Goddard seminary and the freshmen of
the University Of Vermont concluded
with Goddard the decided winner. The
score for the football game ended 200;
and this score symbolizes the superior
| ity of Goddard in the rugby tactics
This explicit mention Of rugby is made
because there were many fistic encoun-
ters among the opposing players This,
together with the wet, muddy field,
prolonged the game considerably.
The home team eleanly outplayed
the freshman team of the university.
and Barre followers had an opportunity
to see some good players in action,
especially among the Goddard men In
speed, plays and line work they were
the superior This was the second time
the Goddard team had played in a
school game on the home grounds, most
of their games having been out of
town. From the very instant the whis-
tie blew for the first kickoff they
played with energy and great amount
of pep" and fight
At the outset Goddard kicked to the
university men. Hinchey of Vermont
carried the ball to the 40-yard line vi
entity. America Polli the Goddard
right halfbaek, broke through the line
on the next play, causing them to lose
several yards Failing to make the
down, punt was made, Goddard Their
attempted a long pass which failed
but Wood ploughed through the lines
for 30-yard gain on the next play.
Kelly dropkicked from the % yard line,
the ball going wide Of the goal The
ball was then taken to the 20-yard line
as Vermont's ball Again that team
failed to make the down. The ball
went to Goddard.
Left Tackle A. Thompson on an end
run gained Is yards. Kelly then made
long pass to Tug" Slayton, who
caught the ball and slipped when about
seven yards from the goal Sullivan
made the first touchdown by breaking
through tackle with his characteristic
hard line plunges. All during the game
he was a conspicuous ground gamer,
for he is light Of foot and keen Of eve
when going through defensive lines.
Thompson kicked the first goal.
Just as the home team worked in the
| first period so it continued through the
other three l5-minute quarters In the
second period another touchdown was
made by Sullivan after he picked his
way through his opponents on the 10
yard line Thompson failed on the sec
ond kick.
In the third period Goddard received,
but on account of the wet heavy ball
the kiekoffs were low and short Sui
Ivan and Gaughan shortened the space
between their line and the goal posts
by end runs, the latter gaining nearly
Is yards Three successive downs were
made and when about two yards from
the goal line the ball was lost to Bur-
! ington after the last down measured
| Just six inches short Of the 10 yards,
Quarterback Kendrick Of Vermont
then pretended to punt but ran with
the ball, gaining about 10 yards. He
was forced to punt, however, soon after
and the wet heavy ball whirled but a
few yards in the air Here Freeman
was substituted at left halfback for
| Kelly. His effectiveness apparent,
/ for he, with Sullivan, brought the ball
again near the goal Sullivan made
/ the third and last touchdown. Thomp-
son kicked the last goal.
In the last period the Vermont men
came back with flash of speed and
gained considerable ground only to lose
when near the goal, Kendrick, Mitch
ell and Irons fought hard for the game.
Irons, former Montpelier seminary
athlete, well known for his sprinting
ability, was carrying the ball at va
rious times but his speed was always
cut off by tackle from some one Of
| his opponents To add to the interest
of the university lineup were two Barre
PLAYERS, Mari and Gruickshank, both
linemen.
Mcmahon, the husky center for God
dard, played wonderful game both in
| defensive and offensive Time and time
again he furnished for the Goddard
runner excellent interference and made
some eommendable tackles, He and
Sullivan were the two shining stars Of
the game The score:
Goddard. U. V. M. Freshmen.
