Althohgh the Morris team showed the greater drive and spirit' they were unable to get inside the 20-yard line. The team from the Unadilla valley showed lack of pep and ambi tion and consequently gained little yardage. Individual defensive work of Green, Hazard, Dye and McIntyre was largely responsible for stopping of the Morris offensive. This Saturday the team goes to Sidney to open the league schedule. In order to win this opener the boys will have to play- considerably more football than they have demon strated in the past two games. It’^ is hoped that all of the invalids will be back on the job ready to go places and do things. Fifth Grade (Gladys Petersen, reporter) Last Friday we made some masks.
