It was the olcl, olcl story ol in goorl lnaclrlielcl without a line. Most of the Blue :intl Wliite laaelcs who led New Hainpshire to scvcn viclorics in 1937 were present in the lineup, hut they were quite powerless to overcome the hancli- cap ol' an incxpcricncccl anal poorly-coorclinating for- warcl wall.

After the tirst few minutes of play, the out- come of the game was never in question, except for a lone toucholown in the thircl period, the Bates eleven failed to threaten seriously, and the hall was lcept in their territory almost throughout the contest. A long pass from Horne to Frecl Vxfinterlaottom, in the seconcl periocl, accounted for the First New Hamp- shire touchdown, while Horne luggecl the hall over for the seconcl score, in the thircl period, after sopho- more Clarence Parlrer hacl almost single hancleclly car- riecl it clown from micllielcl. The linal tally came a few minutes later when Slug Knox, sophomore quarterlaaclc, interceptecl a Bates pass on the enemy 40 yarcl line and sped clown the sirlelines into Touch- clown T own.
