G ROWING
Stamford is growing as she never
grew before. She is working .harder
.., Rian ever on all of her propositions
end she is putting them through bet-
ter than ever. There are several rea-
sons for this, of course, but the main
one'is this: Everybody seems to be
ao-operating; everybody Beems busy
en the job. With that sort" of con-
dition, how can we fail 7 We are pret-
ty sure we cannot fail.—Stamford
Leader.
Evidences of Stamford’s growth are
^parent every day. The other day

Messina, stalwart Forest guard, fig-
ured in almost every play.
Not only was the score tied, but
the two teams were so evenly balanced
on first downs that it may take a
board of inquiry to gay which’ was
ahead. Forest piade seven first downs.
Cisco made six first downs, not count-
ing the two times the ball was car-
ried over, once from the 9-yard and
once from the 6-yard line. So it may
be that Cisco* made eight first downs
to Forest’s sev^n, and it may be For-
est seven to Cisco's six.
Aside from any mathematical con-
troversy, the game .was so closely
fought that neither team showed any
degree of superiority. If Forest was
on tHl offensive during the first half,
Cisco had the edge, in the final part
line. White gathered it to his bos-
om and sped down the field. Twist-
ing and darting here and there, he
was through the tangle of players
without even being tackled and. screes
the Cisco goal without alien sand ev-
er having touched his green jersey.
Owing to their train being delayed,
the Cisco rooters had not arrived wheir
the game started. As the girls’ pep
squad, 120 strong, eatnesurging in
at the gate, its members were amu- ;
ed, to learn that Forest already had
scored. The Loboes themselves seem-
ed dazed and they acted bewildered all
that first quarter.
