In a game, exciting and rough, the Squantum Naval Air School, football team defeated the Ground School for Aviators at Technology 7 to 0 on Soldiers' Field yesterday. The University was represented by three men on the Squantum eleven; H. C. Flower '19, a member of last year's University team, captained and played full back; W. Gaston '19, of the 1916 University squad played right end; and T. P. Grosvenor '20, was centre.
The first half showed how evenly the teams were matched. "No runs of any length were made, and the ball was in the middle of the field most of the time.
The third period brought the only score of the game. Successive rushes by Flower, with some assistance from the other backs and an eight yard skin tackle gain by Lynch, a former Yale player, placed the ball on the Technology two yard line.
From there Flower scored the touchdown on a line plunge. Lynch kicked the goal.
The Ground School by several clever forward passes almost tied the score in the last period.
The presence of the Radio School with their band and the many aviators added enthusiasm to the game.
The winning team lined up as follows: Winship, Pike, Sullivan, l. e.; Lynch, l. t.; Webster, l. g.; Grosvenor, c.; Hogan, r. g.; Connolly, r. t.; Gaston, r. e.; Adams, q. b.; Billings, Mahon, l. h. b.; Sheehan, r. h. b.; Flower, f. b.
