M I DDLETOWN Middletown High Proves to be just another victim for Orange and Black Gridders. Hanover proved there was a first time for everything when they set back the Middle- town High. This was the first time this feat was ever accomplished. This was the first real test for the Hawk gridders, and they proved themselves capable of defeating even the best of them. Score 13a7. CARLISLE Hanover lads beat Carlisle on closest game of season so far. The Hawk gridders ascertained by test for the public's interests that they were able to win games away as well as on their own soil. This game resulted to be one of the most exciting of the season. Neither team seemed to be able to make much head- way until the second period when the teams scored. Carlisle scored first when Lightner threw a pass to Horn who crossed the goal line. A few minutes later Seibert and Becker took the ball up the field and Seibert bucked center for a touchdown. Becker kicked the extra point to perfection. Although both teams fought hard they could score no more. Total score. 7-6. MECHANICSBURG Mechanicsburg down Hanover Gridders.

Welker scored on an off tackle play. Score 6-0. Hanover tied the score when Becker passed a long one to Warner who caught it, scoring 7a6. Hanover made the extra point good.

COLUMBIA Hanover Gridders defeat Columbia with Little Difficulty. The Hill team proved again to the Columbia squad that they were not quite good enough to beat them. Seibert did all the scoring for the Nighthawks. In the initial period Seibert ran 6 yards for a touchdown. Again in the second quarter, Seibert crossed the opponent's goal. Final score 12-0. HERSHEY The Orange and Black Team triumphs Over Hershey in Rain-Soaked Came. The Hawks got off to a good start when Cap Ernst slashed through center to score in the opening minutes of the game.

An attempt to make the extra point was muffed. Final score 7-6. CHAMBERSBURG Chambersburg Downs Hanover in Mud. The Night- hawks lost chances of the conference title when they were humbled by the Trojansl Many people were disappointed in the fact that the decision as to the best team winning could not be made because of the ground conditions. Chambersburg scored in the first quarter. Shatzer blocked Becker's kick. Burkholder crossed the line for the first score. Shuman kicked the extra point, which made a score of 7-0. In the beginning of the second period Ernst was brought down behind his own goal when he chased after a bad pass from center. Chambersburg scored again when Boles grabbed a blocked kick and ran 24 yards for a touchdown. Ransom kicked the extra point. Blocked kicks, fumbles, and wet grounds brought the Hanover lads down to defeat. Final score I5-0. WAYNESBORO Ealy Men Return To Excellent Form of Year. Many were surprised when Hanover journeyed to Waynesboro and held the Tornadoes to a scoreless tie. This was the first time in 6 years that Waynesboro didn't beat the Hawks. Excellent kicking by Levick, Waynesboro's halfback, helped them to protect their goal immensely. Ernst and Becker also did some fine kicking but did not quite reach the par of Levick. Score 0-0. SHIPPENSBURG Hanover Downs Shippensburg Despite Rain and Muddy Grounds. Although a few changes were made in the Hawks backfield, it seemed very profitable. Fuhrman played at fullback position, while Seibert played at left halfback. The other regulars of the backfield remained in their same positions. Fuhrman scored in the second period and rushed the ball for the extra point. In the same quarter, Foose, quar- terback for the opponents, ran 72 yards for a touchdown. Hanover added two more points when Martin, right halfback fell on the ball behind his own goal. Fuhrman again scored another touchdown making the final score I5-6. G ETTYSB U RG Nighthawks Nose Out G-Burg by 7-6 score. Hanover showed beautiful strategy over their ancient rivals in nos- ing them out with a one point margin. One of the most beautiful passes of the season resulted in winning the game for Hanover. Those responsible were Cap Ernst, who did the passing, and Don Hausenfluck on the receiving end to go over for the touchdown. But still this would not have won the game if it were not for Bud Becker's trained toe, which enabled him to kick the extra point. FORTY -EIGHT
