Il
Eleven husky foot bali players from
Kimball Union Academy the same team
which walloped Goddard at Meriden, n.
H., a short time ago BY the score 81 ii
10 left the local campus in the mid
die Of the second half Of an exciting
game yesterday afternoon not only dis
gruntled at the officials but defeated as
Iwell. When Capt. Wood Of the visiting
team withdrew bis men six points had
been scored against them the first time
tha Kimball Union has had its goal line
crossed this season and the first time
it has been scored upon. Up to yester-
tday's game the visitors had rolled up
235 points without allowing their oppon-
ents to score once II was regretted
that Il III a. left the field, because an
otherwise fine game was marred II
was not at al unlikely FOO. that the
visitors would have scored if they had
stuck to their work.
The game furnished for a fair,sized
audience a startling reversal of foot ball
1 form. How team that but short time
previously had been defeated and crush
led can turn about and hold the former
victors TO a standstill and even defeat
them is one Of the surprises OF foot
Eball. The Kimbal Union boys were not
lover confident; in fact, despite their
easy victory at the first meeting, they
ldeclared before the game that they had
flask on their hands. And it certainly
Twas, as the results showed Goddard,
lhaving everything to gain, went into the
game with unexpected fierceness and
simply rushed the New Hampshire boys
Ioff their feet in the first half. Although
soutweignhed man for man by eonsid-
cradle margin they got the jump on their
more bulky opponents and by hard, ag-
tgressiye attack forced the heavier line
Ibaok, two thirds the length Of the field
land over its own line for the only touch
dovn Of the game
Capt. Dunham and Cannell were large
lly responsible for this magnificent show
ing although the line men did their work
lWel. Quarterback Martin attempted
some of the runs which put Montpelier
Tout Of the game Saturday but he was
lsmothered at nearly every attempt Full
back Turner was occasionally fired into
the line, but The real ground gaining was
Iby Dunham and Cannell particularly the
former who made the longest gains for
bis side, ripping Of two ten-yard advan-
ces in tile march toward a touch down
The best work biz the visitors was done
10y Merrill at right half He made one
pretty run Of fifty yards before being
lpinned To the earth.
The first half was all with the home
team. The visitors kicked poorly to
Fraser on the 25-yard line and the ball
was rushed in FIVE yards Then the
home team settled down to good hard
work, The heavy visitors were powerless
to stop the steady plugging, and straight
down the field marched the wearers Of
the red and white until Cannell was
forced through right tackle for the
touchdown. The same player kicked
a pretty goal, and the score was six
, to nothing.
The crowd gradually recovered from
Its amazenent
Martin kicked of 10 Miller who all
lowed the ball to 90 over his head. Mill
, ler got it but was downed on the 10
yard line. The Goddard line stifIened
Immediately and the visitors were forced
TO rehnquish the ball on their own ten
yard line. They proceeded to give God
dard the same medicine, however, and
Martin fell back for field goal. His
try was blocked and Kimball fell on
, the ball After a few rushes time was
, called with the BAH on Goddard's 80
! yard line
The second half was only minutes
long owing to r. U. AS Withdrawing.
Goddard kicked of and the visitors held
the ball until they left the field, start
ling from the 15-yard line At almost
tho first attempt to gain he ball was
fulnbled and Pike fell on it. The ref
cree gave the ball back to Kimball be-
cause it had been declared down Then
the X. Il. a. attack got agoing and
aided by Mefrills 5Q-yard run they had
the bali on Goddard's 25yard line when
/ Referee Carswell saw holding by the
visitors. lie penalized them IS yards
! and gave the ball to the home team.
The wrangle started over this, the vis-
! itors finally leaving the field with eight
minutes left to play. It was the third
down with two yards TO make when
the referees decision was given.
In almost the last rush Brown Of the
Goddard team sustained a broken collar
) bone He did not know the seriousness
OF the injury until he went 70 the
