in the state, the Maroon and White held them scoreless for three periods taking all that Cheshire could give until superior man power brought a collapse. Milford was seriously handicapped in this game due to the injuries of Haggerty and Sheahan, tackles. Late in the third period, Captain Boyle had to be relieved because of injury, thus denying Milford of its best line bulwark. Then in spite of our best efforts, the Cheshire squad put over four touchdowns and three conversions. Final score: Milford 0-Cheshire 27. WILBRAHAM Playing Wilbraham Academy of Wilbraham, Mass., in the final game of an unsuccessful season, Milford came through with amazing power and speed to defeat her strongly favored rival 7-O. Milford lost no time in scoring. On the fifth play of the game, Al Roller stood on the midfield stripe ,and passed to jimmy Curren who bolted across the goal line. Yocher's try for the extra point was blocked but Harry Shendell, scooped up the ball and crossed the line. Milford threatened several times but was unable to score again.
