The Medford eleven was possessed of plenty of confidence and aggressive- ness and with Gordon Mangles, the star of the game, practically upset Somerville eleven. Som- erville lacked confidence and made many fumbles and costly mistakes. The greater part of the game was played on Somerville’s territory. The Somerville line put up a good defense and checked Medford’s plays through the line. ' Dur- ing the second half a costly fumble by the Som- erville backfield was scooped up by Blair, who ran 45 yards for a touchdown. After this Med- ford resorted entirely to a kicking game. Begien, in the last quarter, dropped a pretty kick which just cleared Somerville’s cross bar. Capt. Treat played a sensational game, while Paasche was much in evidence.

The football season is here. The team, led by Cap. Treat, is backed by last season’s steady play- ers. Stevens. Paasche, Jack Reardon and Patten. Although the lack of candidates was disappoint- ing to Coach O’Donnell, still a remarkable team has been formed. The epidemic was a slight set- back but the boys are now there with more pluck and pep than ever. This is the time the boys need your support; show them you are there strong and it will make them fight harder for the Red and Blue. All together now and back your team. Somerville, 34; Battery Wharf, 0 Somerville met its first opponent, October 20, at Somerville Field, when she vanquished a naval eleven from Battery Wharf by the score of 34 to 0. The plays were few in number, but were carried off with unusual snap. Dowd, playing full back, made several noticeable plays and Capt. Treat fitted well into his new position at tackle. Somerville’s first score was the result of a 35- yard end run by Dowd, followed by Donaldson going over in a straight line plunge. Somerville then kicked off, regained the ball on downs, and Tom Reardon romped over for the second score. The third score was a long run by Dowd for a touchdown. The fourth score was made possible by a 20-yard run by Patten and a forward pass to Cook. Tom Reardon then pushed the ball over. Dowd made the final touchdown after steady progress down the field. The lineup was con- stantly changed, but the opening positions were as follows: Somerville Nigh Battery Wharf Cook, Chase, le...................................re, Cronin Treat.

Somerville Masters Malden Somerville started its first league game by de- feating Dave Morey’s team IS to 0. Although the score would indicate that Malden was boldly out- classed, such was not the case. The game was fea- tured by hard, clean and interesting football from the kickoff to the whistle. Straight football was used for the most part by both teams, for end runs and forward passes met with little success. Both elevens tackled hard and low and seldom did a player get away Patten, Treat, Tom Rear- don. Paasche and Stevens played fine football for Somerville, while in Malden’s lineup Loud and Hopkins were much in evidence.
