The ditlierenee was IO points. 'llhe game was lrarely underway when Savage lwiuieed around right end for a first down. llowerer, in the next play Sanford fumlmled and lliddeford reeovered. Such was the story all afternoon. Fumlnles and had passes kept our Redskins lmehind the eight hall, hut at the sante time Sant'ord's frontier was doing a great jolt stopping l1iddeford's powerful running attaek. 'l'he 'lligers were held for 43 yards on the ground. lfinally after lloth lines had fought almost to a standstill, lliddelord started to pass, attd what passing it wasl All three lliddeford tal! lies were set up and seored through the air. YYe shall all long rememlver this as one of the great line lvattles in Southwestern Maine Higll School footluall. The last game of the season, seheduled with Deering for Novemlver 15, was eaneeled due to the aeeideutal death ol' Raymond Costello, on November o, when at work in the Goodall Sanford Mills. Ray, regular right taelcle, had played each game with determination to carry out his assignments faithfully. Altliougli out- weighed hy many ot his opponents, ueyertlief less he held his own at all times. S'lUX'lllS'l'lCS First downs .........
