Every game has been well fought and exciting. This year’s team is as follows: Quincy High opened its football season by losing to Newton, Sept. 18, at Newton by a score of 3-0. It was one of the best and hardest fought games our team hais ever played with Newton. The wonderful stonewall defense of Coach Mitchell’s “Granite City” eleven held the “Garden City” eleven from scoring at least three times when in the danger zone. Our team at times displayed good drives, and it made substantial gains, but could not get within scoring distance. The only score was made in the last period when Spain of Newton dropped back and kicked the ball between the up- rights, scoring for Newton the three points by which they beat us. Among those who watched the game were Captain Clement Coady of the Harvard varsity eleven, and Charles Line- ham, the Harvard scout. Quincy High players appeared in their new jerseys, which are blue with white numbers, and their stockings, which are also blue with white stripes. Everyone who attended the game saw a good brand of football and went away satisfied. Boston English 10—Quincy 7 No. Player 1. Dud Foy, Capt. 2. Jack Sharkey 3. Eaton 4. Bert MacLeod 5. Freeman 6.
