On Saturday, October 16th, V. E. S. was defeated in football by W. F. S. However, nothing could hav•e dampened the school spirit that was shown throughout the entire game by both the team and the stands.
The work of Goldsmith and Day in the backfield was particularly good for V. E. S., Goldsmith hitting the line hard for long and repeated
o-ains while Day brought the stands b . .
to their feet several t1mes· by his
long end runs: Lewis and McCoy
played a nice game for V. E. S., both
breaking down Woodberry's defence frequently, even though they were
peated gains through the line, punt- ed and passed well, and backed up the line excellently. Floyd Day, at quarter-back, played a nice game, and made several long gains around ends.
In the line for V. E. S., Lewis and Walton played nicely. Both made several difficult tackles; and the lat- ter's passes at center were always good.
For Danville in the backfield Rine- hart and Hardaway played fine ball, the latter breaking away from our boys for a forty-yard run and touch- down, at the beginning of the fourth

Woodberry kicked off to .Goldy,
who ran the bail back fifteen yards, putting it on our thirty-yard line. Wilkinson tried the line twice for a total of eight yards, and Goldsmith went off-tackle for five yards and a first-down. Goldy tried the line again, and was successful. Day failed to gain, and Goldy kicked; the ball went out on Woodberry's ten-yard
line.
W. F. S. then tried end for three
