Accompanied by Coaches Hoernle and
Early, the football squad from Goddard
seminary set out fol Rutland this morn
! ing TO play the first of two games with

Peters has proved a worthy adversary
/ in the past and the issue of to-day's con
| test was regarded as being very much in
doubt. The coaches expected to start the
game with the same lineup which fig
ured in the opening stages of the Colby
game week ago, with plenty of reserves
in case of need.
