In the sec- ond half Everett forced the ball down to the three- yard line, but by a piece of strategy by Coach Dickinson the line was strengthened and held for downs.

He is well fitted for the position, having played end for the team three years. Last year lie led the team to a championship, and his pros- pects are even brighter this year. Hccifcent A serious accident happened to Hager, of the Sophomore class, while playing against Tufts in a practice game. On a line plunge Hager, who was playing against a much heavier man, was under the pile. In some way his leg was doubled under him. When the play was stopped it was seen that Hager could not rise from the ground. On trying to place him on his feet, it was found that his leg was fractured, lie was taken to the Somerville Hospital. I'he loss of Hager was felt keenly by Coach Dickinson, as he was an aggressive player. We all hope to see him back to school soon, and wish him the best of luck while recovering. Somerville, 0; iBverett, 0 Somerville played its opening game on Broad- way field with Everett, and the game ended in a tie. During the early part of the game Somerville looked good for a touchdown,but Everett woke up

When this paper comes out the Somcrville- Waltham game will be a thing of the past, but here’s luck to the team. Charles Brickley. of Everett, is certainly very fast, and had it not been for Forg, who tackled him about three yards from the goal line, Somer- ville would have been beaten. In the excitement of the Waltham game, don’t forget that Rindge has one of the fastest teams in years. The Rindge game will be a great light, with Somerville the favorite. Coach Dickinson has had his share of trouble in accidents. Hager, with a fractured leg. “Bob Garland, with a dislocated shoulder, Buck Cald- well. with an abscess on the knee, and Ernest Fisher, with a sprained ankle, comprise the hos- pital list. The goal which Woodman kicked in the Boston Latin game was a beauty. Bug” certainly de- served it. as he has practiced faithfully. The Tufts football management showed its sportsmanship by voting to defray Hager's hos- pital bills. THE LITCHFIELD STUDIO H. W.
