The general inexperience of our squad was evident and the majority of last year's crack line unfortunately was not offset by nced senior backtield. Another factor was that our quarterback, npson, had not had any experience at that position since his fresh- ,C W A L D E N Liberty Walden 12 6 Liberty's second game was at home against Walden, and the straightening-out began to pay off. The Liberty defense had improved one hundred per cent and that, along with a consistent ground-gaining offense, combined to upset the applecart of the favored Walden team.

HIGHLIGHTS G O S H E N Liberty Goshen 6 0 With the cancellation of a regularly scheduled game came an in- vitation for Liberty to play Goshen at Goshen. A strong football town, Go- shen had won eighteen out of nineteen games during the last three years and was eager to defeat the larger town of Liberty. Liberty Highland 25 6 Liberty had only to win this home game with Highland to clinch the Mid-Hudson Valley trophy, and our whole team was very aware of this fact. John Lawrence, playing top-notch football, scored twice in the first half aided by the excellent blocking of Douglas Gorton, Paul McDermott and the backiielu. A R L I N G T O N Liberty Arlington 12 ' 25 Never in our football history have we defeated Arlington. This year it was believed that history would be made to the contrary.

They tallied three of their touchdowns on passes, thus continu- ing their winning streak against the Liberty Indians. . H A N C O C K Liberty Hancock 6 7 The Indians were planning on ending with a very successful sea.- son by beating Hancock, and in review of last year's 25-6 drubbing, the pros- pects looked good. Liberty was far too confident, however, as they found them- selves pitted against an inspired and speedy Hancock eleven, who were deter- mined to go home victorious. A F za
