failed on the first assault, but Riope
drove through the middle Of the line

the Worcester spirits were revived
completely.
But they were not destined to remain
at concert pitch for long. Still having

to win the game. That the eleven was
still fresh and still had its punch was
demonstrated even after the Boston
