Kept Norwich Second Team
Away from the Goal
Line
WHILE SEMINARIANS
PILED UP II POINTS
School Boys Showed Marked
Superiority over the
Collegians

Preparatory school football triumphet
over the collegiate brand again yesterday
when Coach Hoernle's warriors playeC
circles around the second team from Nor
witch, winning by n to score. Wealth
er that discriminating judges would have
| selected for baseball prevailed and the
seminary campus was lined with specta
| tors as it has not been lined since the
opening game of Goddard's schedule
Boston and the Philles, flinging down
the scabbard in Beantown, did not keep
the whole of fandom downtown, and
while the game was not of ealibre TO
provoke pandemonum or tumultuous
horseplay on the sidelines, it was an en-
thusiastic crowd that saw the schoolboys
scamper away with another game.
Beef and Drawn were the principal
playing properties of the military men.
Two onside kicks and straight forward
pass, the latter for a gain relatively
slight, netted the visitors practically the
only ground gained in the first three pc
RODS. In the last quarter, Norwich stock
took very brief brace, but costly FUN
bles near the center of the field restored
the ball to those of the footbalists who
had grown quite accustomed to working
1t through three periods, Against an
attack that seemed fierce enough to carry
ever so far, the seminary line held like
solid rock and again and again the tow
ering Norwich backs were forced to re-
treat. 1t was a retreat without strategy,
for the backheld OF the invading team
seemed to have developed penchant for
poor generalship on occasion when quick
thinking would have sent the ball out of
dangerous territory. Once or twice the
seminary team made the same mistake
that of trying an open play when TO
kick would have been more profitable.
Several varsity looking faces were
lined up on the Norwich side when the
game began, but nothing daunted by the
show of size, Goddard started in with
the same display of energy that marked
its first forward movement against the
Vermont seconds Saturday. The forward
pass was used successfully in the first
quarter and the Norwich line was pene-
trated frequently for heavy gains. Con
nor carried the ball over for the first
touchdown and Faulkner kicked the goal.
Before the quarter ended. Norwich had
tried unsuceessfully to gain the distance
and the bali shifted to the seminary
side. The defense of the invaders seemed |
to steady bit toward the end of the |
period, but Conner was enabled to swing |
around the end for second touchdown
ere the whistle sounded.
Two unusually versatile ends figured /
IN the point making in the second period
when Wiley and A. Goslant were sent |
over the line in rather dizzy succession |
Tor touchdowns that pushed the total up
10 four. With the game well in hand
situations that developed repeatedly
yaye the seminary general opportunities
galore for setting in motion PLAYS that
would not have been tried otherwise.
Norwich remained on the defensive most
II the time and with more wide open
lttack Goddard in all probability could
nave increased its margin

eceiving the ball, had made last stand
With the hope Of gaining back territory
hat was virtually lost through the sem
nary's ability 20 get down on the ball.
'or a few moments IL looked as though
Norwich backs would ram their way
through the opposing lines for dangerous
aims, but the line held too firmly and
he leather was presently headed for the
,orwich goal again. Faulkner and Will
~ executed a nice pass In the last few
moments and the latter would have
cored had he not slipped. Conner
rought the ball 20 within a few feet Of
he goal line, but the end came too soon
o permit a farther advance.
