up the opposing team, to
fight a good fight.
It goes without saying that the teams were
evenly matched. Each team played the game
with such force that there ceased to be a
struggle for victory. It was a struggle to
hold one’s own. The game ended in a score
less tie (0-0).
