The quarters were limited to twelve and one-half minutes. Besides being shy five of the regular players, the localteam played Gilmer was not overly familiar with the signals and fumbles were made on two or three occasions.

Three of the local men were hurt during the game but remained in it to the end. Heineman, playing right half, received a bruised shoulder in the first quarter. Kelly at quarterback, also had his ear lacerated in a tackle. McCreary, full back, had a finger knocked out of place when he stiff armed Gilmer's full back.

In the first quarter, Longview kicked off. Gilmer made the first down and another before the end of the quarter. The ball went over and Longview started a series of line plunges and passes that fail to materalize.

The second, third, and fourth quarters were virtually without features except for the straight football. Sutton, left end, Jones, right end, and McHaney, right guard, were the stars of the day. Aside from good linemen, these three starred in the tackles.

Killingsworth, right tackle, covered a couple of fumbles in the last half. Lawerence did some good work in opening up Gilmer's lines for Longview tackles. England also opened holes through Gilmer's line which were not suffiecent to allow Longview to score but nevertheless prevented Gilmer from scoring.

Kelly and Rembert made some good end runs but not much was gained from these.
