Blissfi-eld came to Addison on November l6th. They fought hard to win from our team but could do no mor-e than tie us. The game was one of great excitement and was considered by many the best game played on our home field during the season. The score was six to six. Blissfield's team was fast and well balanced. Their player of most notice was Sheldon, who administered many a successful end run dur- ing the game. The plunging of Scott of Addison High was the offensive feature, while Van Camp and Thompson in the line and Scott and Brown in the back-fi-eld were the features of defense. On November 23rd, Addison went to Morenci where they were badly beaten. Morenci's team was one of experience and outweighed our team by far. Each and every first team player on their squad was perfected to the height of High School training. A Our team fought hard against the great odds and put over a field goal in the third quarter. Due to the loss and disablement of players Addison was probably defeated to a greater extent than if the players had not been injured. Addis-on High won her last game of the season from Jonesville on November 29th, at vlonesville. The score was twenty-seven to seven. Jonesville made very little gain on the field, but fought with a steady determination. , Line plunges and forward passes were the outstanding offensive plays of our team, while the defensive plays seemed to concern all.

FOOTBALL GAMES PZASQ HE ADDISON High School football season ope-ned on September Sth, 1923. A call for men to participate during the season was responded to by twenty-four fellows. The ma- jority of those who answered the call were either light or inexperienced except a few members of the preceding year's team. After three weeks practice, under the direction of Coach M. C. Hilton, a team was chosen for the first game of the season. Th-e majority of those chosen for the first game played through- out the season and showed the good qualities of sportsmen. The first game of the season was plaayed at home on September 27th, Hanover winning from Addison by the score of thirteen to seven. Addison High met defeat at Manchester on October Sth, by the score of thirteen to six. Our t-eam fumbled the ball all through the game which, of course, gave 'Manchester the advantage. Our te.am was again defeated at Clinton on October 12th, by a score of forty-five to six. Clinton High had a very strong team. Their best player was Sproul, around whom they formed their olfense. Scott was the stellar perform- er for Addison and, on the first kickoff, carried the ball sixty yards. Our team fought 'hard against the heavy and strong Clinton eleven and in the third quarter, holding them on even terms, pushed over their only counter of the game. . Tecumseh High came to Addison on October 19th, and won a hard-fought game. The outstanding factors of Tecumseh's playing were full-back plunges .and the play of the ends on defens-e, while the defensive work of Scott at full and the plays of Mathias and DeFay were the features of Addison's game. Our next defeat was administered by the strong Hudson eleven at Hudson on October 26th, by a score of thirty-nine to nothing. The Hudson squad was considerably experienced and outweighed our team. Their outstanding feature was the end-running of Haight, also the excellent interference and def-ensive play o'f the whole team. On November Znd, Manchester came to Addison with victory in their very hearts, but left defeated by a score of thirteen to six. The line plunges and runs of Scott were the outst.anding factors of the game, while the rest of the team showed many fine points of de- velopment. ' Th-e following Friday, the Addison High gridders traveled to Han- over from which they returned the victors of a one sided game, the score being sixty to nothing. Hanover lacked material but put up a spirited defense. Their best player was Shook who showed .ability on end runs. 0,0 1 'Lo- qvi Zee. 'I' P 'V E LZ? H23 'T Sf' QQ?
