Evanston and New Trier both finished the football season undefeated after fighting to a 6 to 6 tie, at Indian Hill, Thanksgiving Day, before a crowd of over 5,000. Evanston flashed through to a touchdown on the eighth play of the game, a pass from Captain Mellin to Mundelius. From then on the New Trierites were on the offensive most of the time; but, although they crossed: the enemy 20-yard line six times, no one could carry the ball across the well-guarded Orange and Blue goal line and they had to be satisfied with the six points that came on a pass from Hunter Hicks to Carl Hall in the second quarter. Thursday's game was the twelfth in the series between Evanston and New Trier. New Trier won only one of the twelve, last year's game. Evanston has won nine and two games have been ties. The other deadlock was in 1919, when each team made a touch- down and the extra point. Largest Crowd The crowd that saw the battle for the unofficial championship of the Suburban league was the largest in New Trier's history. The stands sur- rounding the field were packed before the game started and the great number of spectators who arrived after the game had started found points of vantage on nearby roofs, in the new gym, on the tops of cars and even in the trees. New Trier started the game poorly. The kickoff was fumbled on the 35- yard mark and Evanston, by means of four line plunges and three passes, went straight down the field to a touchdown. A short pass from Mellin to Mundelius, who was across the Grey-Green goal line, made the score. The place-kick for the extra point didn't go over the crossbar. Two fine end runs by Morrie Nel- son, one of 22 yards and the other from the 42-yard mark to within 25 yards of Evanston's goal, helped New Trier on its first march down the field. Al Richards and Tom Hicks pushed the ball to the Orange and Blue 17-yard line; but one of the too frequent fumbles gave it to Evanston and Solheim punted a safe distance away from his goal. Get Fine Interference Behind excellent interference, the Grey-Green backs made a more suc- cessful drive in the second quarter. Morrie Nelson started it by going through the line for 8 yards in the last minute of the second quarter. He started the second quarter in good shape by making a first down. Tom Hicks was tackled for a 10 yard loss on an attempt to pass; but a 15 yard penalty for Evanston put New Trier 5 yards to the good. A pass was blocked, but Morrie went through center for a few yards and an end run by Tom Hicks made another first down. After a few more yards had been gained on line plunges, Nelson threw a pass to Carl Hill, who missed it, but because of interference, New Trier was given the ball where it landed and a first down. The Evanston line put up a solid front to all runners, so Hunter Hicks tried a pass and Carl Halt caught it on the far side of the Orange and Blue goal line. Rossitter's place- kick was blocked and the score stood, 6 to 6, Nelson stopped an Evanston attack by intercepting a pass and taking the ball back to his 45-yard line. After two plays had made only 3 yards, Morrie again came to the fore, by punting over the visitor's goal line. Still Another Fumble After his team had kicked out to the 35-yard line, Mundelius got the ball again on a fumble and Evanston made a dangerous advance toward the home team's goal. Borncamp stop- ped it by blocking a pass from his 7-yard line and as they were unable to puncture the Grey-Green line, the Evanstonians elected to try a placé- kick. It failed to go over and from then on the ball was almost always in Evanston territory. Four more times the ball was pushed up to within a few yards of the Orange and Blue goal line, but each time the Evanstonians held for downs or gained the ball on a fumble.
