TROJANS WIN G TO 0
FROM LIBBY TEAM
The Troy High School football team
won their second victory from Libby
last Friday in a very interesting game
at the local field by a score of six
to nothing.
The only touchdown of the game was
made in the first quarter, in a forward
pass play, from Lindsey to Sather.
During nearly all the game it ap
peared to spectators that the Troy team
out-played their opponents, playing
more of an offensive game, while the
Libby boys put up a very strong de
fense. Both teams tried many passes,
many of them were not completed, and
both teams showed some expert punt
ing.
The Troy lineup is äs follows.—
R. Lindsey, R. end; Savage, R tackle;
Thomas, R. guard; Wilcox, center;
White, L. guard; Holmes, L, tackle;
Sather, L. end; Lindsey, Q. back; Cole,
R, H. back; Durfey, L. H. back; Coff
man, F, back.
Substitutions, J. Vorhees, L. G.; G.
Bracey, L. G.; E. Fisher, center; B.
Nelson, R. G.; L. White, L. E.
