WEST NOTTINGHAM IL
TOWER HILL SCHOOL 6

After trailing 6 to 0 at the
end of the first quarter, the
West Nottingham grid team
unleashed a bewildering aerial
attack that swept them to the
front and finally gained them
IA to 6 victory over the strong
Tower Hfll eleven from Wilm-
ington, last Friday at the Co
lora field. In the opening
period the visitors smashed
their way down the field to
score but following this adj
vance, the Nottingham line
frightened and the Tower Fill
backs could make little head
way during the rest of the
game. a
A pass from Metzgar to Arm
strong, sent the Nottingham
back out into the open and he
carried the ball to the 2-yard
line. From here Teeter, bril-
liant Nottingham fullb a ok.
crashed through for the score.
This back also added the point
that gave his team the lead
when he took a lateral pass
from Wood for he point.
The only other Tower Fill
threat came in the third period
when Reward broke through to
block Odells punt and picked
up the rolling ball to carry it
to the Nottingham 10 yard line
W h ere Cameron overhauled
him and crashed him down.
For four plays the Nottingham
line held CALAMITY and the Wis
itors failed to gain. Teeter
then lifted a long punt to the
Tower 40 and the danger was
passed. In the final period
Bowles shot a long pass down
the field which Wood snatched
out of the hands of three Tow
er Hill backs, whirled, and
sprinted over the line for a
touchdown. Bowles dropkick-
ed the point.
Nottingham will meet Balti-
