New Trier added a sixth victory to the season's football record, which is marred only by the tie with Lindblom, by running up a 34 to 0 score against Streator, at Indian Hill, la:st Saturday. The g·ame was played on the 13ractice field opposite the varsity gridiron in order to save the regular field for the game with Evanston Thanksgiving Day. The downpour which beat upon the shivering spectators during most of the game changed the gridiron into a slip]2ery mess of mud and the game into a eomedy featured by plays that went over the referee and left him lying in a mud puddle, slides along the oozy field that gained more ground than most runs, kicks that bounced behind the kicker and many fumbles. Almost all the fumbles were recovered by New Trier and Kingsley fell on one behind the visitors' goal to score a safety. The new rainproof suits worn by the Grey-Green first team gave them a big advantage over their opponents. with their sopping wet uniforms. Streator was on the short end of the 1-;core by the fifth play of the game. Connor returned the kickoff by a beautiful run to the 20-yard line. Three line bucks · failed to get anywher and then Eaton caught a pass from Connor and raced over. the goal line. Raleigh Blake's dropkick was blocked. Streator made a strong bid for a score when one of the flashy red-jerseyed backs sped away for over 35 yards. He was tackled on New Trier's 20-yard line though and Coach Ashenbach sent in the first team to replace the second string, players who had started the game. They ~ot the ball by intercepting a Streator pass and pushed it rapidly out of their territory. Tom Hicks broke away for· about 40 yards and was downed onlv e ight yards from Streator's line. AI Richards plunged through center to the 3-yard line and Tom took the pigskin the rest of the way for Xew Trie r's ~econd OPEN CAGE SEASON The first of a series of interclass haskethall games was played this week at Millinckrodt High school.
