Ball team. They defeated Ocean City
six to nothing and the girls won twen-
ty to nothing. The game was played
in Pocomoke High School field and
they could not have picked a better
day. The weather was good and the
field was in splendid condition. The
boys really showed team work and
cooperation. They kept the ball near
the Ocean City goal throughout the
entire game. Norman Allen was again
the outstanding player of the day.
He made two out of three goals made.
Both Of these he made almost entirely
single handed. Each time he receiv-
ed the ball far from the goal and took
it down the field unaided against the
resistance of the entire Ocean City
team and scored. Jesse Matthews,
Pocomoke's star center forward made
a beautiful play and scored the last
goal. Playing regular twenty five

three fifty and lasted until five ten.

The girls played marvellous game
The score twenty to nothing in POGO
moke's favor, is a record for the girls.
Although this seems rather large
score, the local girls had to play hard
for every goal. 1t was fast game
from start to finish. The Ocean City
girls, like the boys, must have also
struck an unlucky day. But although
they lost, they really gave the POGO
moke girls some opposition. The ball
was constantly in the air, shifting
from one team to another. The back
field really showed some hard playing.
With this splendid cooperation and
team work, the future really looks
bright for the girls.
