Richards RH Levandusky Al Richards FB Byars Touchdowns--Al Richard, Bornecamp, Nelson. Point after touchdown--Rossitter. Waukegan started their Homecom- ing Day celebration off in good shape, last Saturday, by winning a tight battle from the New Trier Freshman-Sopho- more team, 6 to 0 and beating La Grange in a two mile cross country run, 16 to 20. New Trier's varsity spoiled the day for them though and paid back last year's defeat by giving Waukegan's highly touted team a 19 to 0 drubbing. On the ground New Trier played a wonderful game. The aerial attack was not so good. Only two out of ten attempts at passing were completed. The passing can't be called a failure however, for one of the two successful passes scored a touchdown. Wau- kegan's passing was more certain. They made seven attempts and ¢com- pleted five. Morrie Nelson ran 70 yards for a touchdown in the last quarter and threw the pass on which Borncamp made the second touchdown. He made several other long runs too and was the outstanding star of the game. The Richards brothers were close behind him in gaining ground and Al Richards was responsible for New Trier's first score. Richards Scores Levandusky and Byars started the game off well for Waukegan by mak- ing a drive down the field that resulted in two first downs before the New Trier line got warmed up. The Gray- Green line got going in time to avert a touchdown though and New Trier captured the ball on a fumbled center. The drive started the other way then and New Trier didn't stop going until Al Richards fought over the line for New Trier's first touchdown. The attempt to score the extra point on a pass failed. The finish of the cross country run between La Grange and Waukegan came between the halves. George Lehto won the race for Waukegan with nearly half a lap to spare. He covered the two miles in 10:58.9. Morrie Nelson started the second half by fighting through center for 30 yards. This was the start of another New Trier drive which ended as suc- cessfully as the first. Morrie passed to Borncamp who caught the ball on the scoring side of Waukegan's goal line. Rossitter made a perfect place kick for the extra point. Nelson in 70-Yard Run After this Waukegan began to fight desperately and, chiefly through the efforts of Ewing and Byars, began to gain on the visitors. Ewing got off some long punts and made several big gains around end. Byars, a huge negro, was almost always good for a few yards through center. By the middle of the last period the New Trierites had been forced back to their own 30 yard line. Then Morrie in- tercepted an enemy pass, straight- armed Byars, who came at him like a charging bull, shook off the rest of the Waukegan team and sprinted to the goal line 70 yards away. Rossitter's kick for the extra point was unsuc- Tri-Ship Club to Entertain Members of Suburban League Attendance of sixty boys from the New Trier, Evanston, Deerfield, Oak Park, Morton, and Proviso high schools is expected this Saturday, at a meeting to be held at New Trier High school under the auspices of the Tri-Ship club. The six schools, each of which will send ten representatives, are members of a new Suburban High School league formed last spring. Fostering of more friendly relations among these schools is the ultimate aim of the gathering. An intermingling of the schools in forensic and in social and club affairs as well as on the athletic field is desirable, according to Donald Frisbie, faculty sponsor of the Tri- Ship club. Frederick A. Kahler, dean of boys at New Trier, who was recently elected president of the Suburban league, will speak at the meeting. George Cogs- well, president of the Tri-Ship club, will welcome the visitors. Alan Hoag- land is chairman of the club committee which has charge of arrangements for the conference. CHILDREN HAVE DANCE Mrs. Thomas W. Hearne, 1225 As- bury avenue, entertained the Children's Dancing club at her home last Friday evening. This club is composed of twenty four boys and girls of the seventh grade who will meet every two weeks during the winter at informal dancing parties given in their homes. cessful but that didn't matter much as the score was already: New Trier 19, Waukegan 0.
