THE ATHENAEUM
witnessed a gam|e on Morehouse field. Talladega had many rooters,
for the students and players of Atlanta University turned out en
masse to watch the Tigers, whom| they nteet on Nov. 18.
Talladega failed to show the forirf that was expected, although
the Alabamans played a good gamje. Edwards, the giant Alabama
fullback, was unable to show his wares, only in the kicking game.
His punts were high and long. The visitors only touchdown came
from/ a perfectly executed ingenious play by Alexander. “Pep” Walk
er was carrying the ball loosely when he ran into a bunch of Talladega
players. Alexander emerged with the ball and to the surprise of the
spectators ran 15 yards for a touchdown. The Tigers scored in the
second quarter after they gained eight successive first downs from
their own 10-yard line. In this sarrfe quarter Morehouse recovered a
fumble by Gordon on his own 30-yard line. Successive line bucks
carried the ball over again. The last score came in the third quarter
when the Talladega center, on the fourth down and kick formation,
passed the ball 5 yards over Edward’s head, the ball rolling 35 yards
before he recovered and was downed by Irving on Talladega’s 1-yard
line. Perkins carried it over on the first play. “Kee Wee” Irving was
in every play. Several times he crossed over to the other side of the
line and downed Edwards behind the line of scrimmage.
