November 5, 1938 Saturday

S.U. At 9 o’clock left for Manchester with Uncle Carl and Alden. Met Bob over there and he came home with us. Keene, the underdog, favored to be licked by three touchdowns, tied mighty Manchester Central 12-12—our best game in years. Best I ever saw. Everyone was crazy from the start. We led 12-0 up to the last quarter, but then their strength told and we tired out. What a game!
