almost impossible for the ball players to
keep their foothold. At the outset Spauld-
ing started fast playing and rushed the
Montpelier lads off their feet. A number
of forward passes were tried by both
sides, but for some reason they were sell
dom worked in the way they were meant
to be. Montpelier's line did not seem to
be able to hold Spaulding, as time after
time the latter made long gains through
it and not once were they held for
downs. The game was rather loosely
played, both sides making many fumbles.

on Spaulding's 20-yard line. After one
rush, Hancock again tried a forward
pass which was fumbed, but they re-
covered. Again only one rush was tried
before Hancock punted, sending the ball
down to Gordon for about 45 yards. The
ball was well down the field but on few
rushes Spaulding again had it up in line
