ing as follows: Will Perry and Mike Dris
lane, ends; Luther Miller and Will Dris-
lane, tackles; Manning and Mcguire,
guards; Lynch, centre; Devine, quarter
back; O'Donnell and j. j. O'Neill, half
backs; O'Lare, fullback. This team hard
ly expected to make formidable showing,
simply going into the game ''fOr the fun OF
it," The Shelburne Falls team was sub
stantially the one that played the 40 game
here. The first half was 80 minutes. For
Is minutes Shelburne Falls did not score.
O'Donnell was playing strong game. In
nine downs he had made eight tackles
when he twisted the ligaments of his leg
and had to retire. He will be disabled
three or four weeks. Perry then went
back of the line and Welch in as guard end.
In few moments Welch retired and the
remainder of the game was played with 10
men. The score at the end of the first
half was IA, and in the last half of 20 min
utes Shelburne Falls had added "a more,
winning 3S to O. The ball was twice taken
to Shelbune Falls 15-yard line.
