Cambridge 0—Franklin 0 2500 fans saw the Cambridge Trojans stop the Franklin Flyers 0-0. The favored Franklini- tes proved their capabilities with the T-forma- tion. They had the kind of a backfield that make it click, but Franklin advances were spelled by a Trojan line that would put many college clubs to shame in the determination department. It was one of those situations where not one. but all ol the players were standouts. Cambridge 20—Elwood 0 The Trojans came home from Elwood with another victory under their belts, they downed Elwood 20-0.
