FOOTBALL The 15135 edition of Natick High's foot- ball team encountered considerable hard luck. Three overwhelming defeats, the dire:-t results of important injuries or broken moral, make an otherwise excellent record appear poor. The season began with a pair of wins. Then an unfortunate re- sult of the Wellesley game made way for a crushing defeat by Hudson. They came back to take a husky Milford team how- ever only to bow to Needhanrs revenge for last year. Thx- gganie with Norwood was marked by more than the usual hard-fougzlit contest. Aftrr scoring in t.l.f' first half the lied and PAGE I'IIIlHTl'Il'IN Blue finally allowed the superior weight of their opponents to tie the score. After a disappointing Dedham game came the most colorful battle with Framingham in years. A safety by the Blue and White initiated the scoring. But a beautiful pass gave Natick tlze edge again at 7-2. In the third period a perfectly executed drop-kick for a field goal by Fisher was nullified for offside. This heart-breaking play turned a sure victory back. In the final period Framingham scored again to defeat time Red and Blue. In the line the offensive play of our agressive leader Salvi Arena, the defensive work of our star center Martin Hall and in the baclcfield a doughty group of four horsemen all combined to make a fine teain.
