into the fray as if their lives depended
upon winning the game in the first
chucker. They fairly carried the chal-
lengers off their feet by the dash and
vigor Of the attack and sheer aggres-

The Englishmen were fairly stunned
by the fierceness Of the assault, and
the crowd leaped TO its collective feet

Larry" Waterbury played such a
desperate game in riding off Captains
Edwards and Cheape in the second
period that finally he was penalzed

then the challengers, reused to fury,
rushed the ball up the field and Cap

stroke from near the middle Of the
field, the ball just dribbling across the

Cheape.
