Warrenton Fails To Score Against South Hill Eleven For two quarters the football players of the John Graham high school team battled the squad from South Hill on even terms at the local park on last Friday afternoon but were unable to overcome the 7-point lead made by the visitors in the first period of play or to prevent them from crossing their goal in the last quarter. The score at the final whistle was South Hill 14, Warrenton 0. Team play on the part of the visitors was superior to that offered by the locals, although there was playing by individuals on the Warrenton team that won the admiration of the spectators. It was individual against team work and the result was as is usual in that case. Harvel led the fight for the visitors. He was fast and heavy and offered much trouble to the locals. Terrell, Haitficock, and Poindexter were stars for the locals and Quarterback Red Drake played a game of football that is worthy of mention. The local team has not won a gpme since its organization this Fall, but their playing is growing better with each play, one who has watched all the game said yesterday. It was pointed out by this fan that manv of the local Dlayers had never seen a football game before this season and that their greenness was a handicap. He also said that there was much potent material on the team and with experience the local school should develop a powerful eleven. | Warrenton will play Windsor at Windsor this afternoon.
