DANIEL BAKER VS. SCHREINER
After the journey to Abilene hard luck overtook the Hill-Billies. Several
of the best men were hurt the next week in practice, so it was a badly crippled
team that met Schreiner. Breaks went against Daniel Baker in a hard-fought
game and at the end Schreiner had the large end of a 6 to 0 score.
DANIEL BAKER VS. T. C. U.
This game was played at Fort Worth. The Daniel Baker boys were fighting
against a heavier and more experienced squad, but nevertheless they fought, and
the defense never weakened. Two touchdowns were scored; one as results
of a fumble, the other on a long pass. Daniel Baker threatened only once and
that was near the end of the game. A fumble ruined that chance. The result:
T. C. U. 12, Daniel Baker 0.
DANIEL BAKER VS. SUL ROSS
At Brownwood the Hill-Billies took on their next foe in the Mountain
Tornadoes. The Baker boys could gain at will out in the center of the field,
but the defense of the opposition would strengthen near the goal line. We put
over one touchdown in the third quarter, and although we threatened again
and again, this ended the scoring. Daniel Baker 7, Sul Ross 0.
DANIEL BAKER VS. AUSTIN COLLEGE
Sherman was the scene of the next encounter. The Goats went like a house
afire at first, but two costly fumbles and a well-played pass seemed to take part
of the fire from them. Still they fought hard against odds that they were never
able to overcome. When the whistle ended the game Austin had won it,
21 to 0.
DANIEL BAKER VS. ST. EDWARD'S
Daniel Baker met St. Edward's at San Antonio, and before a great crowd
of soldiers battled to a draw. This was one of the hardest fought games of
the season. Both teams were depending a great deal on their plays through the
line to win, but neither could seem to get the advantage until in the third quarter
St. Edward's recovered a fumble near Daniel Baker's goal and carried it over
for six points. In the last quarter Daniel Baker opened an aerial attack that
resulted in a touchdown. Here the gaining stopped and ended with the ball
in mid-field. Daniel Baker 6, St. Edward's 6.
