Ltttto.
On a muddy and slippery field Middle
bury colleges light football team was de-
feated to 0 here Saturday afternoon by
the heavy aggregation from Norwich
University. In the first half neither side
was able to advance the ball consistently
and resorted to booting the ball, Norwich
profiting by the exchange of punts and
also by trick plays and outside kicks.
Toward the end of the half, Norwich
gained the ball on Middlebury's 1S-yard
line, but, unable to gain, attempted a
kick from placement, the ball going wide
and low. Tie half ended with tie ball in
the middle OF the field.
In the second half great 30 yard run
of Reid put Norwich within striking dis
tance of Middlebury's goal. On the next
play Barney broke through the line and
ran to the yard line, where he was
downed by Miller. Here Middlebury
made game stand and held three Nor
wich onslaughts and regained the ball,
Fisher punting at once. Reid ran the ball
back to the 20-yerd line and Norwich
took up again her heavy line plays and
finally brought the ball to the fve-yard
line. Here Middlebury made another
great fight but after the third attempt
Barney was seen to have the ball just
over the line.
For Norwich, Reid and White played
great game Reid's long lodging runs
