On account of the late opening of school, the season was necessarily a short one, and there was very little time either to 'train a team or to play outside games. In addition to this, it was thought inadvisable to have teams from other schoolsvisit St. George's, owing to the possibility of their bringing influenza with them. Consequently all outside games werecancelled and all the football energies of the school were bent towards producing successful teams to represent the clubs Sakonnet and Sachuset. M r. Nevins coached Sakonnet and developed a strong line and a fast backfield. Sach11est was coached by Mr. Wheele1'. He found himself supplied with a strong back- field, but the line was sadly lacking. ln spite of this, he produced a team which played good football and gave Sakonnet a hard fight. . Sakonnet opened the season auspiciously on Saturday, November 3d,'by defeating Sachuest in 11 Close, well played game. In the first quarter James intercepted one of Sachuestls forward passes and ran for a touchdown. ln the second quarter Sachuest received the ball on a punt to their three C.11 1'. R15YNol.us yard line. Here Nobles picked up the ball on a fumble and made Sakonnet's second touchdown. For the remainder of the game neither side was able to score. Un VVednesday, November 13th, the teams played a hard-fought game which ended in a tie. Neither side scored, although Sakonnet reached their opponent's fifteen yard line. . Sakonnet won their second victory on November 16th. The play was very close at first and at the end of the first half the score was seven to seven. ln the second half Sakonnet worked two forward passes which carried the ball to Sachuest's twenty yard line and from there Nobles took it over after rushing the line three times in succession. ln the last few seconds of play Sachuest fumbled a punt on their three-yard line and Keith recovered the ball. Bray- ton made a touchdown on the next play. The final score was 21-7. The season closed on November 27th in a game in which Sachuest was again defeated. Sachuest received the ball on the kick-off, but on the very first play Keith intercepted a forward pass and ran for a touchdown. After that neither side scored, although at one time Sachuest reached Sakonnet's twenty yard line. Besides the first club teams, second and third teams were also organized and they played a number of games. Sak- onnet made a clean sweep of the series described above: Sachuest won the second team series and the third teams each won two games. Sakonnet Won the championship for 1918 by IQM points to 7. - Although no games were played with other schools, letters were awarded to the twelve men who would probably have won them had there been a school team. Reynolds was the Captain-elect .for 1918 and Keith was chosen captain for the coming season. Seven of these letter men and six other members of the 1918 club teams will be at school again this fall. With s11ch a large number of experienced players on hand a strong team will certainly be developed and there is little doubt that the season will be a successful one. P. 72
