November 10, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 13 Winnetka Annexes Another Victory; Rainbow Team Next In a game which will long be remem- bered by those present, the Winnetka Football team last Sunday continued to march through the present season un- defeated. In doing so the locals de- feated the Chicago Unique A. C.'s, con- sidered one of the best teams in the Mid-West league, by a close score of 9-7. This game was undoubtedly the fast- est, hardest and cleanest fought con- test ever witnessed by the local grid enthusiasts on the Winnetka field. Starting the game favored by a small cross wind, Winnetka kicked off to the visitors who returned the ball to their 25 yard line, where they were forced to punt out of danger. Here Win- netka started its drive which eventually netted enough points to win the game. Line smashes and end runs by the locals brought the ball to the oppon- ents' 25 yard line, where, with a favored wind, Martin called for a placement kick which went over the cross bars for a perfect 3 points. This disheartened the Uniques little, for they accepted the next kickoff and, through marvelously executed plays, brought the oval to Winnetka's one yard line. With but six seconds to play, the visitors took a line plunge and made a touchdown. The half ended as they kicked the extra point, making the score 7-3. In the second half Winnetka received the ball and kept it throughout the game with the exception of about three minutes. Never was there seen on the local field such plunging as was made by Beach Affeldt. Beach, who only tips the scales at about 145 pounds, was just 145 pounds of dynamite. Be- fore the game was hardly started he tore off six to twelve yards on each effort. It was through his efforts that the locals finally succeeded in placing the oval on the opponents' five yard line, only to lose it on downs. On the first play the Uniques tried an end run but a fumble, recovered by them, lost three yards. The Uniques chose to kick on the next play, but Dahl, charging in fast, blocked it, and Con- ner fell on the ball across the goal line making the score 9-7 in favor of Winnetka. Martin missed the try for the extra point. Conner played a bang- up game at left tackle and few plays were sent at him after the opponents felt his strength. . Sunday Winnetka engages the Rain- bow A. C's who are another fast- stepping team from Chicago. Arrange- ments are nearly completed to have Deerfield and Highwood as the pros- pective guests on the two following Sundays. All games are played at the Skokie field and are open to the public free of charge. Katherine Hamilton Next Artist at Noon Concert Miss Katherine Hamilton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. I.
