THE BLUFFTON NEWS» BLUFFTON, OHIO
Bluffton college’s Homecoming tilt
next Saturday afternoon, their first
appearance of the year on the Har
mon field gridiron, will pit the
luckless Beavers against Findlay’s
rampaging gridders.
With five successive wins to their
credit and an impressive total of
150 points so far this fall, the Oil
ers have the best record of any Ohio
collegiate team.
Bluffton College Will Play Findlay
In Homecoming Game Here Saturday
Last week the Findlay crew tuned
up for Bluffton with an 18 to 15
conquest over Defiance, the first
time this season they have been ex
tended to marching to victory.
Only 39 points have been scored
against the Oilers in their five tilts,
an average of less than eight per
game and the Beavers offense is un
dergoing a lot of polishing this
week in an effort to come up with
an attack capable of cracking the
defensive alignment of their old
foes.
Bluffton High’s defense craeked in
the fourth quarter of a hard-fought
contest at Harmon field last Friday
night, and St. Marys added three
more touchdowns to one scored in
the first half as the visitors downed
the Pirates by a score of 26 to 0.
In suffering their fourth straight
league setback the Pirate offense
was impotent all the way except for
a brief first-quarter fiareup when
the locals moved to the St. Marys
15-yard line where an attempted
field goal was blocked.
At the same time, Bluffton’s de
fense was performing in stalwart
fashion, and St. Marys on its part
had been unable to make a scoring
bid until the first half virtually had
ended. Then with the ball on their
own 35, a St. Marys pass clicked,
and an end broke loose to romp 65
yards for a touchdown.
Bluffton held well again through
out the third period, evcept for the
closing minutes when the visitors
started a 58-yard touchdown march,
climaxed after the start of the
fourth stanza when the St. Marys
fullback drove over from the one
yard stripe.
For sheer feather-bedding, thia mock
work proposal takes the cake. But it
Is only one of 44 “rules” demands filed
by the leaders of the operating unions.
If all these demands were granted,
they would cost the railroads an added
BILL10N DOLLARS TKAR.
Increased Wages, Too
On top of these “rules” changes, the
leaders of the operating unions have
filed an additional demand for a wage
increase of over 30 per cent If granted,
this would bo an added cost to the rail*
roads of
$400,000,000
One favorable asject in the situa
tion is the fact that Bluffton ordin
arily plays one of its best games
of the year against Findlay, and
performing before a home audience
for the first time may be an incent
ive for the Beavers to come up with
a better performance than that seen
in the team’s first four tilts.
Last week at Ashland, Bluffton
made a ball game of it for nearly
two quarters, before being worn
down by a high-powered offensive
team that finally rolled to a 42 to 6
victory.
Ashland tallied 14 points in the
first quarter, but Bluffton came back
into the running in the opening min
utes of the second quarter with a
touchdown by Alderfer to trail, 14
to 6. From that point, however,
Ashland started rolling to garner
15 points in the second period none
in the third, and then tapering off
with 13 in the fourth stanza.
Muffton High Drops'League Game
To St. Marys By Score Of 26-0
From that point, St. Marys was
in Bluffton’s backyard the rest of
the way with the third touchdown
set up when St. Marys returned a
