Football Review ' OOTBALL practice for the year started September 20 with seven letter men fgll , numbered among a squad of twenty-eight boys. Co-captains Frees and 1: Kindermann, Ferris, Friedrich, and Hunter were the five letter men to be lg . fl' QS? listed with the first eleven again. The Varsity squad was made up of last eb- :A . t t - . 'f--- :w el year s substitutes and a few newcomers. Enthusiasm and willingness characterized this group. These two factors are the reasons for the great improvement of this year's comparatively green squad. The first game of the season was played against Ridgefield, after about three weeks practice. In this game Barnard found many rough edges it had to smooth out. The final score, which was 7f0 in Barnard's favor, was no indication of the fine play. Ferris and Beckmann showed up excellently on the offense. After a week's drill we met Englewood in the Park. A much weaker team was pitted against us, so Major decided not to run up a huge score, and the game ended 26-0. A week later the team journeyed to Brunswick and played a marvelous game. The teams were evenly matched and it was a fight from start to finish. Beckmann bore the brunt of the attack and was first to score. Then Kindermann received a

Later Ferris tallied on an intercepted pass, which decided the final outcome of the game, which was 18-6. Woodmere was next on the schedule and this was another game of evenly matched teams. Although Woodmere led 6-O in the first half, a brilliant run by Kindermann enabled Beckmann to go over from the 10 yard line to even the score 6-6. The extra point was made by Hunter, and the final score was 7-6. The Woodmere game showed the beginning of a situation which was to be evident in the three games to follow- Barnard could not get going until the second half. The next game was with Fieldston, which was a second-half battle. Barnard showed no opposition in the first half. Fieldston soon scored. After a pep-talk by Major, the team came back and outplayed Fieldston every minute, but could not tally. The game ended 6-0. Adelphi was next and by scoring early in the game they were able to defeat a superior Barnard team by the score of 12-0. Perhaps the most interesting and exciting game of the season was the Edgewood game. They brought down a strong aggregation from Greenwich. In the first period Edgewood scored, and on the succeeding kick-off, Mallett raced 80 yards for a touch- down. This was possible by the fine blocking of the rest of the team. After that Edgewood scored quite consistently. In the third period Bolton snatched a flying fumble and ran sixty yards for our second score. In the last minutes of play, Beckmann added six more points, and the final score of the most brilliant game of the season was 27-19. This was Kindermann's best game of the year and a fitting climax to a splendid football career. The work of Billy Moore at center was exceptionally noticeable. As a result of Billy's good work he was placed on the all Scholastic Prep school team chosen by the World-Telegram. George Kindermann was also chosen on this team. Although Co- Captain Frees was inexperienced at playing end, he made it up with his fighting spirit. Friedrichs and Hunter, old veterans of the varsity, played sterling games at tackle. Bolton, inexperienced and very light, played well on the offense. Charley should be exceptionally good next year. Charlie Conway with john Faiella and John Brown held down the guard positions. They played football with a fighting spirit that could not be beaten. Although their work was not spectacular, it was very e-Hicient in opening up holes in the line. The success of the season should go to Major Ashton. Major has a technique in handling boys that makes them want to play football. He has developed many an inexperienced boy to become a good football player. The Brie wishes Major the best of luck next year.
