Left End Edwards

CHAPTER XII
25/27

Canterbury tried two plunges and then punted from her twenty-five-yard line to Brimfield's fifty.

Marvin caught and brought the stand to its feet by reeling off twelve yards across the field before he was downed.

Then Brimfield found herself and went down the gridiron by steady plunges, plugging the Canterbury line for good gains from tackle to tackle.

Norton, at full-back, was the hero of that period.

Time after time he took the pigskin and landed it for a gain.
Marvin, cool and heady, ran the team beautifully, and when four minutes of playing time remained, Brimfield was again knocking at Canterbury's door, the pigskin on the latter's eighteen yards.
"First down!" proclaimed Roy triumphantly.
