The HOWLETT - 1929 efpfailga FOOTBALL GAMES MARSTON 13 ST. JOHN'S 0 The season opened on October 11, with St. John's Junior Varsity at Annap- olis, who outweighed Marston's by a large margin, but were inexperienced along the technical points of football, and con- sequently we had no trouble in conquering them. Five minutes after the opening whistle Al Plitt crashed their line for a touchdown, but failed in the extra point. The second and third quarters were a continual fight between the two teams, but the last quarter opened our offense with some brilliant passing from Captain Tom Bosley to Bill Struven, the latter taking the ball from an aerial to the ten-yard line, after which Tom put it over in two plays. The extra point was kicked by Plitt, thus ending the game soon after. MARSTON 6 MCDONOGH 6 McDonogh was encountered on October 19, which was expected to be the hardest game of the season, and certainly came up to our expectations. The first quarter was a hard battle of line bucking on the part of both teams until the op- ponents' fullback got loose around end and ran twenty yards for a touchdown. A few minor injuries were received during the first half, but that put no delay in the fighting Marston team. As the second half began Bosley broke loose on a trick play through center, and ran twenty-five yards for our first score. An attempted pass for the point after touchdown failed and the teams continued to battle up and down the field, neither scoring. . MARSTON so DoNALDsoN 0 On November 7.
