High School Notes.

northerns from Stoughton were hand
ed a disastrous defeat by the even
weighted but much classier Edgerton
team.
This was day that Edgerton had
waited for, for five years. Not since
the days when the famous state cham
pions Led by Rollie Williams swept
the state, had we scored a touchdown
on Stoughton. This year, however, we
evened up, making one touchdown for
each year they have "blanked" us.
Outside of Jim Curran's two drop
kicks in 1917, Edgrton has repeated
ly been walked over by her chief
rivals.
The first quarter started by Edger-
ton punting to Stoughton; they adj
vanced the ball as far as they could
but Edgerton soon had the ball. Edg-
erton advanced steadily but failed to
make their last down and punted.
Stoughton returned the punt but I'M
fortunately for them it went straight
up in the air, carrying the Stoughton
outfit with it. The ball was recovered
by Robert Bardeen on Stoughton's
goal line and a minute later Claude
Whitford had carried the ball over.
Bardeen kicked goal!
Edgerton again kicked off to
Stoughton but the Stoughton team
was unable to gain again, before
Edgerton came into possession of the
ball. The Edgerton men seemed to
gain at will, and. Johnson made the
second touchdown, Bardeen again
kicked goal. This ended the scoring
that quarter.
The greatest thrill in this quarter
was when Virgil Larson received a
punt and galloped through the whole
opposing team. Bardeen again made
a successful goal kick. The ball re-
NAMED in Edgerton's hands most of
the time however, and Laurice Spike
made the fourth touchdown of the
game. Bardeen again making a
successful goal. Edgerton started the
second with $50 lead and receiving
the ball soon made another touch
down which was put over by Guinness
By this time everything appeared to
be in our favor with a score of $50.
The playing went on without gain on
either side for about one half hour.
The whole game in fact was most
exciting affair. Every one exhibited
fine spirit and was right on tap to
cheer the boys on to victory. Edger-
toms spirit still comes up to the stan
dard as was shown by the attitude
which the people in the community
took toward our team Saturday.
The game ended with a final score
of $50.
