The Norwalk High school football

* ' ball season by a victory ov the
’7 Greenwich High eleven. which re-

Ientiy defeated the Mamaroneck
‘ High team. It. was a bitterly fought

contest not“ decided until the final
.‘”~whistle. Greenwich desperately try-
. ing to overcome the early lead of the

. locals. they were unable to cross
, Norwalk‘s goal line until the final
" ‘quarter.

It would be hard to pick an indi-
vidual star. the team played like a
well oiled machine: all backfield men

, were consi tent ground gainers. not
once were ey thrown for a loss.
.T‘heir slogan seemed to be onward.
onward. never to be stopped and the
Greenwich gridders found great dif-
ficulty in trying to stop them. The
line though week at times seemed to
strengthen as the game progressed.
and in the later stages of the game
thoGreenwich backs found great
difficulty in trying. to break through
it. in the first period after the Nor-
walk backs had brought the ball
within the shadow of the goal it re-
mained for Buckley to make the first
score of the year for the local eleven.

 

 

 

He, however. failed to make the ex-‘

tra point. The longest run of that
‘ period wont to Bennett. local half—
back, who. aided by splendid inter-
ference ran 80 yards and put the ball
in 'scoring pesition. In the third
period Bennett intercepted a for-
ward pass and ran 70 yards for a
touchdown. On this play. he was
again aided by perfect interference.

Too much credit cannot be given
to Coach 080er and his gridders

must come in for some of the credit
made by the fine showing of the lo-
cals, said that he was elated by the
fine showing of the team and if they
continue to play the same brand of
football that they displayed yester—
day it will take a very strong organ-
ization” to trim them. Before the
game Mr. O’Boyle prophesied that
f‘Norwalk “would win by two touch-
downs. \Vhiie not altogether right
with his prophecy it showed the
confidence in the new men whom he
had been drilling.

The Eye will travel to New Haven ‘

on next Friday, where they will
tackle the strong Commercial High'
school of that city. Greenwich's
‘next rival in “Pop" Reilly's strong
Bridgeport eleven.

The game: '

Clifford. of Greenwich. kicked oil
to McGowan. local full-back, who re-
ceived. and carried the ball to Green-
wich's 30 yard line. O‘Brien and
Bennett made the necessary 10 yards
for first downs. On the next play.

\ Bennett broke away for a 30 yard,
run. and again the backs battered
the opponent's line and put the ball
within a scoring position, Captain
' Buckley carried it over. McGowan
kicked to Clifiord, Greenwich’s full-
’ back and he carried it to Norwalk's
20 yard line. The ball was in Nor—
walk's territory for the remainder
of the period. It was in this period
that Norwalk displayed its best
brand of football.
During this period the ball was in

Greenwich started off as if she

Cunningham. Greenwich back. broke
away for a (0 yard run and put the

climax came when Bennett. local

play not only put Norwalk more in

combine. Buckley kicked the extra
point. Greenwich had Just received

between teams A and B, in which a

there was another going over in

NEW HAVEN. Bopt.

George Weiss of the New Haven
Baseball Club 'would dispose of the
Profs this year and turn his atten-
tion to other lines of sports. prob-
ably to the purchase of some other
club. But George has something to
say'flout it today and be summed
up the situation laconically:

"Everybody seems to know as
much abcl' it as I do." he said.
"and I don‘t know anything about it.
Just at present I have no plans for
the future and probably will not un—
til the first pf the year."

And. in connection with all this.
the report circulated that A. 1!.
Powell. owner of the Worcester club.
was going to give up that club. and
take over the New Haven holdings.
Unfortunately Powell is away for
several weeks and cannot be reached
to verify or deny that. It is known.
however. that Powell has a large
holding in theJSoston Braves and is
not adverse to attaching himself to
the Profs. Whether he will. remains
to be seen.

the state of Connecticut. He was
awarded the decision on a foul over
Pete August of Bridgeport. in the
fifth round of their scheduled ten
round scrap at the State Armory
last night.- August started out in
great shape and his followers were
cheering him on at every point until
Referee “Jigger” McCarthy of New
Haven started to warn him about
kidney punching. August heeded
the warnings at first but he intend-
cd to win the fight and swung wild
a number of times. catching the
Huegenot City battler Just above the
belt.

In the fifth round August appear-
ed to bewoakening and he resorted
to hitting in the clinches sending in
a number of fast blows to Rocco's
kidneys which put the popular bat-
tler in intense pain. The referee.
plainly disgusted by August’s appar-

administer a farewell punch. Rocco

object paired on with his opponent

Rocco appeared at this stage of
the game. to have a slight advantage
over' his opponent. August cornered
Rocco a few seconds before the
gong and started to measure him
for his ‘coiflo. Rocco evidently
thinking that the bell was about to
