Fendlcton. Field judge: A. V. Bratt. Time: 4 12-minute periods. But B. U. forgot the ethics of college football that afternoon and held New Hampshire to a scoreless tie, before the 10.000 students who came to pay homage. Solly Thurman and Hugo Nelson started the game as halfbacks, Al Spitzer at Carnie's end berth and Buckwalter in place of French. Thurman and Nelson ripped the New Hampshire line to shreds, while Spitzer emulated Carnie as a wing. Time and again Thurman would reel off gain after gain, slanting off tackle or circling the ends, with Vvalke and Nelson as his interferers. Spitzer's greatest contri- bution to the cause was given late in the second half when he single handedly stopped TVinkler, New Hampshire halfback, from scoring. Alden Bass, freshman, had just replaced Nelson who was forced out with a twisted back. He was cold and on his first play lost hold of the ball. Winkler was Johnny-on-the-spot and scooped up the pigskin. He set sail for the B. U. goal with nothing in front of him. Spitzer was quick to realize what had happened and followed in pursuit. Chalk mark after chalk mark were passed over by the two speeding figures with the lanky Spitzer gaining on every stride. There were only a few more yards to go when Spitzer left his feet and, appearing like a 75 millimeter-shell, twisted through the air to drop the Wildcat in his tracks. The line did the rest and the New Hampshire scare was over. B. U. had its best chance of the afternoon a few minutes later. Thurman carried from his own goal line to the New Hampshire four-yard line. Four yards to go and second down coming, was the referee's cry. Marston called for a centre buck by VValke, and Crab made a little more than a yard. Again Walke's signal was called and again he crashed the line. It looked as though he went over but the referee decided otherwise. Inches separated B. U. from victory. A pin could be heard dropped on the green gridiron as the teams lined up for the last play. Again ivalke was called upon and the stands were making ready to pay honor to the Salem youth as the first man to score on the new field. With the starting signal ready to be ripped off the line dug its feet into the ground. The signal came and from end to end the Terrier front wall gave a gigantic heave. Dincolo and Dorfman opened a hole big enough for a team of horses. But nothing came through. A mixup had taken place in the backfield and B. U. saved the day for New Hampshire. A few minutes later and the game was ready for the might have been boys . XY . V A J M, .mx ,KC gg I , .2 229 . . . , . 1. ' 41- -.1 1- ..-, . .,, 1 . . ,.,.,,. . ,.

The small band of Terriers who wore the Scarlet and VVhite on that memor- able afternoon of September 28, put up one of the hardest games that the cadets were called upon to meet during their entire season. The team played a n1ucl1 better brand of football. while being defeated by 35 points, than it did the year before when it held the mighty Army to a 13-0 score. There were obstacles to overcome which would have caused many other grid- iron machines to give up on the spot. First of all there was the large Army squad, splendidly conditioned by all-year-round training, secondly, the trip away from Boston, and thirdly. the officiating. Not that the officials favored Army, but one of them proved altogether too strict for the opening game of the season. The game went the regulation 60 minutes, something out of the ordinary for an opening contest. For the first 50 minutes of play all that Army could do was to score one touchdown, the gift of the referee who penalized B. U. 45 yards in three consecutive plays. Hootstein fumbled on the fourth and Army recovered, to score a play later. VVith less than 10 minutes of the game remaining, Coach Biff Jones sent in a fresh team to battle the tiring Terriers. His scrubs accomplished what his regulars failed to do. Forward passes flew high and wide and four touchdowns, in almost as many minutes, was the tale the substitute cadets brought back to their coach. B. U. lost more than the game that sunny Saturday afternoon. Two most promising halfbacks, Phil Hootstein and Cyn Perkins, freshmen, were forced out of the game with leg injuries. They were unable to appear in uniform again for over a month. Individually many of the B. U. regulars outplayed their cadet opponents. This was true, especially, in the middle of the line, where the centre trio of Capt. Arthur Dorfman, centre, and Bill French and Jimmie Dincolo, guards, held forth. They took up the reins where they left off at the end of the 1926 season when they were together last. Dincolo showed no ill effects of his lay-off and battered Capt. Sprague into submission. Twice during the afternoon, the roly poly Jimmie hit the Army captain and All-America star so hard that the big West Pointer took the count. Carnie and Spitzer, ends, Walke, fullback. Perkins, Hootstein and Nelson half- backs, and O'Brien and Marston, quarterbacks, also were brilliant. V l.h.b., Perkins Cliass, Ne-lsonj Cagle fHutcl1insunj,l.h.b.

Syracuse- Timfi won the game by a Q5-0 score. t Probably one of the reasons that the team played so well was that the players V were fighting for Reggie Brown who was at his home with a broken ankle, suffered 5 during the mid-week scrimmage. They entered the game with the thought of their E blelovedlc-3ac'tE1lyi?g in hiis beg Iirlgygfif for victory. With this thought paramount in Q t eir min s t e p ayers oug t i e arines. T One of the immortals of the day was a small light haired freshman who was i returning to the land of his prep school days. He was Alden Bass, who formerly played for hlontpelier Seminary, located only a few miles from Burlington. He was I the cynosure of all Vermont eyes. It was well that Bass was known in the Vermont citadel. It saved the spectators the trouble of asking who the blond speed demon was. He turned into a paragon that it afternoon and gave one of the greatest demonstrations of halfback play that the jf, Vermont team was forced to cope with for many a moon. That the Terriers outrushed their opponents is shown by the fact that B. U. made 15 first downs to Vermontrs four. Bass and Thurman were breaking away for if short gains all during the game. Most of their runs were made through the right side r of the Catamount line, B. U.'s left flank opening up many holes there during the g afternoon. VValke was right there when it came to bucking the line for needed yard- . age. O'Brien at quarterback played his usual heady game. He was on the receiving i end of two forward passes. Unlike the Vermont safety man, Obie did not signal for fair catches when receiving punts. As many as Hve or six times he took the punts and tried to run them back. But the majority of time there were five green-jerseyed men waiting for him with open arms. The Terrier ends were down under every punt. Many times either Carnie and Tutten or Jerome and Spitzer sped down under Walke's high kicks to down the ball only a few yards from the Vermont goal line. The B. U. line displayed its power both on the offense and defense. Captain Dorfman at center was the usual bulwark on the defense and intercepted a forward pass toward the end of the game. Dincolo and French, the guards, were in there every moment and opened up many a hole for the backs during the afternoon. Swenson at right tackle and Buckwalter at left tackle distinguished themselves by spoiling many Vermont plays during the game. 230 if f f f 'fl f V' 'si f 4i mW.,m1ELH45.', Z.L
