Seaforth High Edges
Goderich 7-5 Here
Marking up their eleventh
straight contest without a loss,
Seaforth High footballers held the
edge in most, play departments
there Monday afternoon to better a
game. Goderich High squad 7-5, The
win was the second for the local
team in as many starts in the cur-
rent season. Entered in the W.O.
S.S.A. rugby -football league, they
dumped Clinton 17-5 in the first
game October 1—and that score on
a foreign field.
Monday afternoon the air was
cool at Lions Park, but not so the
players. Goderich, old rivale of the
local eleven, provided plenty of
heat for both sides as they made
repeated •pushes, in the first quar-
ter to gain scoring position and
play in the -Seaforth end. Just as
often Seaforth pushed back. At
the quarter whistle the score was
0-0—and in favor of Seaforth at
that!
Locals Head 6-0 At Half
By the en.d of half time the score-
board had a different story to tell.
Marshalling his, men for a payoff
play, local. team captain Harry
Jacobi rang the bell himself when
he toted the ,pigskin over after -e
display of team strength
dosn-
fleld march of 70 yards on half a
dozen first downs. The big boot of
Sandy McMillan billed the ball to
count the convert and 'Seaforth's
energetic cheerleaders forgot their
goosepimples to whip up a vocal
salute for a 6-0 lead.
Eerly in three-quarter time the
ocals were reminded that the game
wasn't going to be a pushover.
Perry of Goderich nabbed the ball
behind the S.D.H.S. line for the
blue-ehirted opponents' first and
ast touchdown of the game.
In the last canto of the contest
Seaforth, nursing a one -point lead,
held claim to an edge on play. With
a tightened line and alerted ends
Goderich found their trouble in-
creasing in making any yardage at
all. Six minutes before final whis-
tle, Hackwell kicked deep in Gode-
rich ,territory to put the ball over.
Before a runner could get .out, Sills
nailed the hall and'nunner to score
he last point.
