In the pirates Lead by half a Cam Pennant deciding series opens at Chicago today . Armstrong Well folks those maligned bomber boys met the Chal Lenge and overcame the obstacle which looked so insurmountable a couple of weeks Back. They showed they had the poise smart Ness resourcefulness and Superb condition so necessary to any club hoping to yell gang Way in a streamlined conference. And they achieved their saturday matinee distinction the hard Way too. They out rushed the Champion rushers and amazingly found themselves out passed in the matter of Yards gained. But they most certainly were outsmarted As they checked in with a sturdy massive performance in a game which had customers sitting right on the Edge of the planks. By Way of Deropha sizing the Triumph they went out and stopped the Man who was regarded As easy to handle As a Cage crammed with hungry wild cats. Leo Danaher was harassed and tormented As the willing and inspired line and an Alert bomber secondary pounced out to Greet him. Leo never once backed away from the reception committee but Only twice did he bust Loose for his customary jogs. And those transpiring Winni Eggers dragged their weary bodies off the Grasshopper nipped Gridiron in High glee. They lad stopped Danaher. They had beaten Regina in Regina. They had taken on the foe at catch weights and had emerged with their lives. The big bad Wolf Story had been exploded. Coach Threlfall beamed Tom ear to ear. Manager Joe Ryan had that where Are those curb look on his face. President Isard exuded a spirit of oily camaraderie and the Winnieg cheering Section raced for the hotel believing it had seen the Best lame Ever and joyfully screamed or room service. V look at the comparative Fig ures of the two Regina Winni Peg games. In the first in Yards Rushing it was Regina 204, Winnipeg saturday s it was Regina 95, Winnipeg 122 in first Downs it was Regina 8, Winnipeg 7 in saturday s it was Regina 11, Winnipeg 7 in Forward passes first game it was Regina 0, Winnipeg 7 in saturday s it was Regina 7 out of 14, Winnipeg 5 out of 8 Yards gained by passing first game Regina. 0, Winnipeg 118 in sat urday s it was Regina 146, Winnipeg 108. Well what do they prove they certainly Don t prove that a Regina s Pursuit of the West Ern championship is ended. It is still six of one and half a dozen of the other. The boys on the roof tops had better get. Their chests out. Too far and that goes for the athletes too. Methinks the cocky roughriders underrated Only the men of Threlfall but coach Threlfall As Well. Monday s Post Mort Ems will reveal we think a More wholesome respect for a bomber foe which suddenly showed a pronounced dislike to being pushed around one of those 110 Yard Fields. Saturday afternoon the bombers met running plays quickly and fashioned their hard earned Victory with a display of hard hitting calculating football. They made mistakes but Seldom made the same one More than once. It was the variety of their attack and the Resolute deportment of the boys up front that caught our Eye. Griffing would have made an appreciable difference to the rider cause if he had been in harness. His ability to keep his artillery men right up on the trigger would have been some thing to contend with. Then it must be remembered that Cleveland never returned for the second half. Was hot overhead and it was hot Clown below but two of the hottest Forward passes that have been chucked in this conference this year were thrown at Park de Young saturday afternoon. The Stevenson to Nicklin Peg was just As artistic As it was useful and the Lander to Danaher whizzes was nothing Short of breath taking. Both were Good for touchdowns and were Worth the Price of admission by themselves. It was a dirty played game but was still no Pink Tea. The game itself was Well handled to our Way of think ing referee Grant Drew the Wrath of Large sections of Regina fans for pacing off penalties against Regina the. Majority of which he did Call but the statistics show that Winnipeg lost 15 More Yards through the Heel and toe method had either team been kicking on first Downs when favored with the wind it would have precipitated no end of trouble around the goal posts when Art finally did Cut Loose with one it had the desired effect Art insists Greg called that one in the huddle by the Way Steve did a capable punting Job averaged 43 Yards failure of a Winnipeg Back to cover specified territory permitted Alex Shellogg to Block those first two punts but the Hole was quickly plugged Sheley s touchdown looked As simple As it sounded Over the air but Wayne did a few acrobatic dances in Side stepping a couple of and was Given interference by James and Kabat who bust through a gaping Hole you re Pete r Dawson Ltd.
