Chester vs. Granby Hillebrand Jones led Chester against Granby on Foreman Field in Norfolk in a very uneven match. Chester was outclassed by Granby and lost 45 to 0. Harry Southee, right guard, played a very fine game in spite of the heavy odds. Chester vs. Morrison Captain Warren Underwood led the Chester Maroons to victory against Morrison in one of the toughest games of the season. According to the statistics, the Maroons outplayed Morrison, yet the goal line was too heavily guarded to be crossed. Eighteen seconds before the end of the game, Luther Chandler scored a 32 foot dropkick to win the game by a score of 3 to 0. Chester vs. Suffolk After having scouted Chester during the Granby game, the Suffolk boys expected to have no trouble in stacking up an enormous score. They were very disappointed when a hard fighting Chester team, led by Captain Harry Southee, arrived with an entirely new formation and all new plays. Both teams put up a hard, clean fight to the end. Due to a continuous string of bad breaks. on part of the Maroons, Suffolk was victorious by a score of 12 to 0. Chester vs. Poquoson The newly organized team of Poquoson High School met the Chester Maroons on Greene Field. The Poquoson boys, because of the lack of playing experience, were literally walked over by the Maroons. Captain Ernest Gates led the Maroons to a 36 to 0 victory. Robert Tucker led the scoring with two touchdowns and Chandler, Stubbs, Goodloe, and Cogbill marked up one each. Chester vs. South Boston Tommy Snellings was elected Captain for the game with South Boston. Due to South Boston’s field being unfit to play on, the game was postponed and later cancelled. Therefore, the season ended with the Poquoson game. At the end of the season a vote was taken to elect the honorary captain of the year. This boy must have worked hard to keep a cooperative spirit among the players, and have put all he had in every play of the season. Above all he must have played clean, hard football. All this we found in Hillebrand Jones, honorary captain of the season. pee forty-five “The Retle ctor
