team played a man In green sweater
named Mahoney who halls from Roches-
ter. N. H., and belongs TO the Athletic
club of that llaoe and ten or dozen
other men Of the same club. The final
score was As to and the zsro should be
made very large one without any
quirks in 1t. The man in the green
sweater Is particularly mentioned be-
cause he was about the only man Of the
Rochester team who could be counted
as being In the same class with the =.
A. G. players. He did about all the play
ing that was done. was everywhere in ev-
idence and showed himself to be q very
good man.
The crowd was large and rather disap-
pointed at the tamsnesI of the game.
The p. A. q. players had good after
noon OF practice but it Is doubtful IL 1t
did them very much good in preparing
them for the great contest of the year
with combination team from the New
tomne Athletic club and from the New
ton A. G. which Is scheduled hers for
November 18th. The p. A. O. men
played hard at first but became very care
less and slow towards the last end of the
game and took little interest In 1t.
Some good plays were made by the
home team in the course Of the afternoon.
Almost every nan had chance to try
his hand at touchdown and all of
them had runs to their credit from twen-
ty to forty yards during the game. All
kinds of combinations were tried and all
manner OF plays attempted. Macreadie,
the younger, filled the position as full
back. He Is not as strong man In THE
position as is Halliday but he showed up
very we'll. His weakness Is In his goal
kicking but be punts fairly well, Smith
WAS sick and though he played the first
part Of tho game 1t was thought best for
him to leave before the end of the first
half and Coombs was put In his place.
Coombs seems able to I'LL any position
aud fill 1t we'll He played q good game
at centsr and worked as hard as he al
ways does. Kelley aud Chapman played
the first half as the half backs ami their
a strong combination and equal about
anything behind the line that the club
has ever had. Twitchell took Chapman 8
place In tie second half and showed up
remarkably well. Twltchell 10 back
with plenty OF go In him and lots OF
sand. He keeps his eye on the ball all
the time and is quick and has good
knowledge OF this game.
The p. A. G. is more than we'll sup
piled with backs this season and should
show up we'll before it comes to an end.
Sullivan was at quarter back Satur-
day. Johnny is all right In this position
but in the last part of the game Satu.
Gay was trille slow. This was because
the entire team began to take things easy
and all of them let up good deal
towards the last end of the game. Sulli-
van has not played much this season
but is In his old tins form and is as nc
tive as ever. He Will fill this place we'll
for some of those old time forty yard rams
which once made his playing SO notice.
able in the high school days. Tracy, an
old Deering player, was tried Saturday
afternoon at right tackle and did we'll.
Pickett was at the other tackle and
during the afternoon did some good
work. In fact the entire team ON Satur-
day was very strong one and shows the
good material which the club has to
draw upon.
The Rochester Athletic team was CON-
posed OF very light men through whose
line the p. A. O. men tumbled at will.
They didn't have the ball more than two
the game and when they..hadsthey didn't
seem able to keep it or do anything with
it. Their work was entirely on the de-
fensive and they didn't show very good
knowledge of this. The imam In the
green sweater" named Mahoney, began
the game at full back, but finished 1t at
left guard. He was everywhere in evil
dence and seemed to do about all the
tackling that was done, broke up all the
plays that were broken up, when the
visitors had the ball did all the running
with it and in fact seemed to play the en-
tire game. Brook played at right guard
during the early part OF the game and
was as good man as Mahoney but he
was injured quite severely before the first
half was ended and was Obliged to retire.
In mixup Brock got cut on his fore
head which requires two stitches to be
taken and of course this kept him out of
the game.
The game was not very exciting and the
final score was As to o.
