Waterville received the kick-off and marched forty yards down the field and it looked like it might be a Waterville day but the home team strengthened and held Waterville for downs and then- marched straight down the field for a touchdown. Washington continued the good work throughout the rest of the game for when the final whistle blew the score stood 72 to 0 in favor of Washington. The feature of the game was probably at the beginning of the second half, when Coach Darby sent in Snyder, Rhoades, Swan and Lobaugh in the backfield and Hutton as center.

These five players wore playing their last game Washington as they will graduate this year. This charged the players from their the Thanksgiving vacation with the i former's parents. Miss Taylor's sis 11 I A 1 I ter, Miss Lyla returned with them for Phone your news to 67. a short visit. A I.
