The midget halfback ap- peared to have excellent opportun- ] ity to make a touchdown but he was 1 tackled by Malone who halted his | sprint to the goal line. It was that play that brought the solitary ray of hope to the Bridgeport fans through out the game.
 | New Haven's touchdown came in the ! fourth period, Peterson, the left back of the visitors executing the trick | shortly after }, the start. With the 1 ball on the Bridgeport 1s-yards line, | Klapproth carried the ball through | center for a gain of two yards. Eight | more yards were gained by Peter son in two line manoeuvers and l Klappworth made it first down. Af- | ter a gain of an additional yard by | McCollum. Peterson grabbed the ball for a touchdown, afterward kicking the goal.
 The defense of the Maroons appear | ed to be the weakest of the season, l the New Haveners at no stage of the l game experiencing any great difficult ty in penetrating the lines of the Kearneyites
 King Brady, star punter of the | Maroons, failed in attempt for field goal from the 4s-yards line, and Peterson also failed in an effort from he 35 yards line.
