DEVONSHIRE The Hebron Cross Country team won comparatively few of its races, but its individual luminaries, Disnard and Dutton, shone brilliantly. In three races these two stars tied for nrst place: Disnard also iinished first in every other race save one, and Dutton, too, ran well in the other meets. The team, however, lacked the balance so essential to team victory in cross country. Nevertheless Coach Messer may well be proud of his boys. The scores of the various meets of the season were as follows: Hebron 19-Bridgton 36 Lincoln 25s--Hebron 32 Gorham 25gHebron 32 Hartland 38-Hebron 36-Colby Frosh 50 Hebron took a fifth in the University of Maine Cross Country Race Bridgton-Hebron+Bates New England meet at Andover-Disnard smashed record Hebron '25-Bridgton 30 l27I f

X J :Q - H r X THE SEASON A hard charging line followed by a fast, smooth, ballfhandling backneld brought about a most successful football season for 1941 by again winning the Prep School Championship of Maine. The Big Green met with defeat only once, when they traveled to Exeter for a mud battle in which the passing and running attacks of Hebron were stalled by the rain. Coach Marlette and assistant coaches Scott and Osthues were in no small manner responsible for the fine performances of the team. Hebron 0-Tilton 0 This opening game was the only deadlock of the season, with both teams very evenly matched. In the third quarter Grant of Hebron caught a pass in the end zone, but the play was ruled out for an offside penalty. Again Grant caught what seemed was a touchdown pass, but was brought down on the Tilton one foot line. Here a strong Tilton line held for four downs and stopped the threat. Hebron 14-Maine Freshmen 6 Hebron got off to an early start at Orono when DeLany broke loose for an eighty yard run in the third play of the game. Also in the first period, Rotelli of Hebron intercepted a pass and went sixty yards for the second touchdown. DeLany place' kicked both points after the touchdowns. Maine scored in the second period, but from then on the Hebron line kept things well in hand. Hebron 18--Maine Central Institute 0 After a closely fought first period the Big Green began to roll. DeLany found a hole and travelled thirty yards for the nrst touchdown. In the final quarter a pass from Quinn to Grant was good for six points, and a ten yard drive by Quinn com' pleted the scoring for the day. The Hebron line stalled the M. C. I. offensive play throughout the afternoon. Hebron 2-Bridgton 0 Although the rivalry was extremely strong for this game, the playing was marred by poor ballfhandling on the part of both teams. ln the third quarter Bridgton was forced to kick from their endfzone, and Grant broke through and blocked the punt. The ball rolled out of the endfzone for an automatic safety to give Hebron the narrow margin they needed for the victory. Hebron 14-Colby Freshmen 7 In the game at Waterx'ille Colby scored first when Driscoll cut loose on a thirty' yard run. Hebron tied it up when Grant snatched a pass in the endfzone. Again Grant saved the day for Hebron when, in the closing moments of the game, he galloped forty yards after receiving a pass from Quinn. Exeter 24-Hebron 6 Hebron scored first on a pass from Dedo to Grant, but was unable to go further as a result of the driving rainstorm. In the second half the ruggedness of the big Exeter team began to take its toll. Delany broke his ankle and was out for the season, and Captain Lariviere was forced out with a severe Charley horse . Pendleton scored twice in the last half for Exeter. ' Hebron 13-Kent's Hill O Hebron travelled to Kent's Hill to play the most important and last game of the season. In the first half neither team scored with both sides playing hard ball. In the last half the Big Green turned on the power. Anderson went around the right end for the first touchdown. Again Hebron started to march with Dedo crashing over center to score. A pass from Dedo to Merloni was good for the extra point. l26l
