1919 ELEVEN DOWNED BY WORCESTER ACADEMY

IN GAME FILLED WITH INJURIES FRESHMEN EXPERIENCED 20 TO 0 DEFEAT.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Worcester Academy defeated the Freshman football team at Worcester on Saturday afternoon by the score of 20 to 0, scoring all three touchdowns in the first period. Worcester's plunging game swept the Freshman line off their feet, and Kelley crossed the goal-line a few minutes after the start. The Freshmen received next, and were forced to punt. Kelley caught the ball in midfield and carried it across for the second touchdown. A few minutes later Kelley and Larkin executed a forward pass that went over the line for the third score.

Worcester Players Very Heavy.

The Worcester players were very heavy, and the Freshman line could not hold. 1919 only threatened once, when Flower's 47-yard run put the ball in Worcester's territory; but the opposing linesmen broke through on the next two plays and tackled the backs for eight and two-yard losses, and Felton was forced to punt. The game was marred by frequent injuries on both sides. Of the Freshman team Coolidge broke his leg, Canfield broke a bone in his ankle, and Flower had a muscle torn in his left thigh.
