on the Defensive

Goddard seminary triumphed over the
fast st. Peters A. A. eleven ut the camp
us Saturday afternoon by the score of
7 to 0. Darkness was closing down over
the chalk lined rectangle in the last pc
riod of play and so far as the scoring
went, the teams battled pretty much TO
deadlock after the opening quarter.
Smith scored the big counter for Goddard
by penetrating through center for a dis
lance of nearly % yards, Mcintosh kick
ing the goal The effect on the Rutland
team as well as the players was eleetri
cal, as no one seemed to be looking for a
touchdown at that moment and the hap
penings of the first period mp to the
touchdown had not indicated that there
would be any scoring. Clever footwork
and almost uncanny faculty for picking
the holes enabled Smith TO go over the
line.
There were frequent interruptions on
account of injuries with the St Peters
outfit usually contributing to the injured
list Tavarelli sprained his knee in the
third period and had to be removed from
the field, In the last quarter Tree got
bruised so badly that he. too. was car
ried to the rear. With two of its most
versatile backs in the base hospital st.
Peters nevertheless continued to play
spirited game and once-.it was in the
fourth-a steady march down the field
toward the Goddard goal line began to
look like touchdown when Cannon FUN
bled. In the second period. once in the
third and again in the fourth Goddard
came near to scoring and as matter of
fact, the team played on the defensive
most of the time.
st. Peters opened up with versatile
attack and if it could have continued its
aggressive streak OF the first period
things might have gone badly for God
dard. But Coach kinneys men may be
said to have arrived" in most of the
elementary phases of football and some
of the more intricate phases. II was a
team that has gained wonderfully on the
defensive in the past fortnight, team
alive to opportunities and except for a
bad habit OF handling the ball loosely, it
is better than an average hilltop team.
St Peters fumbled, too, costly fumbles
the men from Rutland made. and be it
said for Goddard that its warriors are
more alert when there is free tumble
than any team that has come to the
campus this season.
st. Peters used the forward pass more
effectively and Coach Kinney has yet to
devise an adequate defense Yet it may |
be said in passing that the same problem |
is perplexing a good many coaches who
lay claim to more knowledge Of the game |
that any of the Goddard mentors. The |
