18 THE MAGNET On Saturday, October 12, the L. H. S. football team met and defeated their old rivals, the Clinton High team, 8 to 0, on our own grounds. Leominster opened up the game in a businesslike way, and scored a touch- down in less than four minutes’ play. Wass kicked the goal, making the score 6 to 0 in Leominster’s favor, not long after Wass punted the ball over the goal line, where Lane forced Cheeney to make a safety, thus adding two points to Leominster’s score. After this Clinton played a much stronger game and kept the ball in Leominster’s territory through the second half. The game was marred by a little unnecessary roughness, and Referee Bent- ley penalized both sides frequently. Lane and T. Joslin were the shining stars for Leominster, and they were closely followed by the remainder of the local boys. Our football team Money, money, Is of the best Is their cry, That e’er was known For fifty cents North, East, or West. Your tickets buy.
