' - . 'igfsfff , . f, f . wx-n Come Off, Affzkzfzce . . . The Aviators, after practicing for two weeks, really let go against Minerva, last year's and this year's Tri-County League champs. The Aviators handed Minerva their only setback of the year by a score of 38 to 0. Hillis Hume scored six times to set a new record for touchdowns made in a single game. On the next Saturday afternoon the opening whistle started the Alliance team on another rampage to the tune of a 47 to 0 score. This was established at the expense of Bellevue, who came here with high ex- pectations but went home thoroughly de- feated. A scrappy Grove City crew held the Wingmen down to only one score during the first three quartersg but in the final period the Pilots scored thrice to win, 26 to O. The next weekend the Aviators rested before trying to conquer the Orange and Black Tiger in Massillon's newly built arena. Journeying to Massillon on Friday the 13th, the Alliance team received its only reverse Lefs G0 . . . of the season. The game ended, 47 to 0, after the Red and Blue fought courageous- ly for three quarters, but the iinal period was too much for the Skymen. The Yellow and Green of Cleveland John Hay attacked the Red and Blue so violently that the Aviators were able to punch across only one touchdown. Big Frank Zupanic scored after a long drive following the opening kick-off. Hillis Hume, Alliance's brain-trust, did not see action because of in- juries received in the Massillon fracas. Then the Canton McKinley Bulldog ven- tured into Alliance. He was sent home with his tail between his legs and a scoreless dead- lock scrawled upon his record. The only time that either team was close to scoring territory was early in the third period when Canton tried a field goal but failed. For the last three years the Aviators have been com- ing closer to beating the Bulldogs. In 1937, the score was 8 to Og in 1938, 33 to 263 in 1939, 0 to 0. The Barberton Magics could not pull Booster Club

the home economics department, where with modern equipment the girls produce a frock, a full course dinner, or a non-skid roast. Across the street in the Red Cross build- ing, home hygiene teaches the girls such homely things as how to make a bed. Back to school again, we visit the gen- eral science department, Where natural Won- ders are realistically portrayed by iilms. On the second floor aspiring secretar- ies are instructed in the mystic art of using all ten iingers to type, as well as in the use of more complicated business machines. Up above the clouds on the third floor, the chemistry, physics, and biology students are learning by the use of such articles as thistle tubes, volt meters, and pickled worms. Besides these specialized subjects, there are many other social, historical, and lan- guage courses in which the printed Word and the knowledge of the teacher are still the only means by which instruction can be given. These departments are every bit as necessary and important as the others, for every department is but a cog which helps to make Alliance High School go.

enough tricks out of the bag to even show against the Pilots. The Wingmen bowled over Barberton by a score of 40 to 0. The Aviators kept their home goal line from being crossed, thus establishing a new all- time record. On November 17 the team journeyed to Jamestown, New York. They set the Red and Green down and trampled on them for 31 points. However, Jamestown came back fighting and scored on the Birdmen, mak- ing the final score, 31 to 6. On Turkey Day the Quakers had noth- ing to be thankful for as far as football goes. The Skymen shellacked them, 44 to O. The game was the roughest of the year. Sixteen seniors closed their football reign very suc- cessfully. Hillis Hume scored three touch- downs to run his total to 138 points for the season. f2ll0l'll and Uourl' l'll01'l'I1'llil1'l'S in i , 'I 1- IIA, 1 4-fx, YEIILI 1 ii , .oz lure Abou-, fiom I1-Ft In TIIAIITI Mum I II 1 III II I ul 111 kl X I Ilmln I ll III-vnolds, Mary lfumplwll, I':xt 'lwmplr :ml I 1 tt I 1 5.

This was followed by a scoreless deadlock with Bergholz. In the next two games they were beaten by Mansfield and Massillon by scores of 7 to 0 and 26 to 7 respectively. These losses were followed with two wins to even up: Wadsworth, 13 to O, and Sebring, 12 to 0. The last game on the Frosh schedule was played as a preliminary to the Alliance- John Hay varsity game. The Freshmen were beaten by State Street, 7 to 0. Mr. Noyes McVay, the new Freshman football coach for 1939, majored in social science and physical education at Ohio State University. Aside from coaching the Freshmen he teaches at State Street Junior High, While attending Ohio State, he played varsity baseball for three years and was also on the champion speedball team for three years.
