injury with an insurance tally in the last quarter. Pomfret showed signs of life as in the first quarter, but St. Ceorges was out to make up for last year's loss, and simply would not be denied. The final score read i9-7. The game at Croton showed that the Red and Black still was plagued by the old bugaboo of poor pass defense. At no time during the entire afternoon did Pomfret make a real bid for paydirt, and only some of the most savage tackling in a long time by Captain Warner discouraged the Groton backs from enlarging the 6-O score. November l-4 found the Red and Black playing Westminster in the tightest game of the year. Pomfret out fought the surpris- ed lvlinsters but the game ended at I2-7 giving the home team its third straight win against the visitors. The season ended on a victorious note with the 7-O defeat of Salisbury, Although a Z and 4 record is not outstanding, the spirit of the team was high throughout the whole season. 7 17 Q5 f ....,..
