Quite good record for q school which
has not had team or played a game of
football for three years, this being the
first team since 1905 to represent Whit
comb High. Ali Of the team were practi-
cally inexperienced players and green at
the game at commencement Of season.
One scheduled game with Woodstock was
not played because Of unwillingness Of
Woodstock to keep its schedule.
The team had more games than any
previous team on its schedule, which
called for ten games and eight were actu-
ally played, losing one, tieing three and
winning four. The 1904 team, which is
looked back to as q champion team,
played seven games, winning a game
apiece from Montpelier, Randolph and
Rochester, two from Woodstock and
playing two no-scors tie games, one with
Randolph and one with Montpelier.
