KEASBEY, Nov. 10.-The- Keasbey
Junior football team again smashed
its way to victory over the Metuchep
eleven at Metuchen Saturday after
noon, the final score being 10.
With their regular lineup the Keas-
beyites. accompanied by a handful
of followers, journeyed to Metuchen
only to find that their opponents had
practically an entire new team, COM
posed of players from>the senior team
and high school. who outweighed the
locals fifteen to twenty pounds each.
Keasbey kicked to Metuchen on the
thirty yard line. Following several
unsuccessful rushes, Metuchen punted
and Keasbey received the ball.
The locals resorted to straight
football and by several rushes, soon
had the ball in their opponents ten
yard line. A forward pass Katrausky
to Romer, gave the locals a touch
down. Pfeiffer kicked the goal and
the score stood TO against Metuchen,
with the first period over.
Several new players entered h
game from the side ines. Before the
game ended practically the entire for
mer Metuchen senior team was in the
game.
After the first half each side fought
hard and several times the Metuchen
lads were within five and ten yards of
a touchdown, but Keasbey stood as
firm as a wall. The ball kept chang
ing from side to side, and neither
team was able 30 do any more scor-
ing.
