Opening Game, $40

Especial to The Kennebec Journai)
Hallowell. Sept. 20.-Hallowell
High opened its football season on
the new Vaughan field here today
by defeating the Winthrop High
gridders, $40, the game being one
of the features of the carnival, a
large crowd being on hand to witness
it. The Winthrop team was some
wha- better than a year ago and
played a much better game.
Hallowell kept the ball in Win
throp's territory most of the game,
while Winthrop was unable to get
much nearer than the o0-yard line
to Hallowell's goal.
Winthrop's first down was on their
own 3o-yard line. They lost the ball
on fumbles. Halloween soon scored
Capt. Lerette carrying the ball over.
Greeley failed to kick the goal. In
the next quarter Lerette again got n
touchdown after making 25-yard
gain.
Hallowell carried the ball to Win
throp's 3O-yard line at the kickoff
of the second half; a series OF gains
through the line and a pretty for
ward pass from Lerctte to Ballard
brought another touchdown. In the
last quarter another forward pass
gained - yards more and Greeley
carried the ball over. Before the
quarter ended the Hallowcll warriors
again carried the ball over and with
another point for a goal gave them
a $40 victory.
Several substitutes were given n
chance to play. but this created no
weakness in the team, as the men
did their best TO equal their pre-
deceSSor
With several veterans. a good sup
