The two rival football teams of
South Worcester, the Bradfords and
Fultons, met yesterday morning on
the Sutton Lane grounds and the Full
tons went down in defeat. The Full
tons appeared to be winners in the ear
ly stages of the game but they had not
reckoned on the speed and endurance
of their opponents who, if they were
lighter, played a faster and more sci
entific game than their heavier oppo-
nents. The speed of the men who play
ed back of the Bradford line was twice
questioned, once when Charles Dins-
dale picked up the ball when one of
the players of his own side had fun
bled and ran So yards for a touchdown
and again when Quarterback Callahan
caught the ball on a punt from Mott
and ran from the Bradford's 40 yard
linc to Fulton's goal.
In the first half Mott kicked off for
the Fultons and after two minutes of
play Charles Dinsdale secured the ball
on tumble on the Bradford's % yard
Line and ran to the Fulton's goal for a
touchdown. Fred Dinsdale failed in a
try for goal.
Callahan on the first lineup after the
!
started on run for another touch
| down to the Fulton's goal but he was
| overtaken by Levine and brought to
| the ground. The Referee ordered the
ball brought back to where it was first
down and Callahan's long run netted
the Bradfords no gain. The Fultons
got the ball ON downs. On the first
! play Levine was sent around the Brad
| ford's left end and had what looked
to be a good chance to score but he
| was thrown by Galloway and the ball
| fell out of his hands and was picked up
J by Fred Dinsdale on the Bradford s
| As yard line. Time was called with the
| BALI in the centre of the field in the
I Fultons hands.
In the second half John Powers
| kicked off for the Bradfords to Gill
| more who was downed after he had
advanced five yards. The ball went
| to the Bradfords on downs and with
the good work of the Dinsdale brothers
| the ball was advanced to the Fultons'
| seven yard line. Here an argument
| was raised over the decision of Unp-
| pire Styles, one of the Bradford play
| ers claiming that Styles had money
| bet on the game and that he was try
| ing to prevent the Bradfords from
winning If he could and in a minute
! there was free fight going on.
| Time we>5 taken out while the fight
| was in progress and on resuming play
| Scudds was pushed over for the Sec
| ond touchdown after ten minutes play
in the second half. Callahan missed an
easy try for goal and made the score
10 to 0 in Bradfords' favor.
| On the kickoff Mott kicked behind
| the goal post where it was picked up
by c, Dinsdale and brought out IL
yaTds before he was downed. The Full
! IONS held and the BradfOrds were fore
| ed to kick but made a bad attempt and
the ball was blocked by Fulton man
who fell on it on the Bradfords seven
yard line. On the second down Foisy
was showed over for a touchdown, the
| first for the Fultons and what proved
| to be the last. Gilmore kicked an easy
| goal making the score, Bradfords 10,
| Fultors 6.
After the ball had been kicked off by
| Powers, the Bradfords held for downs
and Mott was forced to punt The
punt was caught by Callahan on the
| Bradford As yard line and by clever
! lodging he eluded the Fulton players
and without any interference ran to
| the Fultons' goal line for a touchdown.
F. Dinsdale missed an easy goal and
