Normal kicked off to Jarvis, who fumbled but dropped on the ball. After a few short gains. Som- erville lost the ball on a fumble. Sharry was hurt, and his place taken by W. Henderson. Normal threatened our goal, but we held for downs. Nor- mal tried a drop for goal, but it was blocked by Hall. Soon after a punt by S. H. and L. was also blocked. The sensational play of the day came when a Normal man ran fifty yards for a touch- down. The goal was kicked, and the half closed with the score »- . In the second half Somerville kicked off to Nor- mal. Freeman replaced Henderson at end. After several long gains. Normal scored again, but failed to kick the goal. At this stage of the game Som- erville buckled down to work, and Young went •over for the only touchdown. The goal was kicked, making the score 11-0. The game was called on account of darkness. For Somerville, Young was easily the star, while O'Brien, of Normal, did good work for his team. The line-up:— BR11)G KW ATE R X R M A L. SOM FRY ILLE. Hoolev, l.e.....r.e.. 11.

Somerville, 30; Balden, 0 With the odds two to one against us. and the Malden team fresh from an overwhelming victory over Dorchester, the blue and gold, headed by the crack ex-Dartmouth end. Bullock, sailed over the muddy Mystic. and we swamped them. Our team never played better; the team work was great, the offense irresistible, and the defense a stone wall. Malden played a good game, but our heavier team mowed them right down, and hardly a rush from first to last but what laid out a Malden man. Malden kicked off to Baldwin, who ran it seven yards. Somerville soon punted. Malden lost around the end. and then punted. After plunges by Driscoll and Baldwin. Somerville punted, and Malden punted back to Twohig, who ran it twenty yards. Baldwin made eight: Commins, eight; Driscoll, ten; Commins, six; Hall went over for a touchdown and kicked the goal. With the same steady plunging and a 45-yard run. the second touchdown was made by Driscoll. Hall kicked the goal. Again the Malden team could not stop us. and Hall made another touchdown and kicked the goal. In the second half, although many subs were put in. the same fierce work was kept up, the men with the ball most always making more than their distance, and two more touchdowns were made by Driscoll and Commins. Hall kicked both goals. Twohig was back in the game for the first time since the Groton game, and played well. Driscoll. Commins. and Baldwin were always good, and Cuddy. Bowlby. Henderson, and Rice played fine ball. One of the features was Hall's goal-kicking. The line-up:— SC M ER VIIAJE. M A LDEN. II.

Somerville soon had the ball near the goal-line again, where, after a se ries of fumbles. Baldwin was sent over for a touch- down. Hall again kicked the goal. In the second half Somerville played nearly a new team. When within scoring distance, they lost the ball on a fumble, and Landrigan, attempt- ing to punt out. was nailed behind the line for a safety. Groton, 12; Somerville, 0 October 4 Somerville played the strong Groton team at Groton, and. after putting up one of the poorest exhibitions of football that a Somerville team could, was defeated. 12-0. Somerville kicked off to Groton on her 30-vard line. Watcrbury fumbled on the next rush, the ball going to Somerville, who. however, was not able to gain, and the ball went to Groton on downs.

The rest of the half Groton played a kicking game. Somerville inevitably losing the ball on downs or fumbles. Twohig was hurt in a fierce scrimmage, and had to leave the field, Henderson taking his place. The second half Groton kicked off to Commins, but Somerville lost the ball on downs. Groton punted to Jarvis, who dropped the ball. Groton se- curing it. Groton then worked a trick play that completely fooled Somerville, and carried the ball around for another touchdown. Bacon again kicked the goal. The rest of this half was the repetition of the last part of the first half, Groton twice punting behind the goal-line for touchbacks. The game ended without any more scoring. For Groton. Watcr- bury and Thayer played the best game, while Som- erville’s work as a team was conspicuously off color. The line-up:— GROTC) N.
