like football players. The home team
kicked of and the ball was returned a
short way before the runner was downed.
Then began series of line bucks and
trick plays which soon carried the ball
over the line for Pembina and goal was
kicked. The home team again kicked
off and the same thing was repeated.
The Pembina team then kicked of but
the Grafton boys could not make their
gains and soon lost the ball and the
visitors succeeded in making another
touch down before the half was up,
making the score II to in their favor.
The second half the home boys seemed
to get together little better and their
opponents succeeded in making but one
touch down and failed at goal, making
the final score % too. Both the teams
showed the result of hard work, but the
visitors play indicated more practice.

clean from start to finish and everyone
worked hard. The home boys did their
