MOREHOUSE BATTLES LIVINGSTONE TO TIE SCORE
Salisbury, N. C., October 13, 1923—Morehouse and Livingstone
played a 6—6 tie game before a crowd of less than 1000 today. More
house made ten first downs to three for Livingstone. But Livingstone
gained from 15 to 30 yards on each exchange of punts. Meeks, tackle,
was the outstanding star of the game being the main reason for Liv
ingstone being able to hold Morehouse three times when within 15
yards of the goal. Jordan of Morehouse kicked to Livingston’s 10
yard line. Livingstone returned 10 yards. Livingstone failed to gain
ten yards. Franklin of Morehouse was downed in his tracks on the
first play. He then, circled left end for five yards. Jordan added two
more through the line. After an exchange of punts the first quarter
ended 0—0.
The second quarter began with the ball in Livingstone’s posses
sion on her 28 yard line. Coach Harvey sent Tondee in for Franklin.
Livingstone seemed to put on new vigor and put over the first touch
down of the game, by blocking Morehouse’s attempt to kick and re
covering behind the goal line. Livingstone failed to kick goal.
In the second half Livingstone was completely outclassed. Ton-
dee played well through out the quarter. Score 6—0.
Morehouse soon put over a touchdown in the fourth quarter.
Starr then ran 40 yards on a fake play to the 15 yard line. Here
Livingstone only escaped being defeated by delaying the game with
continued calling time out despite repeated warnings of referee. The
game ended with the ball in Livingstone’s possession on her own two
yard line. —Dock Jones.
