Skinner starred for Roosevelt while Bamner carried Saline’s lone score. Saline’s defense clamped down except for Bamner’s late foray, and Saline suffered multiple injuries as Roosevelt dominated with aggressive blocking and tackling.

Bud MacArthur notes after the Roosevelt fracas Belleville faces a pivotal game with Belleville's Tiger struggling to win this fall. Bredernitz vacancy widens the offensive burden on Bamer while Saline protection falters.
