- -W .19-2.4. NYSSA Wg Football Games NEW YORK AGGIES VS. MITCHEL FIELD The Aggies played the first game of the season with the Mitchel Field Aviators, finishing on the short end of a 7-O score. A hard struggle was put up by the green-jerseyed lads but due to just this greenness the game was Zost. The team as a Whole displayed a fine brand of fighting football, with Captain Jack Pollet, the only veteran on the team, as the backbone of the Aggie defense. Were, O'Shaughnessey and McNeil also deserve mention for their aggresive and untiring efforts to make the game a win. Our Fresh- man backfield played a fine game and in the future we hope to see that extra punch that scores. . ' NEW YORK AGGIES VS. WEBB INSTITUTE The second game of the season was looked forward to with a great deal of interest, for the student body could not but admire the pluck and spirit that the team had put forth against the Aviators. made up as it was of practically all Freshmen. Although the game was lost. the Aggies did not disappoint their followers, putting up a battle that was only overcome by the greater experience of the opponents. It was also demonstrated that the Aggies were capable of working the aireal game. Through this a rally was staged in the second half, starting with a forward pass from Pollet to Borer, and then an end run by Borer bringing the ball to within l5 yards of the Webb goal. On the next play, Pollet came through with a crashing line plunge. Wfith but live yards to go the XYebb defense stiffened and the Aggies were unable to make the goal. Borer. O'Shaughnessy. XYere and McNeil played a line game with l'ollet once more the mainstay of the team. The game ended with the score 20-O. .- -- s .-S 'Ms ., .- -,... a+.--.+ia.....-..........l......t.:...-,:g:Lf 2g1LLg..:i.1.'::?, L-Tlilli. ..':'Z:fXf:.,..,lv.- - ...- - , Qlit. ji l77l ..s..,a..W......ag1.Qs3s,rf',.-3z.t.Qgaggceggisaggggiggggggi ..

IVIINEOLA AVIATORS In-a game replete with spectacular runs' and plays the Aggies lost to the Mitchel Field Aviators to the tune of 20-7. Borer taking advantage of a lose ball on the Aviators' 18-yard line scooped it up and carried the ball over the line .for ourllone touchdown. McNeil booted the pigskin over for the extra point. - , The full offensive power- of the Aggies was demonstrated time and again by our fast backs, and Pollet's plunges through the line for repeated gains. McNeil, Were, Borer, and O,Shaughnessy were good for repeated gains past the Soldiers' defense. The linemen also played a stellar game, breaking up the opponents plays repeatedly. Notwithstanding the Aggies fine game they were scored upon three times, the Aviators breaking through-by sheer weight, outweighing our men 15 pounds to the man.- NEW YORK AGGIES VS. COOPER UNION INSTITUTE In the last game of the season our rivals of former years, Cooper Union, were encountered in a hard fought game at Flatbush Oval, Brooklyn. Al- though defeated the Aggies made the game a closely contested one, loosing numerous chances to come within scoring distance by bad breaks and inop- portune fumbling. The one outstanding play of theday was a thrilling run by Van Pelt for 35 yards after receiving the ball on a forward pass from O'Shaughnessy. Although the ball was only ten yards from the Cooper Union goal the light Aggie backfield was unable to penetrate the stonewall defense of the Cooper line and the game ended with the Aggies on the short end of a 25-O score.
