Putnam highs eridiron warriors furnished additional cause for Armi- stice Day celebration last Monday on the high school field in registering a 27-0 shut-out over the highly touted Cast Douglas eleven, rated as an out standing contender for scholastic honofs in Mass. This affair marked the eighth straight victory on the un- blemished '2s record. and the sixth shout-out of the season.
 The first quarter found the ball exchanging hands in bunting duel with neither goal in danger. Things began to happen, however. directly after the opening of the second pc riod. With the heavy plunging Put nam backs digging wide gaps in the visitors frontier. 1t was not long be- fore Sham found his choice spot off left tackle to effect touchdown on a nine yard drive. The attempted place ment went a trifie wide. Three sen sational runs by Charlie Bove, topped by 35 yard gain on cris-cross, by Franklin. placed the ball on the Bay State ten yard line late in the pe- riod Cody replaced Bove at this time and circled left end on the next play for the touchdown. Sham kicked the point from placement before the whistle ending the half with the score l3-0 for Putnam.
 Coach Moves allowed several of his regulars to rest at the opening of the second half, substituting several saw age youngsters playing the game like NIttL .l calling the signals. the Elliot, HoIeer- son. Weiss backfield ran the ball deep into enemy territory, to be carried over by the quarterback on the ever dependable cris-cross. A lateral pass to King on the same play scored the extra point. The regulars rushfsl in few minutes before the end to effect the fourth touchdown on an end run by Cody Sham completed his third point from placement immedia- tely after.

Moves appeared far from pleased as his charged fumbled and slipped through one of the loosest tits in many years. With Cody on the sidelines be- cause of an injured leg muscle, the Putnam defense seemed at a loss and fell easy prey to the overhead game forwarded by the visitors.
 The first half found Plaintield out playing the locals In almost every de- partment but unable to reach . satis- factory scoring position. Putnam showed improvement in the second half tightening up on the defense and talk ing the ball from the visitors at mid field. DeBardinis effected the lone score of the game near the end of the third quarter after a march of fifty yards from the center of the field, and sham added the point from place ment,

Sergeant Ken neth Sharpe acted as song leader and did his best to stir the gathering into nong. but the response was not what it should have been,
 Lieutenant Moss then said that m rommemorating an event that took sDiace ten years ago it was fitting that fhere be a note of solemnity. He called on Father U. o. BelIerose to offer prayer and 10 say q few words.

 After closing his prayer Father BeIlerose said that Chaplain Richard Mclaughlin. the speaker of the day, had been delayed and that he had been asked to say q few words. "So l am uinch hitter this morning" he said.
 He alluded to the veterans of the Civil War. and the Spanish War, seat cd next to him, the Civil War veterans as being from eighty to ninety years old. but enjoying good health. May God give them more," he said.
 He alluded to the tenth anniversary of the signing of the Armistice, say ing there had been ten years Of peace. That there is lasting peace among all nations due to the sacrifices of those young men who went out at their coun- fry's call.

FOOTBALL
Best BeIding Blues Could Get Was Tie
 When Break Favored Opponents

A thrilling thirty-five yard forward pass, McCabe to Mahaney. Vernon Club scoring machine. robbed the Bedding Blues of a well earned vic- tory on Adams field last Sunday af- ternoon. as the locals played into the third tie of the season. Up to the eventful heave, the Blues were en- toying six point advantage in the savagely contested game, secured on a touchdown by Farquhar following interception of a Vernon pass, early in the third quarter.
 As advertised, the visitors showed to be a fast, well organized team of seasoned Rridsters forcing the play from the first kick off.
 Neither backfcld seemed able to gain any great yardage on line plays in the first half choosing to punt out of danger on the third down. MccCabe bettered Applin on the exchange fore ing the greater part of the half on Putnam territory.
 A fine example of the Blues de fense was offered at the opening of the last period when the Bay State players failed 10 score after making a first down on Putnam's two yard line. A series of forward passes Cody to Farquhar, from a punt form ation brought the crowd to its feet and incidentally to blows towards the finish es both teams fought savagely to score.
 Farquhar was easily the headliner for the afternoon in company with the Phaneuf, Slye combination.

Chaplain Mclaughlin


 Chaplain Mclaughlin
 Chaplain Mclaughlin said that dur ing Armistice Day, over in France. they are decorating the tomb of the Unknown Soldier; in Whitehall, Lon don, King George and princes are lay ing wreaths on the tomb of the un- known Soldier; and down in Washing ton they are also decorating the burial place of the Unknown Soldier. All over the state gatherings are being held to show that the people do not forget.
 There are mothers who have no graves to decorate. They are the Gold Star mothers. We pause to drop q tear or wreath for these boys who did not come back. They gave up all, that the stars and stripes shall repre- sent freedom and peace. We have gone on enjoying our homes and our pros pcrity, but these boys can not enjoy them" he said.
 lie alluded to this conntry's out. standing prosperity and the citizens enjoyment of their loves, their dreams and aspirations. saying that We ought to pledge that every Armistiee Day VI will leave our duties, our homes, and honor those boys who did not come back. Armistice Day is not only [ day of memory; it is a day of peace Peace in the homes.
 "Iove builds homes Hatred never bailds homes. Hatred destroys homes On this day we have no hatred for tn, Germans; for the Austrians; all il dead, has passed away. We have low, 4E-- F..s every creed. Peace is founded on q Epirit of love"
 The speaker alluded Co the recent political campaign, saying now that it Is all past all issues. all differences, arc forgotten, and behind that capital down in Washington there Is nothing but love of a united country. Our cit izens bury all bitterness. for behind is all is the stars and stripes and love for our country.
 He said that while in France he never met boy who said he hated a German. There was no hatred any where. They fought to end the war
 within twenty-four hours the president has said we need larger navy. He is the one who knows. He Is in a position to know. It is our duty to support our army and our navy but only with the idea of protecting our country. The stars and stripe' stand for humanity and democracy al around the world
 "So today we should make a pledg, to those boys under ground-"Yot fought war to end war. and vel carry out that pledge"
 The exercises were concluded witt the singing of America"
